There is not doubt about it: Brenna Yovanoff has been when of my favorite authors since her first book, The Replacement, came out. Yovanoff is amazing at setting up a creepy scene and just explaining a scene altogether.
Paper Valentine started off great. Hannah is great character. Usually the books I've read where there is a serial killer the main protagonist gets to be annoying. But Hannah, at least to me, isn't trying to play detective. She just wants to figure out what's wrong.
Another part I loved was her friend. Lillian, who is dead, and she just so happens to see her. It was a bit confusing though and it was never said how Hannah was able to see her.
Overall though I thought this book was great. Definitely buy it... along with Brenna Yovanoff's other books.
