This was a really fun book to read. I loved the setting at the video game company. Seeing what goes on behind the scenes was the best part of the book. The mystery was interesting. Lexy was a great character. I hated her relationship with Nate, but so does everyone else in the book, so the author knows it is not a great relationship. I want to read the next 2 in the series.
Too short to get an actual idea of the author's work, appeared ok.

"Schooled" didn't hook me right off the bat. It starts off with a sex scene, and the author made it very very obvious that the gaming company was Microsoft. I mean, the console is called "Xenon24/7" and the company is in Redmond, WA. Charter spent eight years as a writer and community manager for Xbox Live, and guess what Lexy's job title is?
But I kept going, and I'm glad I did. The story had some plot elements I wasn't expecting at all, and the writing was pretty solid. I liked that the author was up front about the sexism in the gaming industry, too; I have female acquaintances who work at game companies, and I've heard stories, and Charter has obviously dealt with the same sort of crap.
To sum up, it's a fun and engrossing book with a couple of flaws. Definitely worth reading!… (mais)
