I like the differing pov and the sense of urgency

this is depressinggg so far but also really good
(I'm reading the large print version, this doesn't actually have 480 pages, I don't think I could take it!)

👀👀

Good book, but there’s a section that takes place in 1990, and there’s several mentions of bands that either weren’t around yet, or not prominent yet- Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Hole…. A young author, lazy research. It’s difficult to look past it.

taking a break!

skipping all of ansel’s chapters because i don’t care about him or his stupid “theory”

Gillian Flynn would love this

oh WOW i love this writing

I'm obsessed! Don't want to put this book down!

I LOVE second person POV

Can't stop

... therefore questioning my morality huft

This author has me feeling sorry for a killer

I barely have a time to read, but im enjoying this book so much T_T

I hate this book; I hate a book which can make me sympathetic toward a psychopathic killer

Shit when you put it like this, even a killer can look sexy what's wrong with me 😭

I’m scared

If Ansel criminal, why make him hot?

All of these people are so messed up

Had to stop reading for tonight, or I’d probably finish. Not sure how to gather my thoughts on the book yet, only that I’m really enjoying it.

This is very interesting so far.

It's been a while since I've had a book completely immerse me.

Ooooof

its a little weird the 2-person narrative, I am trying to get used to it

This is interesting 🤔

Wow, this book is so good! A rare combo of page turning plot, and exceptionally beautiful writing. Loving it so far. There are def dark elements but not overly gruesome or graphic. Something about it reminds me a bit of “Three Women” by Lisa Taddeo.

“Human nature could be so hideous, but it persisted in this ugliness but insisting it was good.”

😳😳

I love the prose here
