This is probably the 1st book I've read which has an unreliable narrator, and I love it. As another reviewer pointed out, we never find out what the narrator's name is, and there is a fair amount of confusion as to the truthfulness of the story as a whole and of several od its parts. The way the plot escalates makes this a really interesting book. It starts out as innocent enough, then progresses into the creepy and increasingly disturbing. Then comes the plot twist. Throughout the book, the 4 main characters are each put under scrutiny and considered as suspects by the narrator herself. Their opinions, morals, and possible motives are questioned. What makes this story so interesting is that it turns a social phenomenon such as the boyband fandom into a humorously disturbing tale. It shows us what could happen when the stanning is taken way too far. It's fascinating, it's scary, it's new. I love it. When stanning (STalk fAN) goes to far, 4 girls wind up kidnapping a member of their favorite boy band. This is a fun and funny book that totes sounds like a modern teenage girl. It also peeks into deeper issues of friendship and how we deal with trauma. Some "bad" words but nothing that teenagers don't here at school all the time anyway. Um wow, "what did you think? " has never been such a loaded question. it was an incredibly odd story riddled with youthful obsession and terrible mistakes. It's a story I wouldn't really recommend to others and yet I couldn't put it down and finished it in one setting. It's given me a lot to think on in the terms of: why do we like some things, a genuine interest, or just because others love it and it's something to be apart of, and how far are we willing to go for the things we place our mistaken love in. It gives an interesting if not extreme idea of fangirls and what they're capable of from the viewpoint of one of those girls as she starts to question her own obsession. Things I didn't like cussing to the point of excess more like because fifteen year old cussing is "cool" than any real character portrayal or point The main character played the goodie two shoes always insisting what they're doing is wrong and never quite counting herself among them or part if it while constantly classifying her friends as "The mastermind" "the clueless one" ect Somehow in all of this turmoil and moral strife there is a romance for the main character. Seemed like it was just tossed in to fulfill a personal fantasy. I'm just not a fan of romance being in every single book even ones that have much bigger plot points to focus on. The main character kept insisting g what they we're doing was wrong and she was fairly aware of how ridiculous she was being but didn't really do anything about it aside from acknowledging it was true Don't get me wrong I'm not sorry to have read this book. I enjoyed the concept and insite but unless I've a friend fangirling so hard they're at risk of giving themselves an aneurism I wouldn't recommend this unless it was to warn that person to chill. There's nothing wrong with liking or even loving something but there are extreams people probably shouldn't go to, and these girls give a pretty good account of why. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

I would put this book more as a mature read because of the content. The girls, who are only 14 – 15 years old, kidnap, tie up, lick, take selfies and talk about having sex with said band member. The kidnapping does end with murder, dragging the deceased around the hotel and ending with the body thrown off the roof. ( )
