Review: This Gorgeous Game by Donna Freitas

Date Read: July, 2012

High schooler and aspiring writer Olivia Peters has just won a writing contest. The prize: Not only publication of her story, but being mentored by her idol and acclaimed writer/priest Father Mark D. Brendan. At a glance, this is Olivia's dream come true at meeting and befriending Father Mark and one step closer in becoming a successful writer. But quickly, Father Mark's attention towards Olivia becomes obsessive, trapping Olivia in a strange cat-and-mouse game that she is desperate to stop. A short novel but packed with tension and tenderness, "This Gorgeous Game" is a riveting tale.
