Santino Fontana narrates Caroline Kepnes's stalker thriller entirely in second person — a formal choice that makes the reader complicit in Joe's perspective, and Fontana's voice navigates that uncomfortable intimacy with a charm that makes the horror work precisely because the charm works across 11 hours. His voice appears on one other recommendation, and the rest gather highly rated thrillers that share this book's interest in perspective as a tool for making the reader uncomfortable.
