Rating: 4.5 Stars In The Forbidden Game, L.J. Smith has created a world that is not only haunting and real, but also remarkably unique. In the genre of YA Fiction, unique is not a word we hear very often. Words like amazing character development, kick-ass heroine, and paramount themes are also not common words used to describe the majority of novels that have been released in YA in the past couple of years. Yet, these were all phrases that I used while writing my reviews of theI don't know what there is to say except that L.J. Smith's works have aged amazingly well.If you want high quality YA trash romance, she is the author to go to.
What is amazing about this series is how easy it would be for L.j .Smith to have given into fans and just let Julian have Jenny and turn her into a prop. Instead, Jenny grew stronger as a character - something that the feminist in me loves. Her friends are not merely props to make Jenny look better, in fact, they have their own subtext and growth. Tom, the boyfriend, isn't made to look like some abusive boyfriend, but learns to appreciate Jenny. And then, there's Julian, who is evil and yet

Jenny Thornton starts out being the typical YA heroine: magnetic, beautiful, and universally adored. If she giggled more, she might be Cher Horowitz. She has a jock boyfriend and a group of friends that could be models for a Gap ad. She throws a party for her boyfriend and buys a game from a beautiful, alien-like boy named Julian. As you may guess, Julian is a supernatural who is madly, deeply, insanely in love with her and has been since she was a child.All of this may seem off-putting, but
O. MY. GOSH.my life is complete now that i have read this book.My absolute favorite character was Julian, he brought an essence of scariness but hotness to it all.Hated tom, and i wanted to slap Jenny every time she thought about him.I bawled so freaking hard at the end of the book, (my mascara was running)I wish Julian and Jenny could have been together.This is my all time favorite book!
I've been sitting here staring at the screen for over an hour trying to decide how to put how I feel right now in words; I'll try my best.I have read a lot of books and given 5 stars for several of them... After reading this, I think I need to go back and change all those books to 3 stars. Nothing I've read so far can compare, nothing. Reading all 750 pages in less than 24 hours is proof of that. Yes, I have bags under my eyes from lack of sleep but it was so worth it. Everything this book had
