Dear Darkly Dreaming Dexter,
I am a huge Dexter fan, so I am not sure why you say on my TBR shelf for so long. It was so interesting and fun to jump inside Dexter's head. I loved that you gave me a perspective I didn't get from the TV show. The only thing that I wasn't a huge fan of is the fact that I kept picturing the show characters instead of the way they were described in the book. Whenever I need a return to dark and twisty and nostalgic, I will pick up the next book in your series!
