Game On (Book Review: The Boyfriend Game by Stephie Davis)

"The Boyfriend Game" is a cute, short read. I have been reading some YA things recently. Sometimes when you get to be as old as I, you long for days of youth and I may be going through a reminiscing phase lately - not that I had the same experience as this story, mind you. Trisha, the main character in this novel, is a teenager whose biggest goal of the moment is getting into the Varsity Soccer team, and she isn't really interested in boys. That is, until she meets Graham, who helps her train. They spend afternoons together, playing soccer together, and well, you can guess what happens next. The story is paced pretty well, and the characters are believable, if chaste and wholesome. You don't have to use your brain to fully appreciate this book, you just have to have a heart.
