Hard hitting read with lots of home truths

It's great to hear some real topics being discussed for a change - feminism, domestic violence, mental health and the justice system. The story is extremely dark but realistic sadly, and it's great that the writer did not hold back in showing all the different tenets of a personality. Some of the story was predictable in terms of who was sending the graphic emails, but rather than seeing it as a detective story, it's like a psychological analysis into people's characters.

Intriguing and interesting.

There for the grace of God go I

I grew up with a PTSD driven Vietnam Vet for a father, so this book reaonated very deeply with me. The father character was portrayed as very true to life. I know, because except for the domestic abuse, he was my father...the push for survival skills, self reliance and the certainty that our own government was out to get us. Kristin Hannah's brought to life the tragedy of our vets, along with the beauty of America's last frontier. Well worth your time.

Colour Me Amused

Serial killers, psychos, and two friends from Utah who talk about true crime while using dark humour and foul language. They also tell true stories sent in by listeners and advocate for victims of domestic abuse in all forms.
The full episodes these days are interspersed with minisodes (Sosodes) that include bloopers, squirrel hunts, random tangents, and additional hilarity.
If you have tender sensibilities, definitely do not listen. Otherwise, get ready to have your feelings f***ed, and stay out of chalklines!
