Book Review of Before He Wakes: A True Story of Money, Marriage, Sex, and Murder

Before He Wakes: A True Story of Money, Marriage, Sex, and Murder
reviewed on + 40 more book reviews


This is a true-crime book, that is, based on a true life story, including photos of persons involved. The story is so engrossing to make it feel like it can only be a work of fiction; to know there are people such as the 'villain' of this story is very disturbing to me. This author has written other true-crime books, and I'm torn between wanting to read them because they are well-written and engrossing and not wanting to read them because I don't necessarily want to know that these kinds of people exist in my world.

I would highly recommend this book based on the writing skills.
