Title: Deadly Little Secret
Author: Laurie Faria Stolarz
Publication Date: 2008
Publisher: Hyperion Book CH
Up until three months ago, everything in sixteen-year-old Camelia's life had been fairly ordinary: decent grades; an okay relationship with her parents; and a pretty cool part-time job at the art studio downtown. But when Ben, the mysterious new guy, starts junior year at her high school, Camelia's life becomes anything but ordinary.
Rumored to be somehow responsible for his ex-girlfriend's accidental death, Ben is immediately ostracized by everyone on campus. Except for Camelia. She's reluctant to believe the rumors, even when her friends try to convince her otherwise. She's inexplicably drawn to Ben...and to his touch. But soon, Camelia is receiving eerie phone calls and strange packages with threatening notes. Ben insists she is in danger, and that he can help--but can he be trusted? She knows he's hiding something... but he's not the only one with a secret.
From the best-selling author of Blue is for Nightmares comes a story of paranormal romance that's sure to be a thrilling and chilling teen favorite.
My Review
It is true that this book was fast paced where I kept flipping on the pages eagerly to find out what happens, but the only thing that was enjoyable for me were the action and suspense parts. The romance was not that intriguing; it was cheesy somehow.
It was also interesting to read about the stalker's point of view, which I have to admit was kindda CREEPY!! I hope I don't meet people like that. It is a sad truth to find out that these things actually do happen in the real world, and I wish people would be careful because sometimes predators are close to you without even suspecting them.
The ending was totally unpredictable, I honestly did not suspect that person for a stalker.
Since only some parts interested me I give this book a 2/5
