Book Reviews of Strictly Murder!: A Writer's Guide to Criminal Homicide
Book Review: Good and Easy to Read
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm attempting to write a hard boiled mystery and I've read almost everything I can get my hands on on crime and writing.This is a great book cuz it has short, informative chapters and also suggestions on where to get more information.
My only complaint/gripe is that he doesn't explain the jargon in a few places. I felt I could have used a few more examples in order to truly understand what he was getting at. Jesus used parables -- and look where it got him!
