YOU

By Caroline Kepnes

Gone Girl meets Fatal Attraction in Caroline Kepnes’ You, a chilling account of the twisted psychology behind unrelenting passion.

When aspiring writer Guinevere Beck strides into the bookstore where Joe works, he is instantly smitten. Beck is everything Joe has ever wanted: tough, razor-smart and sexier than his wildest dreams. He’d kill to have her.

Soon Beck can’t resist her feelings for a guy who seems custom made for her. When a string of macabre incidents tears her world apart, there is only one person she can turn to. But there’s more to Joe than Beck realises and much more to Beck than her perfect facade. The obsessive relationship quickly spirals into a whirlwind of deadly consequences…

A chilling account of unrelenting, terrifying deceit, Caroline Kepnes’ You is a thriller more perversely clever and dangerously twisted than any you have ever read.

    Bookclub

    After happily reading and reviewing ‘YOU’ for Mom’s and then sharing it with friends; I had a wonderful idea. My idea is for a Mom’s Book Club. Mom’s could recommend and share ideas for books and read and review the books, this would be particularly useful for Mom’s that find it hard to get out to more traditional book clubs. I posted this in the stories section and have received positive feedback from other Mom’s! I do hope the Mom’s team considers a Book club. Would be wonderful!

    'YOU' for the Holidays

    My copy of ‘YOU’ is starting to look a little dog eared and worn out as I loaned it out over the holidays. Friends asked for recommendations for a good book and read. I happily loaned out ‘YOU’ to friends. It was read pretty quickly and enjoyed by most of them.

    Out and About Review

    I was out shopping and noticed ‘YOU’ being sold in lots of shops and bookstores. It was prominently displayed at the front of stores. I stopped and looked at one display and was asked by a lady “does it look like a good read”. I was happily able to give her my opinion after reading and reviewing the book!

    You. Omg the suspense was brilliant and the storyline was amazing. So true to this life as to how someone can easily takeover someone’s life. This story shows how vulnerable we all are . I found You to be a book you can’t put down in a hurry. I don’t recommend reading this late at night as when it’s 3 am and your still reading it’s a long day.

    Would love another book

    I really enjoyed reading my Mom’s copy of ‘YOU’ and I am really hoping that Mouth of Mums will choose another book by Caroline Kepnes for review. I would love to review another of her books and also to review books in this genre. It is a genre that I enjoy. I recommend this book to other Mom’s.

    Terrific book.

    I spend a lot of time reading, whenever I have spare time on my hands. This book was very good as I love crime fiction novels :)

    Could not put 'You' down!

    Thrillers are my favourite genre – especially those that keep on the edge of my seat and I can’t put down, and ‘You’ fits that bill! The characters have such depth that I felt I knew them, and found myself feeling wary when logging on to social media after reading You!
    If you love a good thriller then read this! I look forward to reading anything else Caroline Kepnes writes in the future.

    Engaging and hard to put down!

    From the moment i picked up the book and began reading, i was in constant wonder, “whats going to happen next?”. I found it hard to put down and would pick up the book as often as I could. The storyline is always maintained and easy to follow. My husband said to me, “why are you grimacing?”, to which i replied, “something bad is going to happen but unlike a movie, i cannot hide behind closed eyelids, i have to keep reading to find out what is going to happen.” i am now reading it for a second time, to see if i have missed out on anything. I recommend that everyone who enjoys crime fiction, should grab a copy of this book and get caught up in the lives of Joe and Beck!

    A Darkly Suspenseful Tale of Obsessive Infatuation

    “YOU” by Caroline Kepnes explores a gripping but unsettling tale of infatuation turned obsession. Joe, the character smitten with Guinevere Beck, presents a chillingly manipulative persona, delving into the dark side of his relentless desire. As the story unfolds, the layers of deceit and the twisted personalities involved create a deeply suspenseful narrative. However, while the book offers an intense storyline and a unique exploration of disturbing relationships, the overwhelmingly dark theme might not resonate with all readers. The psychological complexity is both captivating and disturbing, making “YOU” an intriguing but slightly polarizing read for those keen on deeply disturbing thrillers.

    For You

    YOU is a suspenseful book masterfully written by Caroline Kepnes. She makes you immerse yourself in the story and care about what happens to the characters. It has twists and turns that make you keep reading. I didn’t want to put it down. My friends have enjoyed the story as well.

    YOU should read YOU

    Wow what a great read. Love this kind of story. Caroline Kepnes writes in such a manner that you really get immersed in what is happening and as you care about the characters that makes it more suspenseful. I’m looking forward to reading it again, perhaps I will pick up on things I missed first time round. Recommended reading.

    Readable

    The start of You, was great, demanding my full attention straight away but as the story unfolded and we headed for the half-way point, the plot lost its intrigue and suspense as the big scary, shocking moments I felt sure we coming failed to arrive to a proper climax.
    Overall it is is a good stalker book with some killing and sex scenes that is certainly readable.

    Only ok

    This was a so-so read for me. It was ok but I was not super impressed.
    What I liked about the book was that it was written from the point of view of Joe, a seamlessly normal guy on the surface, with dark twisted currents running deep.
    There were plenty of twists and turns to keep me reading but, I had trouble identifying with Beck.
    I was interested enough to keep reading YOU to see what happened to the characters but I never felt that ‘I couldn’t put it down’. Its not a bad book, but I didn’t think it was outstanding.

    Another book

    On reflection of ‘YOU’ I have come to the surprising conclusion of now wanting another instalment of this story!
    It would be interesting to follow the development of the main character Joe and the newest arrival at the end of the book. Possibly they are similar characters; would also like to see some justice!
