review 1: Este é um livro que se lê mas que não fica na memória. Não me encheu as medidas nem me fez suspirar por mais. Quando faltavam umas páginas para o final do livro eu já tinha adivinhado quem era o assassino, mas não por que o tinha feito.Penso que a melhor característica deste livro é a introdução do relato do séc XIX. Um relato que (supostamente) pertence ao famoso Jack, o Estripador. O pior assassino em série de Inglaterra. E um assassino que nunca fui encontrado.É um livro mediano que serve para entreter.
review 2: 'The Art of Murder' had a pretty interesting synopsis, enough to make me pick it up and think this should be quite good. Alas, it just wasn't that good.The story itself is interesting, alternates between the contemporary killings taki... moreng place and extracts from Rippers killings back in the 1880s. Although personally, both sets of murders were completely different, so I don't know why the author decided to even use the Ripper killings.The writing was fairly bland...very basic and not particularly descriptive or emotive enough to make me feel much apart from apathy however because the plot intrigued me, I continued, it just wasn't outstandingly written.I feel in part because the writing was nothing special that this lead to very poorly developed, basic and two dimensional characters that once again, made me feel not a lot. I couldn't say I liked or disliked them. I didn't really feel much.So I won't pick any more books up by this author. Interesting plotlines but nothing else. I like my writing and characters well developed so that I really like or love a read, not just find it barely okay.Sorry Mr White, your writing isn't quite up to scratch! less
