I absolutely loved this book! Joe was creepy and disturbing and it was interesting to see inside his mind and how he saw others actions compared to his own.

As a big fan of the show I loved getting to listen to the audiobook version. Joe is somehow even worse in the book than in the Netflix show which shocked me a bit because I didn't realize he could get any worse lol. I look forward to reading more of the series.

What a creepily wonderful novel! Santino Fontana was wonderful! He brings such a special layer to Joe's character. I gave an extra star just because of his performance.

I think that every one of you who thinks that while Joe does horrible things you find the way he thinks relatable, need to go to therapy, seriously how the hell is he relatable??
