I Hunt Killers by Barry Lyga
4.0
Wow, I was amazed by this book and how much I actually really enjoyed it. This is my first book by Barry Lyga.
Jasper aka Jazz is a great male character and it is hard to find one that you can like on one side and dislike at the same time because you don't want him to go "dark" like his father. I was surprised that Jasper wasn't thrown into jail because he was trying to "help" the police with trying to solve the murders. Howie was a perfect best friend/side kick, he cracked me up especially when he was making fun of himself.
The book was clever and it had me guessing "who dunnit". When the serial killer was revealed I totally gasped! I didn't see it coming but I feel like I should have. Some of the murder scenes were gross and some people with the faint of heart might have to skip over them.
The only reason why I gave it 4 stars was because I felt at the end when the serial killer was revealed the plot went really fast and I felt like things were developed way to quickly.
While reading this, I thought Jasper and Cas from "Anna dressed in blood" would be friends maybe if there books were to come together some how.
Readalike for people that like the shows Dexter and CSI plus I think boys will just gobble this book up. I'm interested to hear what other people say about the sequel and if I will read it when it comes out.
