About this audiobook
OMG, queen of mean Madison Parker in a brand new series. It’s claws out in the fight to become Hollywood’s brightest star…
Madison Parker made a name for herself as best frenemy of nice-girl-next-door-turned-reality-celeb Jane Roberts in L. A. Candy. Now she’s ready for her turn in the spotlight and she’ll stop at nothing to get it.
But with backstabbing friends and family, relentless paparazzi, and tabloid scandals she can’t control, Madison is going to have her work cut out for her. Plus, there’s a new nice girl in town – Carmen Price, the daughter of Hollywood royalty – who’s a lot more experienced than Jane was at playing the fame game. . .
Filled with characters both familiar and new, Lauren Conrad’s new series about life in front of the camera dishes Hollywood gossip and drama at every turn.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Well, color me pleasantly surprised. I don’t want to overstate it, this wasn’t a fantastic book, it wasn’t all that well written, and I’m not going to start recommending it to friends. But compared to my experience with Conrad’s first novel, L.A. Candy, this was a good read.Technically a spin-off series, The Fame Game follows Madison Parker (from the L.A. Candy series) as she is cast for a new reality show called, appropriately enough, The Fame Game. The usual Hollywood hijinks and backstabbing occur, but there is another storyline where Madison’s sister, Sophia, shows up with their long absentee father in tow. It’s a twist I didn’t expect from this kind of story, and it really drew me in. (Daddy issues are universal!)Again, like with L.A. Candy, The Fame Game doesn’t end. It’s the first in a series, so while there is a “plot twist” in the last chapter, there is no ending per se. However, I can honestly say I enjoyed the story enough that I would be interested in reading the next book in the series (titled Starstruck) if I came across it.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Good book about the trials of being a celebrity reality star. Enjoyed the aspects of just how boring the whole thing is and how much the girls have to keep secrets from each other in order to get the producers happy. Too much language (f....) and wish that that had been left off and it might be OK for the school.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Interesting take on the contestant side of reality shows, with beautiful people, of course. Well written, storyline was a little weak, but okay (just like a reality show!) Obvious lead in to a sequel...
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Fast read about fame-seeking girls in LA. It is fun to guess which character is based on which real life reality star LC knows.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Lauren's writing abilities have noticeably increased since her first novel. I wouldn't say I loved this story but I did find myself much more entertained than I did with the prior novels. I actually think I would like to read the next installment.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is truly embarrasing...but I love, absolutley love, Lauren Conrad's books, so far. All of them. The LA Candy series, and now this one. It must be because she knows so much about the world behind reality TV, or something, because I ate this book up. I read it in basically one day, loving the new characters and still hating Madison, and being annoyed by Gaby. I really do miss Jane and Scarlett, but I LOVE Kate, the singer-songwriter in the book. She's the most down-to-earth; the most likeable. I do, however, like how the book is basically done from Madison's perspective because it makes it hard to completely hate her, and a book is no fun when you hate the main character. This book was really good. I really liked it, maybe a little more than LA Candy. But, still. It's a great read. You should read it, for sure!
