Talking with Serial Killers

Oh dear, this was a struggle. It feels as the the author strives to be a fiction writer with little success, the book is written with additional theatrics and additions which make it a difficult read. 

The structure is also confusing at best, as there is very little distinction between fact, reliable confessions, and pure speculation. Similarly, the book itself is predominantly talking about the killers, rather than (as the title would suggest) talking with them. I feel as though this is unfortunate as the author clearly has an abundance of information through the interviews overall.

Perhaps my expectations were misdirected, and though difficult it was still a book I could get through.

An interesting read, in regards to the Killers' methodology and the proceedings of their crimes- but the title of this book is misleading. There is little, if any, input from the offenders in question. Also, there's minimal insight made in regards to their cognitive processes and other similar internal processes- so there's no 'journey' made into their minds.

All in all, a good read for learning about the crimes themselves, but not as great if you want insight into their Psychological processes.
