⭐️⭐️ Far-fetched, and at times, gruesome backstory on Lecter. Thank the gods it was shorter than Hannibal, but still not a great read. That the first two books were utterly brilliant and that the last two were so not is truly disappointing.

I don't know exactly what I was expecting when I started this book, but it definitely wasn't this.
I've read this series in publication order, so I knew Hannibal. But knowing the why behind Hannibal gives this whole series a different feel.
I'll have to go back and read it chronologically.

I have officially finished the Hannibal Lecter series! This explores Hannibal‘s origins and the atrocities he goes through in Lithuania during WWII. We finally see what made him the way he is. It‘s rough reading at times but I did find it satisfying and was oddly rooting for him on his quest for revenge for his sister Mischa‘s brutal death at the hands of a gang of despicable war criminals. I‘m excited to finally watch the show. This doesn‘t ⬇️
Wow, what a childhood Hannibal had. What makes a serial killer? What makes a cannibal? This was a great read into a look at what made the man.
It's been a long time. I put down my phone for a while, social media was becoming so hectic. So of course I immersed myself in books. I decided recently to read some books I was never allowed to read when I was younger, and the first set I went with is the Hannibal Lecter books by Thomas Harris. Currently trying to read them in chronological order. I am in love with these books and it's the perfect time of year ❤
I know that many people feel this book was a let down from the previous books in the series. I really appreciated getting to know Lecter‘s upbringing, and all things that made him trick so to speak. I didn‘t feel it was a let down. I enjoyed it. It was a bit slow for my taste. I appreciated but didn‘t love it.
Diving into the last book in the series aka the prequel. Sad to be saying tata to this sexy psycho
Found these new for a good bargain yesterday & couldn‘t help myself! I‘ve read all except the tagged book. I enjoyed them enough to buy & then re-read them. Now all I need is Red Dragon & the tagged book. 📚🎶
A bit late with the Halloween reads, but Halloween is all year round, right? Having devoured the rest of the series, it seems a bit strange to end with a young Hannibal, but for a while I thought I'd mislaid this book. Finally ready to revisit the ultimate prince of darkness! #currentlyreading #catsoflitsy #cats #horrorfiction #spooky #covercrush

How did I choose this book: I chose it because I was camping with my dad and didn‘t bring a book to read and it started raining and he told me that there were some books in the cupboard above his bed.
Write a brief summary of the novel: Who was the protagonist? What was the problem and how was the problem solved
The story of Hannibal Lecter's origin didn't captivate me. Critical plot points felt rushed and dull. There's something about the pacing and language that I couldn't get behind.
This book was the best of the series in my opinion. It allows the readers to meet and get to know Hannibal in a new dark light.
“Are you looking for sympathy? You'll find it in the dictionary between shit and syphilis.” -Hannibal Lecter
Yaaaass young Hannibal.
It's always the good ones that end up messed up.
Liked this one more than Hannibal
“Hannibal had entered his heart‘s long winter. He slept soundly and was not visited in dreams as humans are.”
― Thomas Harris, Hannibal Rising
