Obsession series
Just A Girl is a short story that may make you think about the dark side of social media. The story follows Tiana, a female college student who became famous on TikTok during quarantine. Now with a large following, she makes a simple post about an inappropriate response she received from an anonymous person on an online dating site. This one post soon morphs into online harassment and so much more.
The story is told using TikTok messages, texts and emails which may not be for all readers, but it was an effective way to tell this creepy story about obsession within the world of social media.

Book Description from GoodReads: Social media can be a dangerous game. A young woman’s world teeters on the verge of implosion when trolls push too far in this disturbing short story from New York Times bestselling author Alyssa Cole. Tiana Carter has just started college and is determined to make the most of it. She’s thrilled to be posting videos about dorm-room cooking and campus fashion for a small but loyal band of followers. When she dips into the online dating pool, her first swipe right raises a huge red flag. Tiana’s polite rejection is met with scorn, and now a group of self-proclaimed “high-value men” are hell-bent on ruining her life. Just a Girl is part of Obsession , a collection of compulsively readable short stories about people pushed to their extremes. So addictive you won’t be able to put them down—read or listen to each story in a single sitting.
