From debut author Caroline Kepnes comes _You_ , one of Suspense Magazine’s

Best Books of 2014, and a brilliant and terrifying novel for the social media

age.

When a beautiful aspiring writer strides into the East Village bookstore where

Joe Goldberg works, he does what anyone would do: he Googles the name on her

credit card.

There is only one Guinevere Beck in New York City. She has a public Facebook

account and Tweets incessantly, telling Joe everything he needs to know: she

is simply Beck to her friends, she went to Brown University, she lives on Bank

Street, and she’ll be at a bar in Brooklyn tonight—the perfect place for a

“chance” meeting.

As Joe invisibly and obsessively takes control of Beck’s life, he orchestrates

a series of events to ensure Beck finds herself in his waiting arms. Moving

from stalker to boyfriend, Joe transforms himself into Beck’s perfect man, all

while quietly removing the obstacles that stand in their way—even if it means

murder.

A terrifying exploration of how vulnerable we all are to stalking and

manipulation, debut author Caroline Kepnes delivers a razor-sharp novel for

our hyper-connected digital age. You is a compulsively readable page-turner

that’s being compared to _Gone Girl_ , _American Psycho_ , and Stephen King’s

_Misery_.
