I was struck by the writer’s callous descriptions of terrible acts. Did I know going in that this was going to be a difficult read, yes. Did the tone of the book lead me to believe that the author has become numb to the atrocities, immensely so. I was incredibly disappointed in the way he talked about women especially.

lack of a real ending meant the whole book just read like one big infodump, the author telling us all about his work and research without actually weaving a cohesive narrative.
say what you will about vince bugliosi’s “helter skelter” (which the author does EXTENSIVELY), but at least bugliosi told an actual story with conclusions and an ending, even if his evidence was semi-manufactured and the conclusions politically motivated.
