Welcome to Litsy!

I read this book as part of #GabyReadsBookTroop (YouTuber) and I concur with their analysis that this is more like a HF because it is based/inspired in a true case but novel is from the victims POV😢It was interesting but sometimes I don‘t know what the author wanted to emphasize, the victims?, the main character? the legal process? In my opinion I don‘t see that integration so well but this is an unpopular opinion.⬇️

Another low pick for me. Interesting re-telling of a real life serial killer from the 70s, but from some of the victims, and the victims friends, points of view. Interesting and unique way of telling the story, but about 75 pages too long. (11)
⭐️: 3.75/5

4.5⭐️/5⭐️

Just finished this one yesterday…I would give it 3.5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️ because I‘m still thinking about it the next day. I do have mixed feelings about it though.

There was a time when I was guilty of glorifying serial killers, I wrote papers about them, knew trivia, and developed a fascination. But that changed several years ago and this book cemented that decision. It‘s a fictional retelling of the Ted Bundy story without ever mentioning his name, instead it focuses on the victims and the victims who survived.

Novel chronicles two women‘s investigation of who killed their friends (Ted Bundy). I loved his name was never used and the focus was on the women, their backgrounds, and their friends. Good read.
