lianag - This book is quite creepy in a very interesting way, and I really like it. The book is about a man stalking the five Herbert sisters as they hang out and have fun with each other. In the book there were some shorter chapters and the perspectives switched around sometimes between the man and the sisters which was slightly confusing at first but I started enjoying them since I was able to learn about the characters. After one of the Herbert sisters ended up being kidnaped, and in the end there was a twist to it. The man who kidnaped her seemed really sad and lonely, and I couldn't help but feeling a bit sad for him even though he's so twisted. Overall it was a thrilling book to read.

A stranger stalks the five sisters of a closely knit family in this taut drama. Alternating the viewpoints of the predator, who cultivates the anonymous appearance of “any respectable, ordinary man,” and the Herbert girls, who cross his path each day on their way to and from school, Mazer (After the Rain
) keeps readers on the edge of their seats with the knowledge that one of the five will be targeted for foul play. Distracted by worries—their father's disabling injury, dwindling funds, and individual problems they face at school—the girls pay little notice to the man and are oblivious to his growing fixation on the youngest sister, 11-year-old Autumn. The author relays her subsequent kidnapping suspensefully yet judiciously, conveying the terror Autumn experiences but only suggesting her actual molestation. Sharply delineated characters, engrossing narrative and Mazer's keen insight into the psychology of both stalker and victim keep the tension ratcheted way, way up. Ages 12-up.
