Electrostatic potential due to two charge system

When we calculate electric potential energy of a two particle system, say first I bring $+q_1$ and then I bring $+q_2$ against $q_1$'s electric field. Say I get that $q_2$ charge to a point $r$ distance away from $q_1$. Now potential $V_1$ at that point (where $q_2$ resides) due $q_1$ is $kq_1/r^2$ and hence the potential energy of $q_2$ is $q_2V_1= kq_1q_2/r$.

Similarly, at the point where $q_1$ resides, which is again $r$ distance away from $q_2$, the potential $V_2$ at that point due to $q_2$ is $kq_2/r^2$. Hence the potential energy of $q_1$ becomes $q_1V_2= kq_1q_2/r$.

So, the potential energy of both the charges are same and hence when we talk about the potential energy of the system, it should be $2(kq_1q_2/r)$. But in books it's written that the potential energy of a two particle system is $kq_1q_2/r$. Why is it not twice that?

I agree that the time when only charge $q_1$ arrived (with no other charge present) the potential energy of charge $q_1$ at that time will be zero but after the arrival of charge $q_2$ in the presence of $q_2$, then of course the potential of $q_2$ exists but at the same time potential of the charge $q_1$ will also exist as $q_2$ has its potential created at the point where $q_1$ resides, and hence $q_1$ would also have potential energy. And hence potential energy of the system should be the potential energy of $q_1$ and $q_2$ and it is $2(kq_1q_2/r)$, but why do books claim it is $kq_1q_2/r$?

In short, while $q_2$ does exert a force against $q_1$, this force does not perform any work because $q_1$ does not move. The work performed is the product of the force exerted times the distance the particle moves against (or with) it; since $q_1$ does not move there is no work performed on it. The potential energy is defined to be the work required to get to the physical configuration under consideration from some "stock" conditions, and since $q_1$ does not accrue any work it is not counted towards the total potential energy.
In general, the force $kqq'/r^2$ is intrinsically tied to the pair of particles - it is not counted as two independent forces on the two particles. Similarly, the pair of particles has a shared potential energy of $kqq'/r$, but this is an interaction energy and it is not a property of an individual particle - it is a property of the system as a whole. This is the case with all interaction energies.
