Loverboy by Victoria Redel

3.0

Saw the movie and wanted to compare, lots of controversey it seems surrounds.

Emily Stoll only wanted one thing in life: to be a mother. But growing up with her inattentive parents, all she knew was that her exceptional child would have all her attention growing up. What starts as a woman’s obsession to have a child grows to a mothers love to a mothers obsession to keep her child all to herself. A scary story to read for all women and mothers, as Emily’s obsession takes a dangerous course, endangering herself and her child. Made into a film staring Kyra Sedgwick, Loverboy does show you the terror of letting her child grow up and move on from you, not to mention the bond a mother and child can have. Up until the very end when, as a viewer of the film, you see the unforgettable act of Emily.
