Did you read Gilbert King's Devil in the Grove? Erin Mitchell recommended this one to me - bought it for me, in fact, and I was blown away.

But it's also full of information and revelations. I had NO idea about some of the story here, and it was fascinating--start to finish. Can't recommend more highly, though recognize/understand the hesitation.Art Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02409008167752619352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119990365479009764.post-64834369506356302652016-10-05T10:56:00.257-05:002016-10-05T10:56:00.257-05:00Thanks, Art.

Cullen's book has been on my list for awhile, although I suspect it will be a painful read. I've never heard of the Lowry book so I'll add that, too.Holly Westhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08910436592791818527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119990365479009764.post-81668220616930185792016-10-05T07:32:03.996-05:002016-10-05T07:32:03.996-05:00Congratulations again on your Ripper story, Holly!...Congratulations again on your Ripper story, Holly! As I said before, I loved it--and I'm so pleased to see it honored in this new anthology now, and in such good company! <br /><br />Love the list of true crime books too--and I'm glad to recommend a favorite of mine, though it's in a slightly different direction (mixing in memoir not as explicitly about crime): Beverly Lowry's <i>Crossed Over: A Murder, A Memoir</i>. And I also think that Dave Cullen's <i>Columbine</i> is tremendous in its scope and its emotional power.<br /><br />Thanks for the post here--sharing soon!Art Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02409008167752619352noreply@blogger.com
