Review: Deadly Little Lies - By Laurie Faria Stolarz

Summary
 Some secrets shouldn't be kept... Up until three months ago, everything in sixteen-year-old Camelia's life had been fairly ordinary: decent grades; an okay relationship with her parents; and a pretty cool part-time job at the art studio downtown. But when Ben, the mysterious new guy, starts junior year at her high school, Camelia's life becomes anything but ordinary.
Rumored to be somehow responsible for his ex-girlfriend's accidental death, Ben is immediately ostracized by everyone on campus. Except for Camelia. She's reluctant to believe the rumors, even when her friends try to convince her otherwise. She's inexplicably drawn to Ben...and to his touch. But soon, Camelia is receiving eerie phone calls and strange packages with threatening notes. Ben insists she is in danger, and that he can help--but can he be trusted? She knows he's hiding something... but he's not the only one with a secret. 
 Review
I really really loved this book! The writing dripped of greatness and the characters were incredibly easy to relate to. Loved the two best friends whom had me smiling every now and then, and Ben, well he was just a bottle of mystery and I really loved it. I loved the chapters that centered on the stalkers point of view. It had its own creepyness about it that just made it all the more interesting. I was literally guessing till the end, and even then, my guess was wrong! lol! The author really wrote this mystery out well! This book had been sitting on my shelf for a while and I never really thought about reading it. Now I'm honestly glad I did. Great mystery. Great book! 5 very well deserved stars! I can't wait to read the rest of the series!
