The Last Victim: A True-Life Journey Into the Mind of the Serial Killer by Jason Moss

4.0

This book was pretty good -- very violent, sexual and disturbing -- but good. Though I can't say that toying with the minds of various serial killers for the sake of a self-created school project was a smart idea, I can't deny that it wasn't fascinating. It's pretty clear to see that as the author pretends to be various versions of himself, changed to fit the victimology of the killers, it's clear that he's chipping away at authentic aspects of himself, which definitely beings in some questions of authenticity as a reader. You definitely get an inside glimpse into the mind of some of the most famous killers, especially Joh Wayne Gacy, which was interesting. I would recommend this for any true crime fan to check out from a library. Not really worth buying for keeps or reading a second time.
