Did anybody else who read this also read The Jungle by Upton Sinclair? This book really brought me back to The Jungle with its descriptions of the slaughter houses.
At first I was a little put off by authenticity. There are several scenes where the author describes what Holmes or his victim is feeling or thinking. I kept thinking to myself 'I wonder how he would know this'. But, at the end, Larson describes how he fictionalized those parts. Cool, as long as he wasn't trying to pass it off as real then I was okay with it.
Great book.
