About the Book:

In You, a psychological thriller by Caroline Kepnes, Joe Goldberg, an intelligent and seemingly mild-mannered bookstore clerk in New York City, becomes infatuated with Guinevere Beck, a beautiful aspiring writer who visits his store. When Joe learns her name from her credit card, his interest becomes obsession. He begins stalking her online, uncovering intimate details of her life through her public social media accounts.

Armed with knowledge of her likes, dislikes, and whereabouts, Joe orchestrates “chance” encounters, seamlessly inserting himself into Beck’s world. Slowly, Joe transforms from a stranger to the perfect man in her life, all while manipulating events behind the scenes. As Joe eliminates anyone he sees as a threat to their relationship—sometimes resorting to deadly measures—Beck remains unaware of the dangerous game unfolding around her.

Told from Joe’s chillingly rational perspective, You is a dark, gripping exploration of love, obsession, and the terrifying power of digital surveillance. It unveils how fragile the lines are between admiration and obsession, love and control, in an era where privacy is an illusion.
