Description
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER . From the author of Dungeons and Drama comes another gaming romance that's sure to win you over!
Quinn Norton is starting over at a new high school and hopes that joining a D&D game will be the trick to making friends. The plan sounds even better when she's invited into a group that includes Logan Weber, the cute and charming guy she met on her first day of class. But this isn't your average D&D campaign- this group livestreams their games and enforces strict rules- no phones allowed, and no dating other group members.
Quinn is willing to accept the rules, even if it makes Logan off-limits. And she quickly learns that doing so won't be a problem, since Logan goes from charismatic to insufferable as soon as she agrees to join. As their bickering-and bantering-intensifies inside and outside the game, Quinn can't help wondering- Is Logan's infuriating behavior a smokescreen for hidden feelings? Quinn is risking it all, and the twenty-sided dice are rolling!
Review
Quinn’s family has just moved house to be closer to her ageing, but feisty, Grandma. Or was part of the reason Quinn’s hurt after the destructive breakup of her Dungeons and Dragons group? Either way, her Grandma gets a group of students to take their photo on Quinn’s first day at her new school, and she is instantly attracted to the boy that helped out, Logan.
Turns out that Logan and his friends have their own streamed, intense D&D crew and she is asked to join. Logan is against it, but we soon realise that this is because he also likes Quinn, and the group have a rule of no dating within the team. Surely that will make things very difficult!
With a likable cast, particularly Quinn’s Grandma, who still has much to do in this life, and an inevitable friend to dating storyline, this is a rather delightful gaming romance. There are the usual friendship issues, and the drama of moving house and making new friends, but Quinn’s group is great. The growing angst between her and Logan, who really just want to be together is the highlight of the story. Very easy to read, this is a story that will be enjoyed by both gamers and those that love a good romance, particularly those in lower and middle secondary.
