You, the reader, felt a sense that something significant had changed when a character died in the first book. You succeeded by making the reader care about the characters that died. This book continues tradition in that regard, but I must say that they’re not as impactful. Hidden Bodies wouldn’t be a true sequel to You if it wasn’t packed with murders. There’s something about Joe’s character that is complete gold. While Forty is far from a likeable character, Love is so forgiving of everyone around her that her character isn’t at all believable.īut once again, even with the complete randomness of this book, I was just as glued to it as I was the first one. They become an interesting part of Joe’s journey, and they wind up changing him in many ways. Two of the most prominently featured new characters are Love and Forty, who are wealthy twins looking to make an impact in the show business.

Expect to see many Californian stoner stereotypes here. One of the most entertaining aspects of the book is reading about how Joe views people from California, versus people in New York.

Besides Joe -and a few returning characters with a short stay- Hidden Bodies features a new cast of supporting characters.
