Well… that was disturbing 😳😬
I’m slowly re-reading all of Chris Carter’s books, and The Executioner might just be his most gruesome one yet. Some of the scenes? I had to pause and stare at the wall for a second. 😂 But weirdly enough, I still had fun reading it.
Is it normal to call these kinds of books my “comfort reads” after a long workday? No? Just me? Okay. 😅
Anyway, the story was intense, but I did notice a few chapters that felt like filler. The pacing could’ve been tighter, but that didn’t stop me from enjoying it. If you’re into twisted crime thrillers with next-level gore, this one delivers.
