Made it to 10% & completely bored. The narration imo falls flat & devoid of appropriate emotions. I was already getting feeling/impression that culpability would not be placed on BTK but everything/everyone else (although I could be wrong).

👎🏻Just not for me.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I thought I enjoyed sleep. Why do I read this stuff?! Curiosity? Is my brain broken? After reading his daughter‘s memoir, it felt natural to read about Dennis Rader‘s ultimate takedown. That, of course, includes the painful details of his crimes. I laughed as this book highlighted how truly stupid he was right before being caught. Technological advances will get your ass! May he rot in prison until unusually old. Death would be a respite.

Bklover I love reading this stuff I think I could read true crime all day long. I think my brain‘s broken too! 2y
britt_brooke @Bklover It‘s bizarrely fascinating! 2y

⭐️⭐️ BTK‘s daughter Kerri can shout it all she wants, but there‘s zero space for the forgiveness of serial killers. This forgiveness thread combined with her bizarre compulsion to tell people who her father is was very odd to me, as was her generally nonchalant attitude. Surely all of these things are coping mechanisms. IDK. I don‘t envy her experiences. Sadly, not a book I‘d recommend, though.

So. This book was not for me. Not really what I expected. (I should have known with “faith” in the title). I mean good for her that it helped her in her healing just … I just don‘t particularly like hearing prayers over and over. :(

This was my #doublespin for July. It was fine - I did not like the audio narrator but the story was good enough to press on. Ultimately I felt like it was too long. @TheAromaofBooks

Woke up in the middle of the night not feeling that well, so I decided to read this. I‘m on a true crime kick and this book offers a much different perspective than the usual. I just want to give this woman a hug and tell her it‘s not her fault. (Also, I feel much better now.)

This was written with little to no emotion. Yes, she‘s recounting the story of her learning about her dad being BTK and how she dealt with that. But it read robotic and at times as if she was writing a shopping list. As a memoir goes this is flat. As a true crime book it‘s lacking.

Wonderful book about a staid woman named Cora who agrees to act as chaperone when 15 year old contemptuous Louise Brooks from Wichita, KS goes to NYC to study with a prestigious dance school for the summer. Both of their lives are changed dramatically by what occurs that summer.
