Review of "I'll Be Gone in the Dark" on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

This was definitely a disappointment :-( It may be that I totally misjudged what it was about, but I really expected more of the case built for the particular Golden State killer. I suppose that the subtitle of the book should have told me that it was more about the woman obsessed with the case than the case itself or the perpetrator. But even in that, it didn't seem to be as much about her as the search in general. For instance, I totally missed her marriage and who her husband was. It's possible that was brought out and I just missed it, but somehow it was about her and her obsession, it should of had more details about her more prominent. I don't know. When my expectations are totally trashed, even if that's my own fault for not interpreting the subtitle quite appropriately, it leaves a totally foul taste – especially when, even with the subtitle, it's more confusing than enlightening.
