Book Review | Game Changers by Rachel Reid
Notes, quotes, & final thoughts; a review that’s honest, thoughtful, and a little chaotic
I’m a big fan of reading a book before I watch the screen adaption and I finally started the Game Changer series (better known as the Heated Rivalry series due to the name of the show) after being heavily influenced by my friend Saadia. I was told the show covers books 1 and 2, so I’m going to dive into the second book right away so I can finally watch the show!
In case you missed it, Heated Rivalry is EVERYWHERE and people are obsessed with the show and the actors - for good reason, have you seen HudCon?! 🔥😳😍 Important note; the show is based on the Game Changers series and the first book is Game Changer, not Heated Rivalry. I prefer to read a series in order so I’m glad I checked before stating this!

Quick take: I used my first Everand unlock of the year on the ebook and loved it! I enjoyed it so much that I’m planning to use my monthly Everand unlock on the rest of the series and will eventually plan to buy physical copies if they do special editions or as a special boxed set once the full series is complete.
