Dexter's Final Cut
Dexter's Final Cut: Dexter Morgan (7) | Jeff Lindsay
12 posts | 21 read | 8 to read
With 1.7 million copies of the Dexter novels sold, and ever-increasing critical acclaim, Jeff Lindsay returns to his groundbreaking and beloved character with his most entertaining book yet. Get ready for a grisly send-up of Hollywood, and a full dose of dark Dexter wit. Lights. Camera. Mayhem. You won't find this story on television. Hollywood gets more than it bargained for when television's hottest star arrives at the Miami Police Department and develops an intense, professional interest in a camera-shy blood spatter analyst named Dexter Morgan. Mega-star Robert Chase is famous for losing himself in his characters. When he and a group of actors descend on the Miami Police Department for "research," Chase becomes fixated on Dexter Morgan, the blood spatter analyst with a sweet tooth for doughnuts and a seemingly average life. To perfect his role, Chase is obsessed with shadowing Dexter's every move and learning what really makes him tick. There is just one tiny problem . . . Dexter's favorite hobby involves hunting down the worst killers to escape legal justice, and introducing them to his special brand of playtime. It's a secret best kept out of the spotlight and away from the prying eyes of bloated Hollywood egos if Dexter wants to stay out of the electric chair. The last thing he needs is bright lights and the paparazzi. . . but even Dexter isn't immune to the call of fame. Jeff Lindsay's razor sharp, devilish wit, and immaculate pacing prove that he is in a class of his own, and this new novel is his most masterful creation yet.

#ReadAway2024 #SeriesLove2024 This is the seventh book in the Dexter series, and it‘s getting a little stale, and maybe Dexter is getting too long-winded. I don‘t think there‘s as much black humor as in previous books and I missed that. The humor was my favorite part of the series. But I‘m still giving this a pick because some momentous things happened. And it‘s also a huge cliffhanger leading into the final book.

Andrew65 Excellent 👏👏👏 Not a series or author I know. 11mo
CatLass007 @Andrew65 Have you heard of the Showtime series Dexter? It aired on Prime TV for a while, which is where I watched it. Then they did a follow up series a couple of years ago and it all went back on Showtime. I‘ve never had Showtime.🤷‍♀️ I can‘t finish watching the original series or any of the new series. Dexter is a forensic analyst for the Miami police and also a serial killer who only kills other killers. It sounds strange but it works. 11mo
Andrew65 @CatLass007 Yes I think I‘ve heard of it but never actually seen it. I will explore and see if it is available in the U.K. Thanks for the information. 11mo

CatLass007 @Andrew65 You‘re welcome. I didn‘t realize you were in the UK. That‘s definitely a reason for you not to have heard of an American tv show. If I were you, I‘d try to read the books (in order) before watching the show. There are a lot of differences between the two but I think some of the roles were exceptionally well cast: Dexter, Deb, Vince in particular. Other characters were changed. Both media are excellent and tell different stories. 11mo
Andrew65 @CatLass007 Although I‘m in the U.K. I‘m sure the series played here thinking of it. Always better to read the books first. 11mo
CatLass007 @Andrew65 I agree that reading the book(s) first is always advisable. 11mo

I‘m listening to the seventh and next to last book in the Dexter series. “The Princess Bride” reference was amusing and appreciated. I was quite surprised because I have a tough time imagining Dexter watching such a sweet movie.

7-27-22: My 72nd finished book of 2022! Book 7 in the series. In this one we find Dexter and his cop sister, Deborah, assigned to help some famous actors learn all about murder investigations and forensic science so they can film a new pilot. The murders they are following are a psychotic serial killer murdering girls with blond hair heinously. Dexter is assigned to Jackie Forrest and his life is changed drastically. One more book to go!

September #BookSpin done (I'm slowly catching up!) @TheAromaofBooks

I didn't love this... To be fair to the book, I really shouldn't have read most of the series then paused for several years before reading the last book. But that's what ended up happening, so I had trouble engaging with the book. Ah well. Feels great to have finally finished the series though!

TheAromaofBooks Great progress!! 4y

Nothing more annoying than having an audio hold expire on you before you finish and having to get waitlisted again. #polygamistreaderproblems

I'm telling you. I don't think anyone can get through this series without developing a serious doughnut dependency. 🍩 🤤

Like the later seasons of the TV show based on these, it just feels like I'm reading this out of obligation. However, I quit the show midway through season 7.

As a character, Dexter, keeps getting further from his starting point. He's become a guy who stumbles into situations rather than being the merciless serial killer killing serial killer he started as.

Predictable, little entertainment, & a cliffhanger finish. Only one more to go at least.
