    Looking for a story about someone getting obsessed with something (an object, hobby, person, ect.) and the something slowly consuming their life till it's all they're thinking and care about. Short stories preferable but open to anything.

    1. Oh, my most favorite thriller The Poison Artist by Jonathan Moore was first recommended on a request for obsession

    2. Frankenstein.

      Ender’s game. (Kinda. He didn’t super have a choice, but he does get obsessive about his goal.)

      Ready Player One.

      The Great Gatsby.

    3. My husband by Maud Ventura. It’s not a slow progression – the obsession is there from the beginning of the book.
