dark emotional inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced
  • Strong character development? Yes

  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

5.0

I fear this book might have ruined my reading goal for the rest of the year because nothing else will compare. Men are infuriating, the patriarchy is infuriating, true crime is normally infuriating but this approach truly turned the narrative on its head. A fictionalised feminist re-telling of the victims of the infamous “All American Sex Killer”, painting him as the pathetic incel he truly was, is something I never knew I needed to read. Until I read it. BRAVO.
