Not my favorite by this author. Definitely no humor, but the plot was a lot more basic too. A YA version of “You”.

This quick YA thriller was really enjoyable to read. It was a little predictable and I wish there had been a bit more to it just to tie everything together.

To keep it simple,
Logan is a delusional stalker who becomes obsessed with a girl named Delilah. She quiet and sweet and also reminds him of another girl he used to know. Delilah is struggling at home with her mom and her mom's abusive cop boyfriend.

Thats basically the first 50 pages. This book is over 300 pages though and a lot happens. It is face paced and I love that. There are a good amount of twist and turns, and even though some of them are predictable, a few made me gasp made me want to just keep reading.

I first got the book and pick it up, my first predication was that she was going to kill him. However, as I read I changed my prediction and though she was just going blame the drug ring on him and to send him to jail. Should have stuck with my gut.

Idk why I wasn't loving this. The description had me hooked but I just couldn't get super connected with the characters. It wasn't boring though, just not a 5 star like I was expecting. I feel the ending was too abrupt and the plot could've taken more time to build up. It was entertaining though, finished in a two days.

For most of the book, I was expecting to learn more about Sophie. Although Sophie still feels like a mystery to me, Delilah’s story made up for it. I really enjoyed Delilah’s character besides the parts in library, but then, the ending had me wanting more!
