A review by daniellekat
Lady Killers by Tori Telfer

dark funny informative fast-paced

2.75

The conclusion actually improved my feelings on this book. I initially thought this was very repetitive and focused a little too heavily on historical tales, but apparently that was by design. I appreciate that the author took a minute to recognize the racial biases present, but wish Telfer spent a little more time editing to make this less Eurocentric. The language was easy to read and navigate (at times a little gruesome but not overly explicit). Cutting a couple chapters would have improved the overall work given how similar a few were. I loved the artwork but thought the organization of the book (or lack thereof) was bizarre. Solid effort but not an author I'd gravitate to again.
