5 stars I actually adored this book and how it looks on most aspects of true crime. The death pentality and wether or not justice exists. Do these murderers deserve another chance? But I love the fact that it discusses the victims. How they are remembered. That is a problem. Media spends more time on the murderer than the victim. They become part of a series a number it's sad. I loved the fact that it's told from the people around him mostly except for the execution stuff but yeah. Even the hours before the execution uses 2nd person. Not something you see very often i think it highlights rhe depravity of his actions. How he is a person, one that yearns to be special. He isn't. When you look at it from his perspective you almost believe his genius.  But from others you realize how forgettable and pathetic he is. Gorgeous book I loved it. Honestly i want to analyze this book it is just SO good.
