5.0

Brilliantly written and expertly narrated, Notes on an Execution is a much heavier story than I had anticipated. While on the surface, it's a story about a serial killer who murdered several women and girls - the story is told from the perspectives of some of the women in his life. It explores intent vs impact and the far-reaching effects of our choices.  I was so completely immersed in this story that I stayed up the entire night to finish it. Highly recommend.
