Disliked at first but then I fell in love.
By Britt Cole
So basically this is a modern day version of Hamlet (by Shakespeare). I really liked this book, it was very good, I really enjoyed it. I love how it focuses on Ophelia and she is the main focus instead of Malachi unlike in Hamlet where he is the main focus.
When I was writing this review in my head, in the beginning, I wasn't loving this book. I actually hated it. The POV (point of view) changes ever chapter and normally that doesn't bother me. However, this book changes from a Third Person Point of View focusing on Malachi to First Person Point of View in Ophelia's view. That was majorly distracting to me. In the beginning I did not like it what so ever. It made it hard for me to fall for the characters because the chapters were short so it didn't give me enough time to forget it was going to change views. I felt like I couldn't fall for the characters or plot or story or anything because the chapters were short and I was plagued with the fear of it changing views. By the eighth chapter, however, the chapters got longer and I fell in love with everything.
My love of Shakespeare and curiosity won out over the fear of changing views.
By the end of this book, I was loving the changing of views and understood why she did it the way she did.
Ophelia is the main character and Malachi is her love interest, not the other way around as I first thought. Yes, this book also centers around Malachi but the reason Ophelia's view is in first person is because we need to know how she is feeling, what she is thinking, how she is seeing things because she is so well gaurded. We need to love 'the weird crazy girl' as much as Malachi does.
So much is going on around Malachi, with his uncle/step-father, his ill-looking sister, and his mother, who, I feel, is crazy. We have to have third person to see everything around him but if we had that with Ophelia, I would not have loved her. I wouldn't have liked her. You have to feel everything she does or you just can't love her. I think it would have been very impactful if we had seen Malachi's view in first person but for story progression, it just couldn't happen.
The back of the book warned me it is considered upper YA and is 15+. This book is no doubt NA (New Adult) and I consider it is 17+. I would not be okay with my 15-year-old friend reading this book. The language is very strong and has many adult themes and two sex scenes, not very detailed but you know it's happening and how it makes them feel.
But, I mean, you can't do an impactfully retelling of Hamlet without adult scenes, can you?
*Insert Lion King Poster here*
(No, you can't.)
All of this said I loved the book. If you have not read Hamlet, I feel you wouldn't understand certain characters popping up without explanation but being a Shakespeare nerd, I loved everything about it.
Through the whole book, I was wondering how she would do the ending and how it would tie in the "A Tale of Obsession" and she did it wonderfully.

This book gets a 5 tea cups out of 5 tea cup ratings.
(That's like 5 stars but it's better because it involes tea.)

Ultimately it is a story of love and compassion.
By theb1tch
This is NOT a story for the feint-of-heart. There is so much to deal with in this story that I barely know where to begin.....
Malachi Stone is a beautiful and brilliant young man. The stage is set with Malachi in a deep well of despair after the untimely death of his father followed, rather too quickly, by the marriage of his mother to his Uncle. Much of the focus of this story is on personal demons. Malachi's relationship with his girlfriend, Lucy. His strained relationship with his mother and uncle/step father. His relationship with his younger sister (Maud) and, perhaps most importantly, his relationship with Ophelia. Their's is a strange relationship... One that gives the appearance of unrequited love. To the casual observer it may appear that Malachi is toying with Ophelia... Stringing her along while continuing a more 'proper' relationship with Lucy, who is more equal, on a social level, than Ophelia. Looks can be deceiving though, and Malachi and Ophelia are intellectually very suited to one another. They share a passion for thought provoking discussion and understand each other on a very deep level, perhaps even more so than they realise themselves.
Ophelia is a lovely young woman who has had far too much to deal with from a very young age. Her mother is mentally ill and Ophelia has had to deal with a number of suicide attempts by her mother... The numerous stays in the mental ward that follow and the after hospital care required. Much of this has fallen on her young shoulders while her father works himself into an early grave, and I mean that literally, trying to keep things afloat.
This story deals with so many heart breaking experiences. Many of which are still seen as taboo by most people. The difficult topics often make for the deepest of stories. Perhaps because they make us look at ourselves and others in a completely different, and somewhat uncomfortable light. Mental illness, death, abuse (both sexual and substance) and love. All of these are dealt with in a deeply thought provoking way. If you have ever experienced ANY of these things, I'm certain that this story will resonate with you. Some people will see this as a depressing story of loss, but in truth, it is not. There is triumph within the tragedy and it is easy to see how one event could realistically lead to the other. I love stories which show the darkness and the light in life. There is no perfect story where everyone gets a happy ending, although it is what we all wish for. You don't know what is going on behind closed doors. People who seem, on the surface, to have it all, could be hiding any number of dark and disturbing tragedies. This certainly shines a light on that.
Ultimately it is a story of love and compassion. A story of self-discovery and strength born from soul crushing tragedy. I loved this story. This is the first book I have read by Katie M. John .... It will not be the last.

Absolutely incredible!
By MischiefTravvy
Katie M. John did it again. A book that touches the heart and surprisingly someone could relate to the obsession of a crush. I couldn't put it down and was in tears and sorrow.
I enjoyed the two point of views but the first person to third person was getting slightly confusing.
One just wants to grab Malachi, hug him and knock some sense into him. It took him long enough to grow some balls but by then it was too late. His love for his sister is just touching, wanting to protect her.
Ophelia grew a spine and realized she had to move on. No regrets, no what ifs. Sebastian knew and loves her so much he looks the other way. The two deserve each other.
If you are looking for the Happily Ever After, this is not your book. Katie M. John went out side the box, sorry for the cliche, but this isn't her typical type of book I am used to reading from her. It is brilliant and her writing is so captivating, luring you in with the first sentence. Her descriptions are exquisite. Her books never fail to impress me.
