dark informative sad tense fast-paced

4.0

while i fully believe this book to be extremely well written & painstakingly researched, it also solidfied my own personal rule to never read true crime again. this book was as horrifying as it was informative. true crime girlies, i highly recommend! but any average joe reader with a weak stomach... maybe pass.
