3.0

The subject matter is important, and also dark. It makes me wonder how fucked up it was to just be able to go inside someone's house and rape them and leave and get away with it, over and over and over again.

The golden State killer was a rapist who became a killer, and would go inside people's homes, rape them, sometimes kill them, and leave. He was only caught in 2020, but his crimes began in the 70s. This book documents these vicious attacks, and it's disturbing to read, but also well done.

The other part of the book focuses a lot on Michelle, the writer, and sadly she had passed away before this book was released or before the killer was caught. Her story and life isn't very interesting, and drags this one down when she gets a little too much into her own life and obsession.

But overall it's a solid book, just not great, but I'm for sure locking my doors and turning on my recorders and cameras just incase from now on. A 3 out of 5.
