dark informative reflective sad fast-paced

5.0

A good read for those interested in true crime. It gives a complex and heart breaking perspective on what kind of life precedes the horror Dahmer inflicted.

It was a nice change to see a book about someone like this based on their life before they did what they did, it was really interesting to see from someone who actually knew him the things he noticed as he looks back on it.

challenging dark emotional mysterious sad tense slow-paced

4.0

An insightful gaze into Dahmer's past to argue he wasn't born evil but made evil by his dysfunctional family.
