The Obsession

Review: The Obsession - Jesse Q. Sutanto - February 2021

Ever since I first saw the cover of this book, I knew I wanted to read it as it drew me in and I also loved the sound of the story. Other than that, I went in blind which for me - tends to make me enjoy the story more so than if I had an idea as that's when I get disappointed. The book was a little confusing, to begin with, and we are presented with Logan who is back at High School this semester and ready for a fresh start. We learn that Logan had a "secret relationship", though as we will discover Logan's feelings tend to run more one-sided with a girl named Sophie. Sophie then died and Logan spiraled out of control. Now he's back for a fresh new year and it looks like a new girl in his sights - Delilah. Delilah is new at school and lives with her mum and her mum's abusive cop boyfriend Brandon. Delilah is Sophie's doppelganger and now Logan wants to date her and so his weird stalkerish behavior comes back into play. What will happen though when his cameras catch Delilah aka Dee doing something that could land her in prison? When Delilah tries to break up with Logan, he hangs it over her head and now she is trapped in a controlled relationship. Delilah though as we are about to learn is probably more psychotic than Logan and it looks like he has met his match in the second half Delilah realizes the only way to get control back over her life is to eliminate the problem which is Logan. I have to admit, if you thought Delilah was this pushover little half-Asian, then think again.  I am now looking forward to reading The New Girl which looks from what I gathered at the end of this book - Sophie's story before her death - almost like a prequel to The Obsession.

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he

  Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas - October 2016 As soon as I read Bully by Penelope Douglas, I was in love with this author. So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she
