Didn't have issues with sleeping at night when reading things like In Cold Blood, I'll Be Gone in the Dark, or even about Ted Bundy. I've read my fair share of realistic creepy/gruesome/scary, so fairly hard to shock me with some grittiness or shock value descriptions.
That said, I had to start skipping quite a few scenes to be able to continue sleeping at night. I found the execution of the graphic violence/descriptions in this to be more than most true crime books, and based on my very limited experience, would make Criminal Minds seem like a Rated E for Everyone kind of show.
For me, the violence and gore got to be too much, I hesitate to call it glorified but tho it's a realistic boogyman, I don't think I'll read much more of her work, if this one is anything to go by. Pretty sure I'm terrified of her now
Totally predictable if you're familiar with the typical tropes used for the genre.
All in all an ok read.
