Title: Creepily Enjoyable
Review: The great thing about this novel is the very clearly defined voice of Dexter, the friendly neighborhood serial killer. The author has created such a memorable character, who we like in spite of ourselves--and he has such a distinctive voice. The story is told in the first person, and the story can admittedly get a bit flimsy sometimes. But it doesn't matter, because Dexter's distinctive declarations (sorry, couldn't resist) are so enjoyable. I could practically *hear* him speaking. And with such an original idea--the author pretty much turns this genre on it's head. I usually don't read crime novels, but made an exception for this. Now I'm looking forward to reading the next novel in the series.
