she was self-aware about her fucked up motivations, I’ll give her that, but frankly she was still treating investigating serial murder and rape like a profitable pastime, and her ideas about using ancestry dot com for finding him (which ended up actually working, small kudos I guess) are frankly terrifying.
my problem with this relatively well written book is the same I have with all true crime swill: where do privacy and ethics come in when some entitled white lady with a laptop is sticking her nose into family traumas? haunting crime scenes? trying to force her way into private dna databases? suggesting things like “letting readers play detective” ? I said in my first update that I probs wouldn’t like this book, but I did give it an honest try for a few chapters. No dice, but my heart is with the authors family for her untimely passing

I’m very glad I read it but this particular type of true crime is not for me. I ended up having nightmares and yeah, I just don’t wanna do this to my brain again.
