dark funny mysterious tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.25

Felt much more readable than the first book. Still uses lots of alliteration. Dexter comes across as funny instead of just annoying.

As the first book, this one was very easy to read and it went by fast. Its very dark, very graphic,  but easy to follow. If murders, serial killers, and graphic gore is your thing, then i recommend this book. I found it much better than the first one and with a better plot.
