**My thoughts**
Bonnie R. Paulson is one of my favorite current authors, because she has a knack for taking a common storyline and twisting it around into something original and exciting. In this series, Molly is being haunted by the unsolved murder of her twin sister. And now it looks like he is coming after her. It is someone who knows her every move, as she keeps finding tokens left behind and he keeps super close tabs on her. Those who are closest to her are also in danger, but sometimes it seems as if one of them could be her stalker.
I like Molly and her friends. They are very real and seem to have a great sense of humor, despite all of the craziness. I can feel Molly's despair as the stalker moves closer and closer. It makes me crazy that she isn't as forthcoming with authorities as she should be. She also gets somewhat reckless at times, trying to survive, but I almost can't blame her in those weakened moments. I also seriously hate her parents.
The story is told quickly, in seven short episodes. That made for super fast reading and an entertaining way to pass a couple of hours. Some aspects of the story, I wish we could know more about, but they were almost irrelevant to the story at hand. I just felt like I wanted a bit more from this, but at the same time would still recommend it to anyone wanting to read a gripping suspense. The plot twists are fun and you are unlikely to guess who the stalker really is. I had a few suspects in mind along the way and was really surprised at the revelation. In fact, I even want to go back and reread the series, to see if I can find some clues as to his identity any earlier.
So, go ahead and grab these titles and then also check out her other books. You won't be disappointed.
