The Zodiac Killer by W.L. Knightly started out very well, I read the first half in one sitting. I was
okay with it going into their personal lives because that makes for a
well rounded character. But when it gets to the point of him needing to
shave to eat his wife, without the sex scene, it is no longer character
development but a waste of space/words that have no bearing whatsoever
on the story. The whole serial set of books is fine but they should not
be putting a $3-5 price tag on each book unless they are full length.
The book puffed up with irrelevant scenes (if they had sex and it was a
full scene then that might have been relevant) and makes me think to
stretch it to 13 books they are all going to be this way. The BDSM and
CBT scenes were needed in this book to go with what I think is going to
be the eventual story line, so I will disagree with others who say it is
over the top or not needed. Honestly, the editing and story line were
very good.
There are a few things that dropped it from 4 stars to 2 for
me:
1. To puffed up and should have been an entry novella,
2.
unnecessary scenes (called down to mom's nursing home for a fall didn't
need 2 pages just a paragraph),
3. I figured out they are around
29 years old but very few people are as far in their careers or as
knowledgeable and experienced as they seem to be at this age,
4. They have the
emotions and interactions of junior high students not the seasoned
adults they should be.
