TheBookHippie How was it? 2mo

DieAReader I enjoyed it😏 Gave me a different perspective - I read this first:

Helter Skelter: The True Story of the Manson Murders

2mo

CoverToCoverGirl Was it better than

Helter Skelter: The True Story of the Manson Murders

2mo

DieAReader @CoverToCoverGirl I‘d say it was even😁 2mo

Helter Skelter: The True Story of the Manson Murders | Vincent Bugliosi, Curt Gentry

pick

I can see why Helter Skelter has enjoyed such enduring popularity. It‘s gripping, it‘s scandalous, it‘s horrifying, and Bugliosi‘s role gives it a ring of authenticity that you don‘t get with an outsider‘s perspective on a crime. I wouldn‘t recommend it blindly, though – you need to have a stomach for graphic detail. Full review: https://keepingupwiththepenguins.com/helter-skelter-vincent-bugliosi/

TheBookHippie I remember reading this decades ago. Unreal. 9mo

AmyG I (oddly enough) loved this book. I followed the story as a kid. And so began my love of true ceime. 9mo

This book is gruesome, terrifying, and nightmare inducing.

ChaoticMissAdventures I always think about Angela Lansbury when CM comes up. What an amazing mom she was. 2y

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 2y

CoverToCoverGirl SO happy you read this one! It was definitely a WOW read for me too. The police had no idea what they were dealing with, a lot of it was just plain dumb luck. Although in their defence the crimes committed were so heinous that they weren‘t equipped to handle what was unfolding. 2y

This one still scares the hell out of me.

Prairiegirl_reading I couldn‘t finish this one. So disturbing! 2y

lil1inblue I haven't read any books about the Manson murders, but I did listen to a really good podcast about them. It was tough listening! Haunting stuff. 2y

AmyG My most favorite true crime book. I rarely read a book twice but I read this one twice. I will date myself and say I remember reading about this as a kid in the New York Times. I was fascinated. (edited) 2y

So, I learned that before his cult days, Manson was arrested not far from where I‘m from. (Wow). Anyway this was such a great, informative read!
