Caroline Kepnes is the original mind behind the suspenseful drama we've come to know, love and become unsettled by.

The thriller novel was published in 2014 to rave reviews, its overnight success led to two speedy follow-up books.

Kepnes released subsequent sequels Hidden Bodies and You Love Me in 2016 and 2021 respectively.

Season two was loosely based on the second book of the series whereas the third instalment of the television show is thought to take on its own direction.

It is unclear how much the You books will inform its Netflix counterpart with the latest batch of episodes as its source material was only released in April.
