Summary: THE BEST!
Review: I don't read that many books a year, but ,this book is probably the best best book I have read ever. I love the style, dramatic diolog, and can't wait until the sequence is written! Please let me know if this is going to movie. Would love to give you some ideas to use.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: An unique perspective of a dark soul
Review: This is a unique work which is presented entirely in character monologue, diary entries and media clippings, all of which relate to one Herman Mudgett, a man of many names and one dark purpose. To read of Herman's nonchalant attitude toward killing is equally chilling than being given blow-by-blow accounts of his misdeeds, and that for me was the true horror.

The structure of this novel may remind some of Stephen King's Carrie, which was written in a similar way. All in all, the book is a quick yet engrossing read.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Eaves dropping
Review: this is the wildest book I have ever read. This serial killer topic is intriguing to me so I have read much on the topic. It expresses the diabolical acts of murder in such a matter of fact way that you almost feel like Herman's special guest who is just " showing off" for you. The way in which it is written makes you feel as though you are eaves dropping on some juicy conversations. This absolutely holds your attention and keeps you anticipating the next page. It is in no way predictable. One piece of advice I would give a reader is to pay attention to the various characters and how they relate. It can get confusing because there are so many including all of Herman. All in all this is a book well worth reading.
