Not my style of book dark and depressing and was hoping for a big twist that didn’t come.

An incredible, uncomfortable, horrifying dissection of the true crime genre and its “fandoms.” A must read for anyone who consumes true crime. 

Adding a content warning for necrophilia as well as the content warnings listed below.

this was so well done!! this also dealt with extremely dark topics so be warned!! the story centers around an unreliable narrator‘s book concerning the brutal murder of a 16 year old girl by three of her classmates.
man, eliza clark has become an auto-buy author for me, her prose is excellent and her stories always interesting and captivating!
