The Devil's Gentleman: Privilege, Poison, and the Trial That Ushered in the Twentieth Century by Harold Schechter

3.0

I don't even think I'll be able to finish this book. I love true crime novels but this one just won't end. Normally, that would be a good thing in an interesting book but I find myself bored with the writing and the excessive details. More than once I have thought to myself, "I should just go google the end of the trial so I don't have to read this book anymore..." I haven't completely given up yet but up until this point (about 60% through), it's not looking good.
