The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson

3.0

---

I was recommended this book strongly, but my feelings are mixed. The devil is in the details, and the author spares few. I appreciate the breadth of the research, but the constantly rotating mix of characters made it difficult for me to feel attached. That said, it does well capture the bustle and clamor that is so deeply rooted in the story itself.
