I had been reading this over the course of 6 months, but I actually enjoyed it in the end. The beginning murders and Grace's time in the penitentiary were enjoyable, but some of the monologues was stale. I found it interesting that she was able to get away with so many murders and go completely undetected, and I found this to be fairly good in the end. Kelly deserved better (she was just trying to be nice), and the ending was a shocker. Interesting premise, and definitely a funny title.
