Even though I did not care for the novel, "You" (the first in this book series) I attempted to give the author a second chance. Big mistake. About 200 pages too long, the story tells of 'sociopath' Joe Goldberg who believes that (after murdering his girlfriend and virtually everyone around her) he has found the one. After she breaks his heart and leaves town, he decides to hunt her down and exact revenge the only way a sociopath knows how. By eliminating her. During his hunt, he meets a woman that turns out to be his ACTUAL soulmate. The 'thriller' then turns into a 'romance' as he invests all of himself to make the relationship work. The original plan to find his ex-girlfriend and murder her begins to unravel. The author takes the reader on a long and unnecessary detour from the original plot. Does the protagonist eventually find his ex-girlfriend? Read (if you care to) and find out.
