This was ok but I didn't love it. 
It was written with wry humor but the narrator read it super seriously so it felt weirdly depressing. Also, nothing actually happens. There's a premise of the sister being a serial killer and the protagonist cleaning up after her. But it's really just describing that, and not anything else. I was confused at the end that there were very few actual plot points. I suppose it's a focus on the character herself but she doesn't grow or act at all during the entire book, just reacts to her sister. It's quite unfortunate and sad.
informative reflective sad slow-paced

Very well done. 9 years of collecting information by the author. This was interesting and informative, and very sad. I'm so glad the truth finally came out after so long, and I mourn for the many, many cases that never get that closure.
