This story is told
in the first person and is narrated by the villain; Joe. When Beck walks into the bookstore that Joe
works in, he sets out to become her perfect boyfriend, no matter what it takes. He breaks into her apartment and steals her
possessions and also steals her phone where he can stalk her online as well as
in person. He also manages to get rid of
her boyfriend and best friend. He is completely obsessed, deranged, and
becomes even more unhinged with every chapter but Joe thinks he is acting
completely normal. Despite being a psychopath, Joe is strangely
likeable and the reader may at times (accidentally) root for him. Stephen King described this book as hypnotic
and scary. I found some hated this book
and some loved it. I personally liked it
as I had never read anything quite like it and enjoyed the series on
Netflix.
