I enjoyed the first book in this series and loved the Netflix series even more. All I knew going into this sequel was that the Netflix show seemed to take a different direction and did not follow this book closely for Season 2. So, I wasn't sure what to expect and I wasn't sure why they didn't follow the book. About a 100 pages into this book it became evident. I think Joe Goldberg is such a fascinating character and that's the only reason I gave this an extra 0.5 star. This book is messy. It's all over the place. The boring and useless parts dragged yet the parts where there was actual action and intrigue were way too fast-paced. Just watch the show instead.
Graphic: Death and Violence
Moderate: Animal death, Drug abuse, and Drug use
