I liked this short tale.

The connection between our two main characters from early on caught my attention and I even liked their bedroom scenes which seemed to lean more towards the erotica end of things, and that isn't my favourite thing, though I must admit that after the first few scenes I got a bit fed up of the dirty-talk and just skimmed the rest of them.

As for the romance aspect I liked how it was light and easy to read. I just wish we'd had some sort of explanation for why he acted like he did, though since it's in three parts I'm sure it'll come to light in the next book.

I would be interested in continuing the series at some point.

Dirty John was a great podcast, so obviously, they created a show. I watched the show prior to listening to the podcast, but I have seen a couple of true crime specials on the story, so it wasn't a new case.

My main thought was, damn, this broad is dumb af. What the hell was wrong with her? I've only seen Connie Britton in American Horror Story, and she was dumb in that too. Maybe it's her MO, not sure. It just caused me to shake my head... A LOT.

Eric Bana was sufficiently creepy and charming. He was the best part of the whole series, and gave the strongest performance.

Would I watch it again? Probably not, but it was entertaining while I was watching it.

3.33 stars. 4 for the first two thirds, 2.5 for the last third.

I thought that this book was pretty funny in places, some of the situations, some of the phrases, some of the characters were just pretty crazy and that made me laugh. Gavin was cute. I can't quite picture a four year old like him with his dirty mouth and angelic face.

I have to admit though that I lost interest a little after the 2/3 point. They were happy, they were a family...why did it have to continue for all that extra length of time?

Nevertheless, Gavin and the crazy humour kept me entertained. I just need to decide if I want to read the next book in the series or not.
