Welcome to Litsy!

I really enjoyed this. Action packed and great characterization, plus I loved Marc. Can‘t wait for the next book in this series!

I didn‘t know I‘d get regional history as well on this read. Interesting and curious, the author covers these crimes well. At times you cheer on the arsonists, the cops, and everybody between. Not as true crime as some prefer but thoughtful all the same

This true crime story of arson in rural Virginia started out strong. I was quickly brought into the story and wanting the backstory for the people involved.

However, as the story unfolds, I felt the writing became boring and the answers sparse.

It's an easy, quick nonfiction read, but I just personally found it lacking, especially in the courtroom scenes.

Overall, I‘d call this a weak pick. The concept was interesting and I really enjoyed the first 2/3 or so of the story. I just felt the last third or so of the book dragged once the court room stage started. I give the author kudos for the fact that the audiobook only lasted 7.5 hours, but even that felt a bit long with how the last 2.5 hours or so lost momentum.

Come on, Baby, light my fire…

Read for a book club pick. Not really sure why it got turned into a book. I didn‘t think it was that interesting.

Interesting true story of a fireman arsonist.

This was an interesting read about the fires that occurred on the Eastern Shore of VA. Two lovers light a series of fires for a multitude of reasons..but mostly for love. Short easy read, Monica Hesse made the book feel like a novel so it was enjoyable and easy to follow.
