A review by mpr2000
Looker by Laura Sims
3.0
This is not the kind of book you are used to, is more a diary than simply a novel, but is original and interesting. Short, addictive and gripping; the Looker inside of you is ready to go out.
The story is told by a woman, the Professor, her thoughts and acts told in first person, but we don’t really know her name or why she choose now to start the story. She is obsessed with her neighbour, the actress, as she calls her. But she will become more than a “looker”, more dangerous than anyone could had expected. I really don’t know how to categorize this book, but I liked it. It was like I couldn’t stop reading, the thoughts were dark and dangerous, but intriguing and addictive; like you become the looker and start obsessing with the “actress” too. This is a walk to the sanity of the looker, how she just wants to be noticed till she is so obsessed that can not control her impulses any longer; ready to do anything to become noticed.
This is a really short story, take a deep breath and immerse to the dark side, where the impulses and obsession gain to reality and control.
