Lisa Jewels books are a hit or miss for miss for me. But this was excellent. Sweet coming of age story well worth the time and credit IMO.

Story
Jack and I, we did everything backward. The day he lured me into his office - which was also the first day we met - he proposed. You'd think a guy who looked like him - a bit cold maybe, but still striking and very unattainable - would only ask the love of his life to marry him, right? You'd think he must be madly in love.

It was ok. But very long and drawn out. I would like a word count on the amount of time she said smile or smiling. Ugh.

Story
A masterful, intensely suspenseful novel about a reader whose obsession with a reclusive writer goes far too far - a book about the power of storytelling, starring the same trio of unlikely and winning heroes King introduced in Mr. Mercedes. "Wake up, genius." So begins King's instantly riveting story about a vengeful reader. The genius is John Rothstein, an iconic author who created a famous character, Jimmy Gold, but who hasn't published a book for decades.

Loved this one even more than Mr Mercedes. Steven creates a great "real human boogeyman". Scarier to me than the supernatural bad guys he's created over the years.
