3.0

A quick read with a plot that keeps you guessing. Was hard to get into because of the narrator being a straight guy but it was interesting to read a dark, serial-killer novel where the murderer is a woman. The last quarter of the book was thrilling but felt incredibly fast compared to the rest of the plot, this was probably intentional to convey the narrators feelings.
