Не будуй дрібних планів; вони не мають тієї магії, що запалює кров людей.

Made it to page 39 and had to stop. Boring, not my type of genre I like.

I started reading this with so much expectations considering the high ratings everywhere. But, it turned out to be such a dull. Two men, one architect and one serial killer, the only common factor was they were both in Chicago.

It should have been 2 separate books for completely separate audiences. “Depraved“ was such a great book on H H Holmes and completely satisfies the true crime, serial killer bug in you.

Lesliereadsalot I couldn‘t get into this one either. And so many loved it! 1mo
Bookish_Thoughts I read this years ago and remember thinking it read more like two separate books. I wasn‘t a fan, even though I‘ve liked most of his books. 1mo

Truly interesting book centered on events of 1893, including Columbia Exposition, the first modern World‘s Fair. Book covers fashion and bicycles, architecture, baseball, famous rich people, sanitation with the building of a canal and reversing Chicago River, etc. A good read if interested!

bibliothecarivs My great-grandfather Nephi Anderson attended the fair, probably in connection with the LDS Church's participation. I have his souvenir book. 3mo
KCofKaysville @bibliothecarivs That is really great! 3mo
