A review by heatherd
In Cold Blood by Truman Capote

dark informative slow-paced

4.0

I first read this book over a decade ago and I remember loving it. This time around, I enjoyed it a lot, and I can see how it became so famous - Capote's writing and storytelling is excellent. This true crime story is almost unbelievable in how (almost) random the motive ended up being. I was drawn into the lives of the victims and the perpetrators, and had a difficult time putting the book down, even though the pace and writing style is extremely slow and drawn-out. This book is a classic for a reason.
