4.5 CUSHTASTIC STARS
Stalk Me by Jillian Dodd was a fun filled, angsty ride. It's a mix between Gossip girl meets Beverly Hills 90210 and I loved it. Keatyn is the type of girl you always wanted to be in high school. She's the popular girl with a closet to die for and a never ending list of suitors after her. Jillian did an amazing job of writing some good teenage angst with a twist. I found myself devouring this book and fully invested in what Keatyn was going through.
"Damn Disney, and all their happily-ever-after, unrealistic, bullshit stories." ~ Keatyn
Keatyn Douglas is not your average teenage girl, she is the daughter to a very famous mother named Abby Johnston and her stepfather is Hollywood icon Tommy Stevens. Growing up all she's wanted to do is be the popular girl, have the perfect boyfriend and have her life follow the perfect script (don't we all)!! But unfortunately life never follows the script we imagine and plan for ourselves and Keatyn's journey is pretty rocky. She has to deal with boyfriend drama, mean girls and fights to remain the person she is and not conform to her friends mean girl ways. On top of all that she faces a life threatening stalker issue that threatens her safety and leaves her life taking a new path.
Stalk Me is overflowing with swoon worthy boys. It seemed every time I turned the page there was someone to drool over! Jillian did an incredible job with writing these characters. It started out with Sanders, your typical high school golden boy. He was sweet and amazing and came with a pretty big secret (which you'll discover as you read). We also meet Brooklyn who is your typical surfer boy, his laid back personality and smooth boy charms are extremely appealing. He know's how to woo a girl and his Keats for my Keats (poetry) were pretty damn incredible. Brooklyn is a little bit of a bad boy in this story, tending to lead Keatyn on.
"A thing of beauty is a joy forever." ~ Brooklyn. "You're single. I'm single. Let's mingle." ~ Cush
Then we have Cushman!!! Oh girls (Mega swoon time). He had some amazing pick up lines!! Cush is the type of boy that you would have fell all over yourself for in high school. The boy you would have dreamt about at night and wanted to marry. The the type of boy that makes your heart skip a beat at the mere mention of his name! He's sweet and dreamy and caring but also is a little bit of a player which gives him this bad boy sex appeal. He has a major soft spot for Keatyn.
"You're single. I'm single. Let's mingle." ~ Cush
And last but certainly not least we have "The God of all Hotties," Aiden. This boy is so flipping gorgeous that he is called "The GOD of all hotties!" I mean come on, if for no other reason than that you need to read this book! Aiden was damn near delectable and I fell for him immediately leaving me torn between Team Aiden and Team Cush :/ It was that hard to choose.
Overall I felt this book was really fantastic and I'm so excited there is going to be six books in this series. I love that we will be following Keatyn's life and will be able to see her mature and grow. I really loved Jillian's writing and felt it was a fun, faced paced, sexy and filled with an amazing amount of drama. Her story took off and left me not wanting to put my kindle down. I would highly recommend this series. It made it to my favorites shelf.
