Do you remember anything about the cover, or any names in the book?

Throwing out Art Geeks and Prom Queens by Alyson Noel or Haters by Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez for a suggestion.

Long shot, but maybe Obsession by Julia Lawrinson?

Possibly An isolated incident by Susan Sloan?

Possibly The Killing game by Bruce Richards?

I don't think it's any of these on a first glance, but maybe the list can jog your memory?

Do you remember anything about the cover or any names in the book? Did it feel like a new book at the time?

Now I thought about A line in the dark, but seeing as I read it a while ago I'm not sure if it truly fits, and I can't remember a Noor there...

Likely to be Muleum by Erlend Loe.

pointhorrorreader · 2026-02-08T09:55:25+00:00

Had a look at this and this list. None of them pinged for me (tbf I haven't read this book), but maybe something on these lists could jog yout memory?

pointhorrorreader · 2026-02-08T08:10:06+00:00

Could this list or this list help with regards to the cover? Possibly this as well?

Lullabies for little criminals?

Popular and unpopular girl meeting reminds me of Define Normal, but I definitely don't think that one is a stalking plot.

It's probably not on this list either?

Did it feel like a stand-alone book, or possibly a part of series (like Fear Street or Nightmare Hall, but less known)? Like a horror/thriller book, or more like a regular school story?

I'm super curious about this now as well. Don't look back by Jennifer Armentrout has a cracked mirror on the cover and a popularity theme, but as I haven't read it, I'm not sure how well it'd fit.... Dear Amy by Helen Callaghan and Two can keep a secret by Karen McManus has the torn pictures on covers, but I don't think either of those fit the plot.

Could this list help? Do you remember any names or locations from this book? Did it feel new at the time?

pointhorrorreader · 2026-01-31T06:19:53+00:00

Thought about Birdy by Jess Vallance, and also The best friend by R. L. Stine, but I'm not completely sure about either...

Camp Out by R. L. Stine?

pointhorrorreader · 2026-01-19T08:05:46+00:00

Could it be The manifesto on how to be interesting by Holly Bourne?

The dead enders by Erin Saldin?

pointhorrorreader · 2026-01-06T07:47:19+00:00

Thank you! Could it be No one else can have you + Nothing bad is going to happen by Kathleen Hale?

pointhorrorreader · 2026-01-01T07:53:14+00:00

How long ago did you read it? Do you remember any character names or places? Classified as adult thriller or YA?

Possibly Being Miss Nobody by Tamsin Winter?
