A review by etrnyl
A Beautiful Crime by Christopher Bollen
5.0
5/5 stars. AMAZING. I absolutely LOVED this. The writing was a bit confusing at first, but once i got the hang of it it was just beautiful. The whole story was just beautiful and unique. I have never read anything like it before or even remotely similar. I 10/10 recommend this. I’d like to recommend it to only certain people but i thought i would just end up dnfing it so i can’t really say who’d enjoy this and who wouldn’t.
There was also AMAZING lgbtqia+ rep. There was a very lightly present gay romance in it that was just sweet but if it had been any more present it would have ruined the book. You guys all know how much i love romance so that coming from me is very rare.
When I decided to check this out from my local library I had no idea what it was about. If seen in goodreads and amazon reviews that people often compare this to the Talented Mr. Ripley. I have only watched the movie so I can’t comment on that fact yet. However, I have put it on hold so I can read it and write a review to see if they’re similar in any way.
