Publisher's Summary

After killer Shelia Eddy pled guilty to first-degree murder and was sentenced to life in prison and Rachel Shoaf was sentenced to thirty years for second-degree murder, family, friends, investigators, and other key sources reveal the facts you would have learned if the case had gone to trial.

Including specific details drawn from Rachel's confession, Pretty Little Killers looks at the crime through the eyes of the victim and killers, providing intimate testimony from the pages of Rachel's personal journal, Skylar's diary and school papers, and court records. Daleen Berry and Geoffrey C. Fuller examine all this, including previously unreported details about Rachel and Shelia's rumored lesbian relationship, and explain why more than one investigator believes that Skylar's murder was a thrill kill. Most important, Pretty Little Killers provides a satisfying answer to Skylar's final question: "Why?"

Sehr anstrengend

Die Geschichte springt hin und her, erläutert langwierig unwichtige Details, bringt dann Diagnosen wie Psychopathie ins Spiel ohne zu erklären, ob diese wirklich gefestigt sind. Man erfährt in welchen Positionen die Teenager Sex haben, warum sie ihre Freundin umgebracht haben aber nicht. Am Ende gibt es Tipps, wie man seine Kinder beschützen kann. (Bestechend, wie immer von 'your child' gesprochen wird, dann aber 'her' gesagt wird. Die Regeln gelten wohl nur für Mädchen). Laut der Autorin soll man sein Kind überwachen, online, auf dem Handy und auch beim Shoppen. Fenster sollen verschlossen werden, damit es nicht abhauen könnte, die Tür zum eigenen Zimmer hingegen immer offen. Wenn einem die Freunde des Kindes nicht gefallen direkt den Kontakt verbieten. Probiert der Teenager Alkohol oder Gras sofort bestrafen, denn dies führt unabdingbar zur Sucht.

Die Sprecherin macht das Buch leider nach nicht besser. Alles wird besonders aufregend betont, wie bei einem Kinderbuch.

Sensationalized and assuming, occasionally chiding

This is a book about a real thing written as if it were a fictional book. It doesn’t help that the author honest to God says “parents always know better than their children” multiple times throughout, which is just not at all true nor helpful. The author is often patronizing, even as she does sometimes do a good job getting into a teen girl’s head and relating the thoughts she thinks they may have had.

It is an interesting way to experience this story, but I don’t know if it’s the best way.
