There I a lot in this book that I was surprised to find out. Very informative. Dark and also gross at times. Not a light read but very interesting also a great reader.

challenging dark informative mysterious reflective slow-paced

This book was really good and really informative. I was expecting it to be more like a novel rather than a memoir but it was extremely fascinating. The author uses so many cases and personal stories to support the system he’s come up with in behavioral analysis that clearly shows how he comes to conclusions. I felt at a certain point it got a bit repetitive but still struggled to put it down. If you feel like you will be triggered by unfiltered descriptions of murder and rape, this book likely will be too much for you.

Took me a while, but I like this book a lot. It's sort of like reading a bunch of case studies with a little bit of a memoir thrown in.
