I’m fairly certain I’m predisposed to disliking this book, as a regular critic of True Crime and especially True Crime Culture. That said, I saw this recommended somewhere, there was a copy available, I had a bit of time. I should have read something else. This gets an extra star because the writing itself isn’t awful and it does try to do something different (though I don’t think it succeeds). It isn’t half as clever as it thinks it is, in my opinion, however. That might be unfair, but, I’ve tried to convince myself to like it more and I can’t.
