First off, I received this book in the mail one morning last week and flew through it in a few hours!
This book was so unique! I have never read a book within a book before. The true-crime memoir written within felt SO real (and really reminded me of I’ll Be Gone In The Dark). I love true-crime so this really intrigued me and I left the book almost feeling as though Jim Doyle was a real person and these were real crimes. However, I actually found myself enjoying Jim’s chapters more. They were more fast-paced and his narration is so intense and creepy. Overall, I did predict the ending, but I read A LOT of thrillers so I think that lots of people could really enjoy the final twist!
The Nothing Man is the perfect mix of a fast-paced thriller with a twisted main character and a true-crime memoir which leaves you feeling for the victims and craving justice. As I said before it’s hard to not find yourself so wrapped up in the story that you start to believe it’s real! Moreover, I also appreciated the message - that although people do have fascinations with serial killers, the focus should be on the victims, rather than the over sensationalised killers.
I just loved it and can’t wait to read Catherine‘s next book!
