I've postponed typing up my review bc I am unsure of my thoughts. This book has quite a bit of spice.... it's just that these are allegedly high-school aged kids, and so it's a bit awkward and beyond that unrealistic. But if we put that to the side, I quite enjoyed the stalker portion of the story and will more than likely drag book two bc I'm a nosey bitch and have to see how it all ends!
Overall, it's a decent book, but not my favorite. I did enjoy it enough to check out book 2 and even consider other titles from the author.
