The scariest book I've *attempted* to read this year! The mind of a serial killer! Even scarier when I think about the fact that my parent's house is in the same neighborhood as where he killed one of his victims. You never truly know who walks among you. #AllHallowsRead @Litsy #ScaryRead

[DELETED] 206653737 Wow, that is creepy that it was so close to home for you. Not sure I would have been able to read that one either. 8y
books_cats_art @bookish22 BTK was active in the Wichita area for somewhere around 30 years. He was in the Air Force, worked for a home security company installing security alarms (during a time when he was actively killing people), was a dog catcher and compliance officer, Cub Scout leader, and church president. For me, the scariest thing is that he was able to blend in so well with the community and how well he was able to fake being normal. 1/2 8y

I don't know why, but I've always been fascinated by true-crime. I'm looking forward to reading this one.

StellaDz I am the same. My Kindle is loaded up with true crime books. I have to be in a special mood to read them, so I haven't cracked any of them yet. 8y
JoeStalksBeck Nice! Must read! I can't even think of a proper word to describe this guy. Psychopath is too kind 8y
DiruVamp I've always been interested by true crime as well. I highly recommend about a college student who interviews John Wayne Gacy. Very good! 8y

TheJOMOreader I have this one in my Kindle. I can't wait to get into it! 8y
KrisConstantReader @DiruVamp thanks for the recommendation. I'd recommend this one. It's been ages since I read it but I remember it being fantastic. 8y
KrisConstantReader @StellaDz same here, I think I have dozens in my iBooks. My first and closest cousin was murdered years ago, so I have to be able to separate her from my mind when reading true crime. 8y
KrisConstantReader @LindsayInTheLibrary it seems to be somewhat of a psychological study, so it should be interesting. 8y
StellaDz @KrisConstantReader omg I am so sorry to hear that. 8y
KrisConstantReader @StellaDz thank you so much. It happened way back in '91 but it never leaves you. 8y
