None Shall Sleep

I was really excited to read this book and I knew it was gonna be good. I was right. I thought it was really interesting and I just wanted to read more. It took me some time to finish this book just because I wasn't ready for it to end. Incredible! 4.5 stars

this is really silence of the lambs vibes which i really enjoyed. i liked learning about a killer in a very intimate way and helping that solve a case. but i didn't get any 80s vibes which made me take away a star because if a book says it's in the 80s, that is a selling point for me, and if you don't deliver imma be upset. i also thought this was gonna give mindhunter vibes but it didn't really at all which disappointed me 

Ooh this book was the best combination of Hannibal, Mindhunter, Criminal Minds and Through the Darkness but with 18-19year olds.

The first half of the book is a bit slow, a lot of interviewing and a slow buildup - you're not really sure where this book is going. Then, the novel kicks into high gear and you're in for a ride.

I loved the two leads. Emma was delightful. She reminds me of what Emily Prentiss and JJ would've been like in their younger days. Travis Bell, reminds me a lot of Morgan. But none of these book characters are a one to one copies, which I'm grateful for.

The book was lovely and gripping and thrilling. I loved it.

I think the author had written this really well as well showing that the characters have grown and learned from the experiences just within the book. It was a really good read.
