Reviews with content warning for Rape - Kuinka murhata mies ja päästä pälkähästä

Kitty reminded me of Joe Goldberg in the way that I just could not stop rooting for her despite knowing what she did... Joe's story was better though, as he took care of the loose ends; this story didn't even acknowledge many of the mistakes I found Kitty doing

like the police never tracked people's phones etc.

Overall a funny story, and very lighthearted considering the topic.

Solid 4 stars, literally what it says on the tin. There were a few questionable choices from Kitty that I thought would get her found out. But it was a good, mostly light, at times funny read. And quite cathartic.
I was surprised I quite enjoyed the narrative voice as well.

I enjoyed this book a lot. It worried me how much I did.
I watch a lot of true crime documentaries about serial killers and they are mostly men.
My current documentary is “Crimes that shook Britain”, and more than 90 percent of those heinous crimes are perpetrated by men. Mostly with female victims.
I had a thrill reading about a female serial killer for a change.
I loved that her victims were only men too.

Premise: Kate, a female social media influencer by day, is a serial killer by night. She hunts down and kills men who perpetuate crimes against women.

I enjoyed all her murders. A little more than I should’ve.

I had no sympathy for her victims.

In fact, I felt her to be heroic.
Even though she was a murderer. Hehe 😜

Scared me a little how much I identified with her character.

Anyhoo, she’s the female Dexter.
And we all loved him, didn’t we?
Why should Kate be any different because she’s a woman?

A dark but thoroughly enjoyable read!
