Eight Perfect Murders by Peter Swanson
4.0
4 ⭐️
This book is a nearly perfect classic mystery thriller book and I am surprised of how underrated this book is. I came across this book on Thriftbooks while looking for additional books to add on my cart for a freeship order. So so glad I picked this out because this is definitely in my top favourite thriller now.
All the categories are crossed out with pleasure. The characters are well crafted and morally grey. The pacing is fast. The structure is just right. And the plot is full of twist and turns, the kind that we can guess the killer before the ending if we pay close attention, which is the absolute best. Above all the book sticks with its intentioned metaphor and parallels throughout the whole thing, which creates a very fulfilling feeling on the last page. There are also so many references on existing mystery books which are further suggestions for a thriller fan.
Overall, very satisfied with this book! 10/10 recommended for any thriller fan!
