The Stranger Beside Me

Ann Rule

4.01 AVERAGE

dark informative medium-paced

This was an informative book written by Ann, who considered Ted a friend before his crimes came to light. She did not include the fact that Ted engaged in necrophilia with the bodies of his victims. She does highlight that she did not want to believe that he could have committed his crimes, but with the overwhelming evidence she had to.  She doesn’t over humanize him and writes about who he was as she observed. His duplicity with women he was dating and his charm were all highlighted.

Natapos ko din sa wakas! 4 yrs! This was a struggle read for me… wala nman ako na-gain from this. And parang may pagka-groupie eto si ate. Tas, ganun ba sha ka-close? Or feeling nya lang close sila? Ewan! 

In short, not for me.. pero kudos to me for finally finishing this one.
