Six Stories | Matt Wesolowski

Right up my alley, a book in the form of a true crime podcast, a cold case set in the woods and marshes of England. Throw in some folklore and a great twist and you have a great read. At least I think so. Thanks for the heads up @Reggie 🖤

I am reading The Good Samaritan and it is as engaging as I expected. Next will be Six Stories because of @Reggie ‘s review. And I have one more book to read from the #womensprize longlist. I haven‘t heard much about it but it does sound good.

Reggie I hope you like it! 5d

In 1997, the body of teenager Tom Jeffries is discovered in the marshland, a year after he had disappeared. 20 years later, a Serial type of podcast revisits his unexplained death in 6 interviews with people close to situation. This was great. A little frustrating because people are always holding something back and you just want to scream-Just tell us!!! This has some nice folklore misdirection, I was starting to believe in Nana Wrack. lol,Pick!

BarbaraBB I had this one stacked since @vivastory talked about the series but now I couldn‘t wait any longer and bought a copy online 2w

vivastory This book has one of my favorite twists 2w

vivastory @BarbaraBB I think you'll like it. I somewhat recently finished the series & it's interesting to see how the evolution of podcasting & true crime reporting is reflected in the books themselves 2w

CarolynM I often think that about murder mysteries, both books and TV or film. I wonder how true it is, do so many people really not tell everything to investigators? Why wouldn‘t you just spit everything out? 2w

Reggie @BarbaraBB Scott and a found footage horror Reddit were the reasons I read this. 2w

Reggie @vivastory It was effing BRIAN MINGS!!!! Who saw that coming?!!!! Lol 2w

RohitSawant The spoiler tags have me so intrigued 😄 Need to check this out soon! 1w

So I‘m about 1/4 into this book and it‘s taking me a while to read it. I think it‘s mainly due to how much school work I‘ve been doing and how much I‘ve been working! (Peep the pink scrubs 👀) I‘m hoping to spend some more time this weekend reading it and hopefully relaxing before Midterms start!

The Last Book on the Left: Stories of Murder and Mayhem from History's Most Notorious Serial Killers | Ben Kissel, Marcus Parks, Henry Zebrowski

so-so

There's not really much new here if you are at all familiar with the most well-known serial killers of the 70s and 80s. If you aren't familiar with the likes of Bundy, Dahmer, Gacy, and BTK, then this has some good introductory material. The book is a spin-off of a podcast. I've never listened to it and honestly probably won't. The attempts to interject humor weren't funny. They just felt disrespectful to the victims.

Not quite half way through. The plot is off the rails, but I do want to know what happened to Anna (Sophie?) and how Gretchen is involved. I don‘t think I will like it.
