Title: Still enjoyable after watching the series first
Review: Perhaps I'd have given it a 5 if I had read it before watching the series. Unfortunately, it was hard to shake the characters I've come to know and love from the television. Not all the characters are represented in the same fashion within in the book.However, I know the show came out of the book. And what the book did well was develop the character of Dexter. Usually as readers we don't connect with and essentially fall in love with a serial killer. But Dexter is... different. Endearing? He struggles to fit in and be seen as normal, which many of us have experienced even without such a dark secret such as his.It's hard to call him a bad guy. He has redeeming qualities. And he has a Code that he adheres to.If you enjoy suspense thrillers, police dramas, etc. and are looking for something different - I'd recommend checking this one out
