Dexter Is Dead by Jeff Lindsay
4.0
Well.... that's the end, I guess. Huh. What do I read now when I want a likable, funny, murderous character who uses alliteration like it's going out of style?
So, at least Dexter's unfeeling character is back after making some seriously out of character, and really stupid decisions in the last book. Don't get me wrong, he seemed very uncharacteristically stupid in this book too, but just not as observant as usual. Seriously, Dex, I had it figured out 80 pages before you did. Whatever happened to listening to your Dark Passenger and going with your gut? Didn't do much of that this book, and it certainly costs him.
As much as I rag on him for being decidedly dense, and the fact I feel this book was written in a rush so that the author could just wipe his hands of a book series that got ahead of itself, I did feel the ending was appropriate. Look in the comments for more of my review on the end of the book. There will be spoilers.
