Joe Goldberg is convinced of two things. He'll never love again after the death of his girlfriend, Beck, and he is going to get caught for murdering her best friend, Peach. Then Amy Adam walks into his NYC bookstore, and the two bond over Philip Roth and copious, fantastic sex. He's in love again, until Amy betrays him and heads to Los Angeles, of all places. Disgusted by her superficiality, Joe follows her out there and gets sucked into the world of ironic narcissism, relentless aspiration, and the general desperation of the celebrity-industrial complex. Then he meets Love Quinn, the grocery store heiress whose genuineness and perfection are only marred by her closeness to her twin brother, Forty, a drug-addled, delusional "screenwriter." Can Love's love quell Joe's murderous rage? The story reads like the love child of Holden Caulfield and Patrick Bateman but without the gore and misogyny, which means nothing stands in the way of the reader enjoying Joe's cynical, murderous charm. Though it is a sequel to You (2014), Hidden Bodies may be even better on its own. Copyright 2014 Booklist Reviews.
