The plot is so ridiculous and  unbelievable. A stalker that’s also a hacker and an untouchable maniacal assassin?! And the girl he stalks can’t help but fall in love with him?! Yet I found myself laughing out loud and blushing often, making sure to check my surroundings while I read it. This book gives just enough to keep you hooked and explores some dark fantasies behind a backdrop of sinisterly evil things… PLUS a murder mystery? Too many content warnings to count. Yep, I’ll be reading the sequel.

I… I don’t even know where to begin with this book. The female main character, Addie, was going back and forth about how to behave with her STALKER. Don’t even get me started on Z, the stalker. The gun scene? Outrageous and clearly SA. I have no words for how stupid this was. Cannot believe I finished it, and will be worse off that I read this.
