i originally wanted to read this because it’s on the 1001 books to read before you die list (yes, ugh, i know!) and i have been known to enjoy true crime every now and then.
this entire book reads like a law and order: SUV fanfiction. honestly, it’s just pure copaganda and i shouldn’t be shocked by that at all but it was just so so bad.
to summarize so no one else has to read this:
we’re COPS and we have DICKS and we solve CRIMES but we also like BOOZE and BOXING and are engaged in a bizarre throuple situation.
why was everyone pretending to be someone else??? legitimately everyone was secretly an actor?? i have to laugh, im sorry!
