This is my first book by Jenny Toupin. I received this as an arc, and now I know exactly why I was told that I would love this. Because I do. Granted, I knew that this was going to be based on a true story, and as a true crime junkie, I knew this case. I've listened to podcasts and videos talking about this case a lot, and in saying that I think that Toupin did an amazing job at not allowing the case to overwhelm her own storytelling. Because I read this as a fiction book. I read this as a novel written by a very talented writer. Her writing skills are exceptional. I was able to feel for the characters, I was invested in them and their lives, and I think her style was very easy to read and captivating. And in doing so I did spend most of the book forgetting that it's based on a true story. Because obviously this is still a fictional novel, and it could have been very difficult to blur the line of fiction in reality, but I think Toupin did it exceptionally. I definitely wouldn't mind reading more of her work.
