I'm not sure exactly why, although there's probably some deep-seated thing in my psyche that wants to keep a distance from the horror. But Connolly's a great writer, and this book sounds interesting. Might be time to add some true crime to my TBR list.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591679994751212734.post-34637177836776224192009-11-19T21:24:10.751+13:002009-11-19T21:24:10.751+13:00I enjoy Michael Connelly's novels, and I thoug...I enjoy Michael Connelly's novels, and I thought, ooh, I must get Crime Beat, that looks great. Then I realised, actually I own Crime Beat, and it had been hidden under a stack of books, and I must confess to having completely forgotten about it.<br /><br />Oops.<br /><br />I do like reading true crime as well, but find I have to read it in small doses, otherwise I feel icky.Vanda Symonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09956034768397598056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591679994751212734.post-79885236746370843182009-11-19T21:12:15.496+13:002009-11-19T21:12:15.496+13:00I really don't like true crime much.

I read the book that Ann Rule wrote about Ted Bundy a few years ago and although it was good I just got depressed reading it so I haven't bothered with true crime since then. I like being able to close a crime fiction book and think "how icky...glad it was only make believe" and you just can't do that with true crime.Bernadettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07641617609801125707noreply@blogger.com
