'Joe Goldberg is my guilty pleasure, my strange addiction. If loving him is wrong, I don't want to be right' Erin Kelly
JOE GOLDBERG IS BACK, AND THIS TIME HE'S WRITING HIS OWN HAPPILY EVER AFTER . . .

Joe Goldberg is ready for a change. Instead of selling books, he's writing them. And he's off to a good start.

Invited to join a tight-knit writing fellowship at Harvard, Joe thinks he's finally found a place where talent matters more than pedigree. Where anything is possible, even happy endings. At least until he meets his uber-privileged, already-published, already-distinguished peers.
Thankfully, Wonder enters the picture. They have so much in common: no college degrees, no pretensions, just a love for literature. They could be those rare literary soulmates who never fall prey to their demons. If only Wonder could just commit herself to the writing life.

But Joe has faith in Wonder. He will sacrifice his art for hers. And, if he must, he will kill her darlings for her.
With her trademark biting wit, Caroline Kepnes explores why vulnerable people bring out the worst in others as Joe sets out to make this small, elite world a fairer place. And if a little crimson runs in the streets of Cambridge, who can blame him? Love doesn't conquer all. Often, it needs a little push.

      Bestseller Kepnes’s puckish fourth Joe Goldberg novel (after 2021’s You Love Me) finds the obsessive serial killer at Harvard after a fictionalization of all his “tragic, no-good love stories” earns him entry into author Glenn Shoddy’s writing fellowship. Joe assumes the other “Shoddies” will be undiscovered autodidacts like himself; instead, most are accomplished elitists. The only other misfit is Wonder Parish, a working-class Bostonian who manages a Dunkin’ Donuts and lives with her family. Joe knows he and Wonder are destined to become a literary power couple; he just has to remove all obstacles to their relationship, then convince an insecure Wonder and a derisive Glenn of Wonder’s potential—and of Joe’s brilliance. The Shoddies’ fixation on a whodunit podcast linked to Joe’s past vexes, but he knows how to handle complications: one murder at a time. Kepnes waggishly satirizes the publishing industry, and her outsized characters’ egos and anxieties lay the foundations for delightfully deranged plot twists. The book feels overlong, but Joe’s stream-of-consciousness narration engages throughout, rendering readers both confidante and accomplice. Kepnes reliably entertains. Agent: Claudia Ballard, WME
