I read the book quickly, and I found it very good. It was a good fast-paced book to get me out of a book slump! I read it after watching the Netflix series. It was surprising to see the huge differences the show made from the book, one being that Joe is way more likable in the show than in the book. In the book, he just gives off this creepy vibe and you end up not rooting for him, but I felt differently about his character in the show. Other than that, it gets points for the writing.
