Product Description
When we hear about a Serial Killer, we never consider the sex, we would immediately assume a man...right? but that's not always the case! Females are for the most part, the loving and caring protectors of our species and the ones that are more susceptible to danger. However, they are in fact the most dangerous because they are the least suspected of the Serial Killers. Like their male counterparts, they show no remorse and have no mercy for their victims. Should we still call them the weaker sex?

I got this on Amazon as a free Kindle book. The title caught my attention and I was somewhat interested in the topic so I thought I might as well download it.

The beginning of the book was quite well written. However, as I progressed on, it started to get confusing. The author would sometimes use the people's first name, and sometimes the last name, making me lose track of actually who is who. There were also some editing issues that started to irritate me, but it was nothing serious.

By the second part of the book, the author turns rather colloquial and even adds a lot of unecessary "author's notes" (or really, "author's commentaries") which broke the pace in which I was reading.

For example, he would be listing a few deaths by one of the killers, and then add an author's note with "this is starting to get repetitive" or some phrase like that, which, I think, is totally uneccesary.

Also, in the latter part of the book, the author details a few cases, however, each case is presented in a different manner. Like, in one of the case, he provides a "victims list", while in the other cases, even when there are known victims, there is no such list.

Editing, formatting, presentation, the author's little add-ins and the tone aside, this book was pretty informative, and gave me the shudders. It's really unfanthomable that someone could be able of such killings..
