challenging dark reflective tense medium-paced

5.0

THIS is what a true crime novel should be about. It doesn’t feel like some flashy, exploitative story about Dahmer. Very quickly it becomes less and less about him and more and more of a commentary about how small town Americana leaves the most exploited and abused behind to keep up an image. 
The movie adaptation is bad though. Don’t bother.
