A review by sialovesbooks
Mister Slaughter by Robert R. McCammon

4.0

I fell in love with so many characters in this book.

1. Matthew. If I was reborn as a young man with black hair and gray eyes in the 18th century, I’d want to be him and no one else.

I have admiration for that kid bc he’s had a horrid life but is still a kind person. He has every right to be a raging serial killer but he has the composure of a monk at 13! I hope he comes back later and happier too.
