Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay
4.0
Since I saw the whole TV series before reading this book, I could find a lot of difference in elements of the plot of the book and TV series. Some of them being: fitness maniac Rita! , Angel-No-Relation, the extra lab tech Camilla figg, death of LaGuerta and most important of all Dexter’s dislike for blood !!
Some of the elements like the silent conversations between Cody and Astor and the slight indication of a Dark passenger inside him will definitely appeal to fans and I must say that the writing is humorous. The role of moon, tempting Dexter to go hunting gives this a look like a werewolf/vampire setting. I think killing LaGuerta doesn’t feel a kind of important step for the plot in this book but im sure that this will shape the plot for other books.
The best thing about the books is that Dexter doesn’t kills his brother Brian as depicted in the TV Series and this simple reason is more than enough for any true Dexter fan to read this book.
