This book constantly swings between being promising and completely irrelevant. It is constantly confusing and frustrating. I understand why he devoted significant chapters to his past and family. But why he kept revisiting Michelle Mcnamara's life and work a bit too much. I understand his contirbution to “I'll be gone in the dark” but it felt like he was overplaying it? (could be wrong here) but the mention of Michelle felt repetitive and desire to deeply associate her work with him?
The chapters were he used social media for solving crimes were my favourite, they packed a punch, talked about hardships and real-life challenges. It was also comforting to see vcitim's families finding closure and justice.
But around 80% mark I read about Jensen's recent controversies and allegations against him with made the last parts ... uncomfortable to read. Maybe there'll be investigations but until then seeing someone driven to get justice be the one to have victims made me qweezy.
