Review Detail

Okay, I admit, this book scared me [the book trailer scared me too...]. Not as scary as The Devouring but it's coming pretty close. The book trailer reminded me of that movie trailer I saw a few months ago...something Massacre? Chainsaw Massacre? Not sure but it was scary as hell.

What I remember the most while I was reading this was this weird sense of euphoria. Like I was reading it...in a out-of-body experience. Did anyone feel this way??? The entire time I was like: must. get. this. done. Haha

What I liked most about Deadly Little Secret was the creepiness [even though it scared the crap out of me]. But I like scary books. And Deadly Little Secret was definitely a scary book. I liked the suspension it made you feel while you were reading it and how you had to keep guessing who the culprit was. I also loved the way it was written in two perspectives - Camelia's and her stalker's. I loved how the stalker's perspective was written in a journal and it made it seem more real.

Camelia sometimes made me want to slap her. Why? Because she refused to get any real help aka parents, polices, etc. Instead, she kept going like: I'm sure it'll pass, etc. etc. I mean, if you felt you were in danger, wouldn't you want to find an authoritative figure to help you? I know I would. Even though she was really brave, there were definitely some times where she was downright stupid. She was a very thorough and in-depth character. I enjoyed reading about her and her "relationship" with Ben.

Now, on to Ben [gotta talk about him]. He was a mysterious character. No doubt about it. But what I learned - finally- surprised me even though it probably shouldn't have. But it did. And I have to admit, what I learned + his mysterious character + his sexy body = yumm! Hahahaha.

Overall, this book was intense. Better than I had thought so that is a good thing. :)
