Stephanie (stephersk) | 7 comments In Cold Blood was a really good book. I love how Capote writes. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Shay | 5 comments I am currently reading Notes on a Killing by Kevin Flynn and Rebecca Lavoie. I started last night and am 74% done with the book, it is really keeping me engaged. I am glad I picked it up. Interesting story and well-written. I love it when True Crime authors don't tell me everything about the crime up front and write the book more like a mystery. I will be looking for this author's other books.

I loved Notes on a Killing Love, Lies, and Murder in a Small New Hampshire Town by Kevin Flynn Their other books are just as good.

Amber (ghoulfriends) Mystery in white by j Jefferson farjeon, a crime story which emphasis on the element of snow makes it perfect for Christmas

I'm on my phone so i don't know how to reply to a comment, if it is even possible. Anyway I've all Kevin Flynn's books and thought they were all great.

Currently i'm reading "The Bodies in the Barrels Murders" about serial killer John Bunting.

Sheri I'm reading He Killed Them All Robert Durst and My Quest for Justice by Jeanine Pirro I recently watched The Jinx and have been obsessed with the case. It's really interesting.

Janice Booth (adventurista) | 16 comments Did you see Jeanine Pirro's self-serving documentary: The Robert Durst Murder Case: My Quest for Justice? It's terrible, like a train wreck. You want to look away, but you can't. It's worth a look though just to see what a narcissist she is. I watched the whole Netflix series the Jinx on a flight from South Africa to the US. Like you, I got sucked in and couldn't get out!

Marcia (allthesedarnbooks) | 5 comments Ok that doc sounds horribly awesome. I kinda wanna read He Killed Them All but I don't want to give Jeanine Pirro my money so I'm waiting to get it from the library. I wonder if she'll run for NYS Attorney General again on the coat tails of The Jinx lol.

Yes, let's not give that woman any of our hard earned $$$. Jeanine Pirro loves Jeanine Pirro, so whatever she needs to do to keep herself in the spotlight, she'll do. Maybe she'll wear the same horseback riding outfit she wore for an interview in the movie when she announces she's running for AG! :)

Nikki (nikkiepub) | 3 comments Currently reading No Easy Answers: The Truth Behind Death at Columbine

So far, it is fascinating.

♥ Marlene♥  | 65 comments Reading 3 books which mostly means I am not very much into them.

My main book which I am nearly done with and was way too long and way too biased even though the bias went toward the victim's family it was too much.

A Killer Among Us


Then I am also reading a "real"book I began re reading when I forgot my kindle. The Darkest Night The Darkest Night The Murder of Innocence in a Small Town by Ron Franscell . Such a sad sad story,

Then I began reading Into the Wilderness
I have never read anything by Sara Donati.

Darkest Night by Ron Franscell is a great, great book. I read it several years ago and I still think about the story.

I'm still plowing through Bad Dreams Bad Dreams by Anthony Haden-Guest by Anthony Haden-Guest. It feels more like an extended magazine article. That's not a criticism of the quality of the writing or storytelling (both of which are solid) - the book simply feels like it was written for an audience that already knows a bit about the crime, the characters and the city.
