Op reminds me a lot of Truman Capote actually, in so much as they're both huge fvcking fgts.

Yup. Excellent read. There's also a film that's supposed to be great starring real life murderer Robert Blake. Haven't seen it though, only saw the newer Capote film with Philip Seymour Hoffman (RIP) but that deals more with the writing of the book and Capote's relationship with Perry Smith than the actual content of it.

Only saw the movie. Always thought it was kind of strange considering Blake being charged with murder years later and a questionable, to say the least, acquittal. Kind of similar to hearing that OJ Simpson was the original choice to play the Terminator.

I get a lot of reading material and I'm not so good with the time managing.

So I learned to improve my reading speed. It's really pretty easy, you just have to keep at it for a bit.

I recommend it to everyone.

I'm a big fan of the true crime genre, and I really liked it. It's among the better assigned readings you'll get.
