It was really hard to rate this book. I had a really hard time getting into it and it had some slow moments in the first half but the writing throughout was undeniably brilliant and without giving away too much, it was so interesting to read how Mr. Ripleys brain worked. The last 80 or so pages are intense, crazy ending
