You - Caroline Kepnes


The vampire diaries on twitter talked about this book earlier this year and I wanted to check it out so I bought it this summer. This is the first book in the You series (I think it was going to be a trilogy but not sure). It's also the first book I've read of Caroline Kepnes so i didn't know much about her or her books. I heard this was a book about a stalker and that was it.

The Blurb:
When Guinevere Beck strides into the bookshop where Joe works, he is instantly smitten. And so begins an attraction that quickly spirals into a whirlwind of deadly consequences.

A chilling of unrelenting, terrifying obsession, Caroline Kepnes' You is a thriller more perversely clever and dangerously twisted than any You have ever read.

My Thoughts:
Not sure where to start with this one but one thing for sure: this is a twisted story about a stalker called Joe. And it's so weird reading it because you read it from Joe's perspective and he only talks about her (you do this, I don't like that you do that and so on. That kind of perspective). It's creepy and scary and the worst thing of all is that I kinda sided with Joe sometimes while reading this. I also got a bit annoyed at the girl he was stalking too.. so yeah..weird...but I'm going to continue to read this series because it was something about this book that I just want to keep reading it.



3/5
