It’s been a while since i’ve watched the show and I wanted to read the books for the first time. Something about hearing his inner monologue is… interesting. And I know we also hear it in the show, but they take things out and switch them around which is a given.
Like Joe peeing in Becks shower to “mark his territory”. Or his misogyny. Keeping beck's bloody tampon. Or the deaths, because they take them out in the show. The way he immediately starts insulting Beck and everybody when he’s mad.
Anyways I enjoyed it and might read again. I’m already on the second book.
