Critique Containing Books Lust Killer
I found the writing to be fantastic. Rules Stranger Beside Me had me bored throughout but in Lust Killer I was found myself unable to put it down. I definitely see why people enjoy her writing and plan to check out more of her works now.

I very seldom read true crime accounts. I generally find them horribly banal, and I get irritated at the blurbage where every serial killer victim is "beautiful" or "all American." I read this one to get anecdotes for my psychology classes and for my own writing. I thought it was well told although I didn't find the case itself terribly compelling.

Due to lack of reading material, I was forced to read Lust Killer. I wasn't too thrilled about this. I had never heard of Ann Rule, and I underestimated her because, honestly, the book just looked mediocre (I guess that goes with the saying "Don't judge a book by its cover"). I'm sorry for this, Ann. This book exceeded my expectations dramatically! This book had me hooked from almost the beginning. This was a very gruesome book, and I almost feel guilty for admitting my liking for it. It's

Ann Rule's writing has really matured from her older books like this one. For one, she no longer writes what the murder victim was thinking and feeling before and during the murder, something that drives me nuts in true crime.

Another very good book written by Ann Rule (writing as "Andy Stack"). All of the books by Ann Rule (at least all the ones I've read, and I've read a LOT!) seem to be well researched and well written. This one is about a pretty well-known sadistic serial killer, Jerome Brudos. As in all of her books, you get a bit of background info on the victims, and quite a bit of background info on the killer. In some cases, with the background information, you can easily see how the monster was created. In
