Lady Killers: Deadly Women Throughout History by Tori Telfer

dark informative medium-paced

4.0

As an introduction to female serial killers, this was very well done. I'm sure there is more to all the stories thta would warrant them entire books of their own (I think there is a book called The Angelmakers about the Nagyrev poisonings), but this book gives much depth and insight on the few pages reserved for each chapter. You can grab onto what interested you the most and dig deeper elsewhere! Great book.

Glad that this book didn't perpetuate the glorification of serial killers and did act like these women were girlbosses when for real they were murderers
