For the most part I didn’t find this as gripping as the other entries in this series, but in the last hundred pages it becomes impossible to put down. This book is haunting. The world within is sick and twisted but so devastatingly real. I have never read a series as terrifying as AGGGTM.

The first few chapters of this book was slow and tbh I thought it was all going to be a transcript of the trial, but then things happened, and things got interesting and then the pace started to quicken. 
From page 200 until completion I could not put the book down. I was completely immersed in the story. 
Once again similar to agggtm my thoughts of who and why changed the more I read, and once again I did not guess who the culprit was or why.
