3.5 it was different than I expected when I started reading. I was drawn to reading a new perspective on this horrific case- particularly because I attended the university that part of the story takes place in. I was angry hearing all the ways that he was glamorized and the idiocy of why he was able to continue his spree because of negligence. The dual stories that threaded together kept my interest.
