Review: Don't Judge a Book By Its Cover...or a Person By What They Project On the Outside
Rating: 5 out of 5

This book has a mixture of several genres I love. Part suspense, part horror and part mystery, with more twist and turns than most and a main character with a wicked sense of humor that's always fun to read. Jimmie has a caring side underneath his sarcasm. And he was someone I could empathize with, as I thought back to my own teenage years and others' negative impressions of me due to my very quiet nature. In that way, I think many could empathize with the character.Which leads me to what I like about Mug's Game best of all...how it takes society's profiling of someone and turns the concept on its head. And I love when chapters end on cliffhangers. Makes it hard to close the book.
