4.5

This was such an incredibly messed up book, yet was one of my favorite reads of the year so far. 

Being inside of the head of a serial killer is never a good thing and this book really drove it home. The descriptions of the main characters murders were so graphic is made my stomach turn, but the vivid descriptions of food would make me hungry a page or two later. It was such a strange juxtaposition. The main character's complete lack of empathy and emotion was stunning.

I recommend this one, but know what you're getting into.
