A review by hannahchristine
In Cold Blood by Truman Capote

dark reflective tense slow-paced

3.75

I liked how capote told the story of the murders from a perspective that included the victims as well as the murderers. Even though he did tell the stories of the murderers and made the reader feel quite sympathetic it didn't seem too sensationalized and like he excused the murderers. You could build a connection to the victims as well as the murderers but still could base your opinion on an almost objective retelling. (if you ignored Capote's bias towards Perry Smith, although not sure if he actually like him or if he was just sympathetic) Story telling to its finest.
