My Pet Serial Killer by Michael J. Seidlinger
1.0
This is the worst case of “amazing concept terrible execution” I’ve ever seen. I gobble up serial killer media and will put up with a hell of a lot. I’ve rarely read prose this bad in my entire life.
This is all stream of consciousness from the girl who has more or less adopted a serial killer boyfriend and has a dominant relationship to him. This story sounded like a dream for me. A perfect match.
Little did I know the prose was unconnected choppy and isolating ranting that doesn’t allow you to connect with or understand any of the characters or their relationships. Remember Girl A? If you thought that was bad, this is worse. The lack of spirit, passion, sex, or anything resembling a personality in a book with a concept THIS good earns a rare and furious one star from me. This book needed an editor before getting dropped off to print.
