This is pure ridiculous, problematic, offensive trash! So, yeah--it's a pick! 🗑👍😁

A delightful little gem. Highly recommend. Especially as an antidote to the mundane Thursday murder club.

The story is crazy and over the top, and the MC Lottie is pretty lovable. On the one hand, she‘s a sweet and unsuspecting senior citizen with bingo games at her church and ailments galore. On the other hand, she‘s left a years-long trail of murders in her wake and isn‘t above committing more to keep her name clear. No one is safe around Lottie.

This be a super fun TV show. I hope someone develops it. 🔪🔨📺

MyNamesParadise I‘m really excited for this one! I think I‘m going to listen to the audio! 1mo

I see a lot of people hate this book. It seems people had trouble with the structure, I read it a lot like The Devil In The White City. Multiple stories across the same time line. Mental disorders being related to pollution is seems too hard for people to believe, I saw a lot of hate for that. While it is an untested theory, are we too arrogant to believe there isn‘t something to all the environmental destruction? I say try this book.

CSeydel It‘s absolutely easy for me to believe mental disorders are linked to pollution. We know lead pollution has major cognitive effects. We know exposure to certain pesticides is linked to Parkinson‘s disease. What else do people think cause mental illnesses? Gods wrath? 1mo
CSeydel We know the guy who committed the San Ysidro McDonalds murders was likely a victim of occupational cadmium poisoning. For every one we know about I‘m sure there are dozens of other, less sensational examples. 1mo

Family playing in front of Ruston home as Tacoma smelter blows lead and arsenic. It would coat everything, animals would lick it off their paws and die. The greed of men truly knows no bounds.

This book was pretty heavy. I found the parts with the smelters to be the most interesting but found the murder details to the victims to be too sickening. Some say the bridge parts were boring but that bridge was a killer! Those bridges were perfect examples of greed and inaction by those in charge, choosing profit over the countless lives it took. This book is equally daunting as it is fascinating but i literally need months to recover from it

Both novellas were twists on horror staples - the hitchhiking murder and the babysitter on Halloween. Both were pretty bonkers. I liked The Babysitter Lives a little more, it just dragged at the end. It had the far better protagonist though. The female protagonist of Killer on the Road was very frustrating. I‘d give Killer on the Road 3⭐️ and The Babysitter Lives 4⭐️.
#doublespin read done!

TheAromaofBooks Great progress!! 1mo
