I really like it and some of the stories were definitely interesting, the way it's formatted is just too long and my attention span can't handle it

I was kind of intrigued by the subject matter but I was turned off by the writing style.
A fun and spooky read! I had no idea there were so many terrible women in history.

This compendium of female serial killers throughout history is compelling, entertaining, and downright rad. The author notes that this book was partially inspired by the following statement made by an FBI profiler in the 1990s: “there are no known female serial killers”. Telfer presents 15 biographies of murderesses from the 1300s to the 1950s that prove otherwise. These cases are fascinating studies of unlikeable women and the ways that society demonizes, dismisses, and erases female aggression.
