I was looking forward to a murder mystery style book with nuclear apocalyptic themes as both of those are things I find very interesting- but it was more like a bored man's diary where he constantly inserts subtle brags about how much of a ladies man he is or how strong of a leader he is (which he isn't. He rarely ever took charge in a situation.) The main character is unlikable.
You spend the whole book telling yourself that 'anytime now, something is going to happen', and it's not until the last 10 pages or so that anything does.
And the ending... The reveal about who was the actual killer... I'm sorry, but: What the f*ck.

In terms of the documentary itself, it's definitely interesting. I wish there was a little bit more to it. The connection between the cases seems thin, but I suppose that's the point if you watch the whole film. It's unfortunate that they couldn't get the original people - the suspects, judges, and officers - for various reasons, be it death or refusal to participate. I'm curious to see the outcome now that it's been 3 years since its release.
