A parent would reach for this book when their teenager is looking for a fast paced, cinematic thriller that explores the psychological tension of feeling targeted by an unknown threat. It is an ideal pick for a reluctant reader who enjoys the goosebumps style of suspense but is ready for more mature high school stakes and interpersonal drama. The story follows Eve, a girl who believes a solar eclipse has brought a curse of bad luck and a dangerous stalker into her life. While her friends dismiss her fears as superstition, the threats become increasingly real. The book handles themes of anxiety and the struggle to be taken seriously by peers. It is a classic 90s teen horror that offers pure entertainment without heavy social messaging, making it a great 'beach read' or palate cleanser for a busy student. Parents should know it contains moderate peril and suspenseful sequences, but it remains within the boundaries of traditional YA thrillers of its era.
