This book just didn't do it for me. I normally do really enjoy a quick read when I am looking for something to fill a small bit of time, so the length isn't an issue. But, that being said, I do think that this was a GREAT idea for a story and probably would have benefited by being novel length so that there could be some development. I just never had the time needed to get to know or care about the characters. As a avid female gamer myself, I totally get the storyline here. And I really appreciate the effort to make a statement with this plot. Again, this was a good story idea that would have been better off longer and more developed. One small final note: I don't think this should have the word "erotica" in the title. What little love/sex scenes there were were very bland and definitely NOT of the erotica variety. So, if you're looking or a book with heat, this is not it.
