    Description

    Debut author Sally Thorne bursts on the scene with a hilarious and sexy workplace comedy all about that thin, fine line between hate and love. 

    Nemesis (n.)
    1) An opponent or rival whom a person cannot best or overcome.
    2) A person's undoing
    3) Joshua Templeman 

    Lucy Hutton has always been certain that the nice girl can get the corner office. She's charming and accommodating and prides herself on being loved by everyone at Bexley & Gamin. Everyone except for coldly efficient, impeccably attired, physically intimidating Joshua Templeman. And the feeling is mutual. 

    Trapped in a shared office together 40 (ok, 50 or 60) hours a week, they've become entrenched in an addictive, ridiculous never-ending game of one-upmanship. There's the Staring Game. The Mirror Game. The HR Game. Lucy can't let Joshua beat her at anything—especially when a huge new promotion goes up for the taking. If Lucy wins this game, she'll be Joshua's boss. If she loses, she'll resign. So why is she suddenly having steamy dreams about Joshua and dressing for work like she's got a hot date? 

    After a perfectly innocent elevator ride ends with an earth-shattering kiss, Lucy starts to wonder whether she's got Joshua Templeman all wrong. 

    Maybe Lucy Hutton doesn't hate Joshua Templeman. And maybe he doesn't hate her either. Or maybe this is just another game.

    Slow Burn!

    Very enjoyable SLOW BURN! Loved the writing style and the story line. The characters were fun and realistic and the love story was sweet. Very light on sex and the one sex scene is very PG. The narration is not bad, It would have been better as a dual narration.

    Do not read negative reviews! This was a new favorite!

    I have listened to 100s of audiobooks and the was by far one of my favs! Well written, interesting characters and story. I will not forget Josh and Lucy anytime soon! Treat yourself to a funny, cute, lovable story with a fantastic narrator! This one will be hard to follow!

    Didn't want it to end!

    What did you love best about The Hating Game?

    Sally Thorne has done it -- a rare 5-star review from me. But, because everyone is looking for something different in a read, I'll describe why I loved it. Her pacing of the book is deliciously excruciating... the story arc builds slowly and credibly, with depth and realistic scenarios. The characters are flawed and believable. The "steam" factor is hot not because of crude language and hyperbole, but because of her descriptions and ability to capture the eroticism of their inner thoughts. The narrator did an excellent job of voicing Lucy -- I think she was the perfect pick to capture Lucy's inner monologues. She did a nice job with Joshua's voice, but it was hard at times to distinguish between what he was saying and what he was thinking. Overall, it was a fantastic listen, and I will be on the lookout for her next book.

    What other book might you compare The Hating Game to and why?

    The buildup between Joshua and Lucy was similar to that of Dex and Rachel's in 'Something Borrowed' by Emily Giffin.

    Have you listened to any of Katie Schorr’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    Performance

    Any additional comments?

    I never write reviews but I had to warn everyone: this story is okay, not great but not bad. However, the narrator was awful, you could hear her drinking water, swallowing heavily. Just super distracting and took a lot away from the story.

    Listen Again

    This book was unexpected for me. I love that it wasn't all about a blooming love. It was more complex and sweet and frustrating than a normal romance book. I love the office setting. This is the first audible book that I have wanted to listen to again.

    Sweet and Funny Romance

    Loved the romance. The tension is just right for the enemies-to-lovers trope mixed with a good amount of humour. The narration was a bit frustrating because most of the time I couldn't distinguish between Josh's and Lucy's voices so it could get confusing. Having said that the narrator has a pleasant voice so I'd still give the narration 4 stars. The story itself definitely deserves 5+ stars. I'd highly recommend it.

    Not enough plot

    Too repetitive and it draaaaags on until it is boring. I wish I could find a redeeming aspect to this book.

    Disappointing

    Would you try another book from Sally Thorne and/or Katie Schorr?

    Not from Sally but I like Katie as a narrator and would listen to her books again.

    What could Sally Thorne have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

    Would have liked more focus on the hating aspect of their relationship. Thought this would have been a hate to love relationship but Lucy and Josh seemed to be in love from the beginning. Would also like more dialogue in the first part of the book. Too much narration and way to much horny, sex talk for my liking.

    What about Katie Schorr’s performance did you like?

    Perfect voice for Lucy. Exactly how I would picture her voice to be.

    Was The Hating Game worth the listening time?

    No

    Any additional comments?

    Very heavy sex talk and description. Be warned. Also lots of foul language.

    Super fun book

    Any additional comments?

    What a great story with fantastic male and female lead characters. I loved it from page one to the last page. In fact I listened to it all in one sitting. It is a good thing I am retired because I listened all night! It really is funny and sweet. I got aggravated at the male lead from time to time but eventually fell in love with him. I don't see how you can go wrong choosing this book. I is well worth the credit - I would even give two credits for it in retrospect. The performance was excellent. The reader does great male and female voices. You forget that she is the reader because she does not get in the way of the story - she just lets you live it.

    Childish/Immature Main Character

    Any additional comments?

    The main character, Lucy, should have been playful, clever, and strong, instead she came across as clingy, childish, dependent, and vapid. I could not finish the book because of how annoying Lucy became.

    Also, the narrator was fine except you could hear her swallow. It was really gross and should have just been edited out.

    Zu langwierig

    Die ersten Kapitel noch ganz unterhaltsam, aber dann wird's eher langwierig. Die Geschichte, die Handlung der beiden Hauptfiguren ist eher albern, oberflächlich, sie haben meine Sympathy nicht erwecken können.

    Die Protagonistin sinnt immer wieder mal über die selben Fragen, was ziemlich irritiert. Dieses Audiobuch hat mich öftermals gelangweilt. Hätte ich es als Buch gekauft, hätte ich bestimmt Seiten übersprungen.

    Do you know that feeling when you just want to listen to a heartwarming story where you don't have to think? Perfect book. :)

    Am Anfang geht es etwas langsam los, wird dann aber echt unterhaltsam und kurzweilig. Kein must read, aber sehr nette Unterhaltung!

    The girls that get it, get it.

    One of my favourite contemporary romances of all time! Kate Schorr really embodied Lucy‘s character for me, I could not imagine a better fitting narration. This book is well worth the hype, even though it’s not going to be for everyone :)

    Chauvinistischer Blödsinn

    The Hating Game ist eine vollkommen lieblos hingerotzte Geschichte ohne erwähnenswerte Handlung.
    Es ist eine Aneinanderreihung uninteressanter Detailbeschreibungen des Liebesspiels der beiden Hauptprotagonisten.
    Und das Ärgerlichste an dem Buch ist, dass hier eine emanzipierte, aufstrebende junge Frau beschrieben werden soll, die sich dann aber dem Mann komplett unterordnet. Das geht so weit, dass sie sich auf Wunsch des Mannes quasi prostituieren muss (einen anderen Mann soll sie küssen). Und anstatt, dass sie dem dummen Saftsack für so ein vermessenes Anliegen ordentlich eine verpasst, verabredet sie sich mit diesem anderen Mann und überwindet sich zu besagtem Kuss. Man muss wohl nicht erwähnen, dass diese Handlung obendrein vollkommen unnachvollziehbar und plump ist.
    Ich musste mich jedenfalls derartig ärgern, dass ich mich komplett durch dieses Hörbuch gequält habe, nur um jetzt guten Gewissens diese Rezension verfassen zu können.
    Die Sprecherin war wenigstens sehr gut. Entschädigen tut das leider nicht.

    It's fatphobic.

    In the first 30 minutes, there were two mentions, that fat people are bad. The main character says, the man she hates should actually be a fat person, because that would resemble his character better. And she calls her Boss a fat something. This just gets boring...

    4.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Now we come to this book that I really wanted to read through a picture I saw on Instagram where the two protagonists were drawn. So I heard it as an audio book and was positively surprised how much I liked it. I liked Lucy and Josh as a single character but especially together. The dynamic they both had was just wonderful and there was always something to laugh about. I had a lot of fun listening to it, and overall I liked the story of the competition who gets a new and refreshing job. In addition, there was a twist for me at the end that I didn't see coming, but I'm glad to have heard the story. I would recommend it to anyone, it's definitely fun.
