This was a heavy read for me, and knowing that this is based on real life events just felt like a bottomless pit in my stomach the whole time. 

I love the feminist commentary, the fact that he is never named, and the beautiful way the book portrays the victims, because they were humans with complete lives too, not just numbers on a board. 

Also wonderful commentary about the incompetence of the legal system, sensationalisation of serial killings by the media, and the absolute trauma of having to live through your terrible experience over and over again.
