Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay


TITLE:  Darkly Dreaming Dexter
AUTHOR:  Lindsay, Jeff
GENRE:  Fiction/Crime
DATES READ:  7/3/2012 -  7/5/2012
MY RATING:  4/5

This book was so much fun to read.  What a thriller!  The idea for this novel/series is so unique and really breaks the mold on the Crime genre.

The character of Dexter is so novel and surprisingly endearing... for a serial killer.  He is peculiar, curious, and charming.  Even with his lack of emotion, he has so much depth and personality.  And what a strange experience, to be reading from the point of view of a killer.

Jeff Linsday truly took a sick and twisted character and made his trustworthy.  You'll be slightly frightened to find your inner Dark Passenger chanting "Go, Dexter, go!".  No wonder the casting director chose Michael C. Hall to play him.  What a fantastic choice!

I cannot wait to read the next book as well as start the Showtime series.
