I was hooked instantly the first time that I played it.
There are a few downsides.....it says that it is freeplay, however, you have to pay for certain things or wait a long time to accumulate simoleons, which can be frustrating. I also like the fact that there is different tasks on a weekly basis, which definitely keep the game interesting.
Also, you need to have friends in order to complete the social tasks, which I feel takes away part of the fun of the game. You have to have a "social media" account to be able to complete the tasks.
Overall though, I love this game, It never gets boring!!

If you're one of those people who's paranoid about every little thing they post on social media.....maybe don't read this one.
I was hooked from the very beginning. We jump back and forth between the main story, told by pregnant Taylor who has just moved to London from California with her formerly cheating husband, and the thoughts of a social media stalker. It's not immediately clear whether the stalker is male or female, which adds to the mystery. What is clear is that this stalker is very angry, and very skilled in the art of stalking via social media.
I found it interesting that the author throws us such an obvious red herring in Simon. Ok yeah, he was a little creepy, but I think he was just lonely and weird. Similarly, Caroline was far too obvious a choice for the stalker, as she knew "Jake the Rake" back in primary school and seemed standoffish and full of herself to begin with. These things are explained in the story, at which point I thought "oh, so THAT'S why he/she is like that."
About 80% through, I had convinced myself that it was most likely the woman who Jake previously cheated with, who is now obsessed with him and wants him all to herself. I was wrong, but honestly, NOT THAT WRONG. His ex-wife? What?? At no point in the story do we ever hear about Jake having been married, and it's clear after the reveal that Taylor also had no idea.
While I thoroughly enjoyed this story, I felt the ending was a bit abrupt and could've given us a bit more.
