I actually liked this one a lot more than the first one. True that this series is a lot like the Twilight series. But the Twilight series didn't have the whole stalker thing? For some reason, I like the stalker thing. Unlike last time, I totally didn't know that it was blankity blank who was the stalker. Surprise, surprise, surprise...

I still kind of hate Camelia because she never learns from her mistakes the first time. Oh, she's an idiot. But at least, she's an okay narrator. I think I like th...more

Bella couldn't let Edward go, Rose couldn't let Dimitri go, and so on. Camelia stands up for herself and makes Ben deal with his decision - You don't want to be with me then deal with it. Good for her!

Summary -
Camelia gets threatening letters and photos again. Everyne thinks it's a joke, but she doesn't think so. Turns out that Debbie (coma girl from book 1) wants to set Ben up so that he forced to leave town. Aunt Alexia is still in the psych hospital and her parents go to visit her. We find out that Aunt Alexia has the same gift as Camelia.

Reminders for the next book -
Camelia - She also has the gift of psychometry through sculpture. Ben tells her that he wants distance and won't touch her. Cameial asks to switch partners and suffers tha backlash. The tension between the two is well written. In the end, he comes back and they decide to be together forever. Can he read her thoughts?

Ben - Comes back and wants space because he fears hurting her. He can't let go though and misses her so he frequently pops up. Thank god he finally gives and goes to her and says that he won't leave her.

Adam - Potential love interest who is genuinely nice. He's funny, caring, and seems like a good guy. Unfortunately, he is Adam's ex-best friends who came to Freetown to make Ben see how it feels to lose someone you care about. He says that it was stupid and that he really does care about Camelia. Possible further conflict in the next book? Don't think so.

Kimmie - Her parents fighting gets much worse to the point where the father leaves. Her father says some terrible things to her and Nate. She dates Todd who leaves hickies on her. This is all for attention.

Wes - Things at home have also gotten really bad for him. Wes does not want to open up and I think the author let this part of the story fall. From his pain, you can see that he needs to open up.

Predictions - The next book focuses on Aunt Alexia. I think Ben and Camelia go and visit her.(less)

There is just something about this series that makes me plow through the books like there is no tomorrow. Camelia is far from my favorite main character out of the books I've read, though her little back up team, Kimmie and Wes are some of my favorite side-kick characters. They're both very interesting and quirky, and Wes reminds me a lot of Adam from the Mediator series by Meg Cabot and I LOVE Adam in that series.

Anyway, this book was thrilling, though not as spine-tingling as the first book....more

This book definitely had me spooked, especially since I would read it at night alone in my apartment. Once again, Camelia is being stalked. There are eerie messages and phone calls to leave the reader guessing as to the culprit's identity. And there are some really good twists--such as the journal entries we get. I have to say that the journal entries were one of the most intriguing parts of the story. They really added to the overall mystery of the book and gets you excited for the next one. So...more

Camelia is dealing with what happened with her stalker at the end of the first book and having Ben leave town. Her family is slowly recuperating, but there’s still a lot of unresolved issues between Camelia’s mother and her aunt Alexia. Ben’s return to town and school complicates Camelia’s life because he is so standoffish and distant. Her attempts at moving on with new guy Adam are hindered by Ben’s obvious jealousy and unwillingness to fully let her go. Camelia also begins hearing voices and creating premonition-like sculptures. On top of Camelia’s newfound talent, she is once again faced with stalkerish notes and threatening phone calls.

I was more than happy to read Deadly Little Lies because I really enjoyed the first. The story was well-paced and flowed easily. The dialogue was once again fantastic, witty, and smart. The whole diary entry backstory that was introduced in the first book continues here from another perspective. Stolarz was once again able to make the stalker aspect of the story incredibly creepy, while countering it with Camelia's and Ben's complicated and sizzling relationship. The introduction of Adam may upset some readers, but I liked him as a character. He adds more tension to the story and forces Camelia to deal with all of her Ben issues. Camelia's possibly developing psychic powers is also quite interesting and I'm excited to see where that goes in the series.

The story focuses on Camelia being stalked again and as much as I enjoyed that aspect of the plot, it felt overdone. Deadly Little Secret was all about Camelia’s stalker and Ben’s involvement and I felt like Deadly Little Lies was about the exact same thing. Camelia is being stalked, Ben is still mysterious and a possible suspect, and Camelia still has very strong feelings for him. The only difference was that the stalker notes were more intense this time around and they were accompanied by more threatening phone calls. The stalker plotline wasn’t even what really kept me completely drawn to the book, it was the story within the diary. I have a feeling Stolarz will delve more into that in the next book though, so I won't spoil anything here.

The book was by no means bad, but I think it some things could have been done differently. I wish Ben had more dimension. He is presented as being sexy and mysterious. People don’t understand him, so we don’t know that much about him, but I think at this point, we need to. Camelia feels so strongly about him, but we don’t really know him. Aside from telling Camelia about Julie, we know nearly nothing.

Kimmie and Wes are back again to lighten the mood, but they seem to have no purpose other than to do that. They both have their own family issues that are talked about a bit, so I hope there’s a payoff with that. Oftentimes minor characters have no purpose, but to advance the plot and I hope Kimmie and Wes don’t fall into that category.

Deadly Little Lies is a story in a series, so I have high hopes that most of my worries are unwarranted. The story does draw the reader in and hold them there. The pacing is perfect and moves swiftly enough that there’s never really a dull moment. The revelations in this one leave a lot of possibilities in Deadly Little Game, the next installment. I look forward to seeing where Camelia’s story goes.

Even with the aspects I didn't really enjoy, I have hope that it will all be fleshed out more in the following book(s). Deadly Little Lies felt too short to me because there is so much that can happen and that's a good thing. A story like this keeps the readers hooked and I am one person who will be eagerly anticipating the next installment.(less)

Laurie Faria Stolarz really knows how to construct an elaborate plot to flow with such ease, and continuously keep you on the edge of your seat with the mystery and romance of the narrative. Starting a few months after Ben leaves Camelia's life, the story immediately takes off with a burst of heart pounding action that just keeps on rolling the entire novel. Right from page one, Camelia is immediately caught up in a new dangerous situation and that initial spooky basement experience really left me biting my nails and wondering- what just happened? This time around though, Camelia is without the most crucial person to help her stay safe, and that of course, is Ben. What will she do now that she doesn't have Ben to support her and sense when she's in danger?

The romantic tension between Camelia and Ben, two people so obviously still in love with one another was agonizing. I kept flipping the pages, anxiously hoping they would resolve their issues. Their scenes together were a roller coaster of emotions, further compounded by Camelia's budding relationship with Adam, the new guy at Knead. Speaking of Adam, you never quite trust Camelia's attraction him. He appears out of the blue, saying and doing all the right things. Yet isn't that just so convenient?! Other times, I'd switch my line of thinking and want her to give him a chance. By the end, I was so turned around I didn't quite know what to think of anyone, including Ben and even Camelia's best friends Wes and Kimmy! No one was free from suspicion or ever completely trustworthy. And of course, there's always that underlying worry that Matt was back in town too. And if your read the first book, you know that would NOT be a good thing!

In regards to the harassing calls and messages that begin resurfacing around Camelia, at times I felt incredibly agitated with her for not going to her parents, and wanted to yell at her for not being more aggressive about her safety. Haven't we been through this before Camelia? But, with that being said, I do want to point out that Stolarz does a great job in painting a believable picture as to why Camelia wouldn't immediately run to her parents for help. Because of the careful plot building and narrative, it made me able to accept Camelia's actions even though I didn't necessarily agree with them as an outsider looking in.

Time and time again, I'd try and fall asleep while reading this novel, but found myself getting up to check the door locks and make sure I had the house alarm on. Just like when I read Deadly Little Secret, I was almost dizzy from wondering and worrying who could be trusted in Camelia's world. And that is the best thing about Laurie Faria Stolarz's writing. She knows how to captivate the reader- inserting a bit of romance here, some eerie voices there, secrets untold, threatening antics and creepy diary entries. All of these devices are perfectly blended to create an intense air of mystery and keep your pulse pounding. Several times, I tried to go to sleep but kept thinking about Camelia. Who was stalking her again? Who was getting into her room? What about the new guy Adam? But most importantly, what was going on with those creepy, whispered voices? I have to say that it was the voices which spooked me the most and left me unable to fall asleep, listening to the house creak and settle into the very late hours of the night....

Wait - did you hear that?! What was that? (less)

I just recently started to read these books, and I must say that they're perfect if you're just looking for a quick read to pass the time. All books so far are no more than about 230 pages. I read this second one in not even a full day. However, they're still good books, I found the second one probably better than the first. It's very suspenseful and puzzling, and also entertaining.

And I really do love Camelia. I think Stolarz is making her into a person you can relate to. Yes, she has this weird power, but she is also a REAL person. She's not a person who knows all, sees all, and understands all. She gets confused and frustrated and she acts without thinking sometimes. She also gets scared and asks for help (or tries to).

But Ben... Grrr... I just want to smack him. He's so selfish sometimes. I hated when he pretty clearly broke Camelia's heart and then wanted to still be around her. He was giving her hope and yet ripping it away the next second. I stood by Camelia when she said Ben had no right asking about Adam. He didn't HAVE any right.

And as for Adam, I was upset to find out about his past with Ben. You know, he was never anything but nice to Camelia. And there's a big part of me that believes he really does like her. Maybe he feels that she reminds him of Julie or maybe not but I don't think he's a horrible guy. We don't know the specifics of the past: When did Julie and Adam start dating? How did Julie feel about both men? Did she want to be with both or was she going to break up with Ben soon? There are a lot of unanswered questions that we may never know. And you know...was Ben's vision when he touched Julie from the past or was it the supposed-to-be future? But then he changed it by grabbing her? Hmmm. That could be interesting. :) Though we do know that there was something between Adam and Julie before the accident.

Anyway, there were just a few things that made me give this book four stars instead of five. I'd say it was mainly the anti-climactic ending and Ben's "I want you but I can't have you but I waaaant you!!!" attitude.

Oh, and Kimmie's fashion sense is awesome. I love her to death. I want her to find happiness. :) I hope that she has a large part in the next few books.

I'm excited to read the next book. :)(less)

I also like that Ben is pretty much a normal kid, besides the psychometry.

I was blown away by this novel, even more so than by Deadly Little Secret. It sucks you in from the first page, and is very difficult to put down until the end. Stolarz was fabulous at displaying Camelia's fears, and that made the book even easier to get into. The story starts off with action, builds up a ton of suspense, and then BAM! You are left completely and utterly shocked by the conclusion.

The mysterious air from Deadly Little Secret most definitely returns in this fabulous sequel, and will have you hanging on till the end. Ben and Camelia's complicated, yet still very there, romance was a hooking subplot to the story, for you constantly are wondering if and when they will ever realize how much they both need eachother. But, throughout the story you begin to doubt Ben, which causes that urge to yell for Camelia to leave him alone. The eery attraction Adam seems to have for Camelia most definitely added conflict as well, making you wonder if maybe, just maybe, their relationship could survive longer than Camelia and Ben's.

The threat of another stalker, and the worry that Matt may be returning kept me turning pages eagerly, hoping that none of Camelia's friends would turn out to be just the opposite. The voices Camelia hears and eerie messeges she recieves only increase your suspcion, and make sure you are always pointing your finger at someone else.

Being a major fan horror films, i was very surprised by how much this novel exceeded my expectations, and even made me want to glance under the bed and lock all the doors. Deadly Little Lies is perfect for a late at night read, when the entire house is silent and the only noise is your fingers against the pages. It was like watching a horror film and screaming at the screen for the person to do something, but they can't hear you. This book? It's scary!

I really like this series and I really like this author. I'm excited to see that she has more books other than this series. Woohoo!
Camelia (for what ever reason it is soooo hard for me to say that name in my head, i usually end up calling her Cam) is not a typical teen, she is a lot more strong willed and not as 'run with the masses' or fluffy headed as a lot of the teens I have ended up having the misfortune of reading about.

Okay, so I was supposed to finish Darcy and Fitzwilliam first before starting to read this one. But I was tempted, and I'm sure you know how mortals are prone to temptation, so... please forgive me, Mr. and Mrs. Darcy?

Deadly Little Lies is the sequel of one of my favourite books, Deadly Little Secret. I had high expectations for it, but the story kind of fall short for me, because the plot was more or less the same as the first book, only with a different villain.

Quotes from Deadly Little Lies

“It's after school, after my double detentions for gym and chemistry, and I'm at Knead, about to begin working on a new piece. I wedge the clay out against my board, enjoying the therapeutic quality of each smack, prod, and punch.
As the clay oozes between my fingers and pastes against my skin, images of all sorts begin to pop into my head. I try my best to push them away,to focus instead on the cold and clammy sensation of the mound and the way it helps me relax. But after only a few short minutes of solitude, I hear someone storm their way up the back stairwell. At first I think it's Spencer, but then I hear the voice:
"I'm coming up the stairs," Adam bellows. "I'm approaching the studio area, about to pass by the sink."
I turn to look, noticing he's standing only a few feet behind me now.
"I hope I didn't startle you this time," he says.
"Ha-ha." I hold back my smile.
"I would have called your cell to tell you I was coming up, but you never gave me your number."
"I'm fine," I assure him, unable to stifle a giggle.” — 28 people liked it

“Okay, now you're starting to scare me," Wes says.
"No, scary is the way people can alter their voices on cue. Like your imitation of that creepy guy who lives at your house."
"You mean my dad?" he laughs.” — 26 people liked it
