Reading the original made me appreciate the graphic novel even more. They really did a great job with it.

Anyway, this was a good read, and apparently I’m a sucker for Southern accents, or something. Having recently been to Fort Worth myself added to the flavor, too. The ending felt a bit abrupt, and maybe too forced, but it didn’t ruin the whole thing for me. I guess I wouldn’t have preferred it to be too drawn out either.

I recommend this if you like murder mysteries, or Southern accents, or psychology, or twisted people, or entertainment... Near the end of the book, after the story’s done, there’s a blurb which includes the epithet “dimestore Dostoevsky,” which, now that I think about it, seems appropriate.
