This book is great for what it is - a classic. I already knew the big twist because of the movie and TV series, but I still really enjoyed the book. If I went into reading without any knowledge of the story, though, I know I would’ve enjoyed it much more! So it really isn’t the books fault. The events happened very quickly and I loved how fast paced it felt for me. I feel like the book could have gone on longer - I was left with a lot of unanswered questions and I had so much more I wanted to understand about the characters after the book concluded. The explanation for the killer’s behavior and personality was fascinating and the final chapter was super cool with all of that in mind!
