My Dark Places by James Ellroy

4.0

I've never read any James Ellroy books, so this is my first experience with him. His writing is brutal and straight forward, definitely not PC. Although it is very blunt it's also refreshing to read a book that's so honest. For Ellroy to be so honest about his obsessions and fantasies is very interesting, he really dives into his issues. It's a great story, but there were some parts in the middle where the story got a bit confusing to me. This book wasn't a page-turner for me but it was a good read, I can't wait to read his other work to see how it compares.
