Dexter's Final Cut

Just checked out the other reviews to find out that people seemingly hate this one? The one I just willingly gave 5 stars to (I believe a first for this series).



Spoilers?
Spoilers...




I find it really funny/odd that people are SEVEN books into a series and they are upset that a psychopathic fifty-seven-time serial killer is also willing to cheat on his wife? A wife that he has, for the last seven books, (starting as a girlfriend) stated was just a wonderful cover that helped him avoid suspicion. Not to mention that he has stated over and over that he can not feel human emotion...

This is not to knock everyone else's opinions, but as readers our liking of Dexter is our projection of him. He is a serial killer, he is a bad person, a psychopath. His humor and wit help us enjoy and continue reading, but that is not to say it makes him GOOD. I feel that his love of being admired while with Jackie Forrest and getting wrapped up in the glamour and relative fame fits perfectly into the mindset of a killer who keeps drops of blood as trophies.

Just my thoughts
