#AllHallowsRead Nonfiction #scaryread This book has been on my TBR list for ages because of the combination of true crime (serial killer) and the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago and it's the first book I thought of for today's theme. Since I bought a used copy for .50 cents recently, hopefully I will get to reading it soon! 😱 #nonfictionscaryread

itsmejulie I love this book too. Read it years ago and will reread. I heard they are making it into a movie. 8y
javadiva I ended up skipping the architect part & only read the serial killer part. Haha But I did really enjoy learning about the first Ferris wheel! 8y
DebinHawaii @Reviewsbylola @Suzze @Danadug @itsmejulie I am looking forward to it! @javadiva Hah! That sounds like something I would do! 😂 8y
britt_brooke This book was good, but I wanted more Holmes as the title eluded. It's more "white city" than the "devil" in it; still a good read, though. ?? 8y
dolleygurl I thought it was a really good book. I listened to it on audio as it is one of my favorite narrators and it was well done. Enjoy! 8y

#AllHallowsRead #NonFictionScaryRead Nothing is more horrifying or scarier than reading what this young
girl/woman endured in captivity for 18 years! Her strength, determination and appreciation for life is gripping and astonishing. Love and respect to Jaycee Dugard and her family.

I can't wait to read "Les Grandes Affaires criminelles de Paris", which describes the biggest criminal cases of Paris.

"This is a book about notable achievements made while dead." Mary Roach, "Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers"

Happy to finally get my hands on some Roach! Saw her at #nationalbookfest & can't wait to read her. I know, I did it backwards. Read first, then meet author, right? Been rec'd for years, so this is happening now. It's also a pretty fitting #allhallowsread. Not a typical #scaryread, but hey, dead bodies, right? #nonfictionscaryread

Things that terrify me: plague, epidemic, the failure of our health system. I'm such a sucker for a good nonfiction about anything medicine related.
