This book kind of solidifies my opinion about weird true crime junkies. Look man, I get it. It's morbidly interesting and makes you feel a little adrenaline. It's all so mysterious and violent that it feels separate from real life. I've been there, I've listened to true crime podcasts and watched the youtube videos. But at some point you have to realize that this is weird and those events truly happened to someone and that you, a random person, is not the "key to the case". You're just consuming trauma-porn of the worst day of someone's life. Like if you can't be self aware, then wtf. This lady let it take over her entire life.
I thought the book was well written and I thought the case was well laid out, thought I wish we hadn't focused on the lady obsessed with this guy rather than the victims. I feel like we really skipped over a lot of women, like they were just pins on a map. I'd never heard of this guy before and I hate to think that all those women had to live through such a horrid experience. Their safety had to be shattered so thoroughly. And I can't imagine you being married to one of those women and having to see someone you love so much be hurt like that. It's horrible.
