"I know when you need your space. That’s why I got the beard."
I hate this man so very much. Nothing is his fault, he's totally perfect and not an awful person. Fuuuuuck you Joe Goldberg!
Otherwise, writing is good, story kept me hooked, but none of the characters were likeable, and the deaths were mostly 1 to 2 sentences long. I would totally read something else by this author, but probably not anything in this series

Very graphic tale from the POV of a stalker obsessed with a girl after a brief encounter. I watched the series so I knew how this obsession takes over and leads to violence. There is nothing redeeming about the character Joe. I wouldn't say I enjoyed the book, more like disturbed by its nature
