Hitchcock's Rear Window meets Messud's The Woman Upstairs in this unnerving, superbly crafted novel which takes readers deep into the mind of a serial stalker and, through him, the lives of his unsuspecting victims.Try it yourself. Go out, pick somebody and watch them. Take your phone and a notebook. Persist. What begins as a confluence of yours and another person's journeys, on the train maybe or leaving a cinema, gets into an entanglement. You follow, feeling that it's not really following because you're going the same way, then when they at last reach their office you feel the clutch of a goodbye. It's normal. But how many times do you think the person being followed has been you? READ ME is a seductive, haunting novel that holds a sinister mirror up to the ways in which we observe, judge, and influence people. Benedictus' prose commands and draws readers into the dark, manipulative mind of a serial stalker as he targets women across London, escalating his efforts until he settles on Frances -- a bright young professional whose career is set to take off -- whose life he proceeds to unravel from the inside, out. A chilling rumination on power, manipulation, complicity, and anonymity, READ ME exposes just how vulnerable we are to the whims of others -- people we may not even know.

I got quite a few of my ebooks off my TBR list in February. Some I finished, some were DNFs and a few I reread their synopsis and removed them from my list altogether.

Here are the next 20 picks from my list for March.

A terrifying look into a serial stalker‘s mind. How easily, the reader learns, is it to be stalked without notice; even more terrifying are the amount of women the narrator has followed. How many of them were blessed with ignorance? One could argue that this story shows the beginnings of a serial killer from a serial stalker and how quickly one morphs into the other.

We wont talk about how many galleys I have to read. It's a lot. But mostly picture books and graphic novels. So I think a 30 book goal is doable. Maybe??

Mehso-so

Unnamed stalker interferes in the life of his latest obsession, planting microphones in her apartment and causing trouble for her at work. Eventually his obsession turns in to flat-out crazy but the problem is... He was so boring!
Maybe I'm just over the trending stalker genre? This was just meh for me but if you're enjoying all the stalker novels, it wouldn't hurt to give this a try.
Thanks to Twelve Books & NetGalley for an ARC.
