love or stocker

When I started reading Liar, I noticed that Micah never admitted to being Zach's girlfriend.  That really got me thinking... Were Micah and Zach really dating or was she stocking him?  Sure she said that they ran together in the park, that he gave her his sweater, that they did sleep together, and that she would sneak into his room at night.  In my opinion, though I am not qualified to say... I think Micah is mentally unstable!  Micah’s father passed on a spoiled gene or she was dropped on her head as a baby! Yes I believe Micah loves Zach but I also think Zach did not know she even existed...  Micah was not a part of his world let alone his girlfriend.  When Micah says that they ran together in the park, she was following him imagining their little talks.  Zach never gave Micah his sweater; she snuck into his room and stole it.  Micah is not in her right mind, she totally imagined him touching her and them fooling around!  And as for her sneaking into Zach’s room…  I think she snuck into his room while he was out because he had a life… she should would maker herself at home and look at his stuff and smell his clothes like a freak would!  My conclusion for Micah’s character in Liar is of course that she IS a compulsive liar and I am sure she is a stocker!  She is in love with someone that doesn’t even know that she exists.  Liar is not on my top 10 books but it was a good read.

  1. What an interesting perspective, Chrissi! I really like the stalker angle. It gives me another dimension of her psychosis to think about.
