Well, this book was perfectly creepy. I wouldn't say it's necessarily written in a POV style, because you're in this mans head. Literally. Everything he is saying, you're not sure if you can trust.

Do ya'll ever talk out conversations you're about to/hoping to have with someone in your head? I do it all the time. I hate confrontation so I'll picture how the conversation will go: I'll say "this" and the response will be something like "this." No digression, but that's the only way I can describe this book.

You know he's having these interactions with people (do we know this?), but we can't be entirely sure of how the conversation actually goes. Does it go how he says or is it him making up how he wants/wanted the conversation to go? Everything he does he feels justified in doing, all because 'You' make him act that way or do those things.

I don't know what else to say, it's hard describing a book like this.

Read this ya'll.

Just disturbing. Netflix series is written better.
dark tense medium-paced

The author did an excellent job speaking from the perspective of an obsessive stalker / murderer. There was just a bit too much crude language for my tastes - might be accurate, but it got old for me.

I loved it! I saw the show first and it was ok but the book is much better
