Deadly Little Games (Touch #3)
Before either one has a chance to fully grasp their abilities, a new danger surfaces, but this time, Camelia is not the target. Adam, a familiar face from Ben's past, is drawn into a puzzle he can't solve...and his life is on the line. As the clues pile up, Camelia must decide whether to help him and risk losing Ben or do nothing and suffer the consequences. But in these games, who can be trusted?
Packed with the suspense and romance that made Deadly Little Secret and Deadly Little Lies breakout hits, Deadly Little Games is sure to be a bestseller.
This entire series has been one long guessing game for me. Each book brings to the table a new mystery with tons of twists and turns. Some a bit more predictable than others. This particular book definitely tested my problem solving skills. I had my theories from the beginning and then I switched them up half way through...and then I changed my mind again...only to be completely surprised at the end!!! I didn't see that coming at all! Or did I! OMG it was all there right in front of my face all
I liked Ben, not so much with Camelia, she was too wishy washy for me.
Laurie Faria Stolarz's books are all starting to be the same. Stalkers, some kind of magic and some tragic love story where despite having some sort of 'gift', the female lead makes incredibly dumb decisions. The first book in the series was good, the second one was okay, but this one? Come on, really? How many stalkers can Camelia come in contact with? I guess that's one of the problems with a series. She's just a teenage girl living in an ordinary town. She meets this extraordinary boy who has
6/12- I am 94 pages in and let me tell you, Ben is getting on my nerves. I mean really, either youre so devoted to Camelia that you can't stand to be away from her or you need time alone. MAKE UP YOUR BROODING, SULKY, PSYCHOMETRIC MIND ALREADY! Also, I can't help but want more Adam. I can't help it. I have a thing for fictional characters named Adam. 6/12- WHO IS THE CRAZY PERSON?!?! Stolarz is a genuis at this stuff because I'm always wondering what's happening. Ben is still bugging me, here on
Camelia and Ben are back in the third installment of the touch series. Camelia is back with Ben, who reminds me of an array of male, bad boy characters, but Camelia is still getting premonitions and sculpting about something happening to Adam, Ben's ex best friend. In a pretty formulaic story, there is the overarching issue of Camelia's "crazy" aunt who suffers from the same psychometric issues, grappling with her premonitions, and always having to "help" someone and Ben having to rescue her
The worst book out of the bunch. It was the most predictable book in the series. I don't expect young adult novels to be the most intense writing in the world, I just expect better storytelling. It was painfully obvious who the new stalker was. I guessed it the moment the character was introduced. If its that easily guessed, I don't find the story interesting.

I think I'm done with this series - the author's aggressive attempt to force us into a love triangle having thrown me off. Ben was hardly present in the story, and when he was, he was moody, aloof, and unlovable. Part of what irked me was that the tension in their relationship could have been avoided with honesty. Ben's refusal to be honest after all they've been through is annoying and ridiculous. Lying - directly or by omission, is the primary activity in this story, and I hate that. That justThis entire series has been one long guessing game for me. Each book brings to the table a new mystery with tons of twists and turns. Some a bit more predictable than others.
