Synopsis: Selena is on top of the world. Her acting career at Shadyside High is blossoming—everyone admires her. So when she starts receiving bouquets of dead flowers from a person called “The Sun,” she treats them as a joke.But Selena soon realizes that this is no laughing matter. Her understudy is injured in a suspicious accident. Then a speeding car nearly kills her. Selena knows “The Sun” is responsible.
And that her number-one fan has become her number-one nightmare.
This book was just odd. So we have Selena who is an actress in school plays. But here’s the weird part: apparently she is so good that she’s freaking famous in Shadyside 😂 I’m sorry, but that made me laugh. I mean, why do people care about this high school girl who does plays good? It’s so dumb 🤣 And at some point Selena totally agreed. Lol. Anyway, this girl has a stalker.
I had a lot of suspects because the guys in this book were all just freaking terrible. Eddy’s interest in her was downright creepy. However, Selena liked him even though he was so intense? Girl, you need to raise your standards. Lol. And Danny who can’t take no for an answer was such a dick! I did like Jake though. He was acting kinda suspicious, but wasn’t nearly as bad as the others. At least he was checking in on Selena to see how she was doing. That being said, I did figure out who the culprit was.
This book was fine. I hated most of the male characters, but I didn’t dislike Selena. But I did guess the stalker WAY ahead of time, like, as soon as we met this person. One fun easter egg: Simone Perry from The Prom Queen, Selena actually took over her part in a play!
The Fear Street connection: Selena lives on Fear Street.
