To begin with, I knew this was going to be a quirky one. *Spoiler alert*: stalking someone just because she wears the same skirt every day is weird. But orchestrating efforts to ensure that she uses your sample shampoo to smell nice for an interview, works in the same company, goes on the same commute, and even covers up for a fatal accident is beyond creepy.  I can't figure out how she can be stalking to such an extreme extent but never gets caught.  I find this an interesting one, but would I recommend this to anyone?  Mmm… only if you r into short quirky story about a woman stalker?
