Her Uncle teaches at a local college, as well as consults with the local law enforcement on violent crimes. Most of the time when I read the book, I was either bored or falling asleep. I swear, I had a hard time reading this book. The feeling I get when I read my textbook is mutual to the feeling I felt while reading it. B O R E D. and I laughed once while reading it and that's it. I didn't laugh anymore and the story bored me. I had no interest in reading it. Oh and I skimmed reading this book, because I just didn't want to spend more days to read it. I'd rather read something else than reading it. But, I admit the ending was good. Honestly, it was even better than the whole story. Or maybe I felt this way because I was relieved that I finally finished reading it? what i didnt expect to enjoy so thoroughly were the characters. i really appreciate what audrey roses character stands for - i love the idea of women making their own place in a society that dictates how to behave, what to wear, how to speak, etc. i really like that she always acts upon her curiosity, even when it is perceived as unladylike. yeah so ,, this was incredibly disappointing for me and everyone should just go watch the buzzfeed unsolved episode instead BECAUSE SHANE AND RYAN NEVER LET ME DOWN LIKE THIS BOOK DID.

Dear Wadsworth. Your association with me is growing more beneficial by the hour. Your intelligence is quite… attractive,” Thomas said, raising his brows suggestively and taking in my newly plaited hair. “Let’s have some wine and dance inappropriately.

A deranged man, and seemingly a very clever person, who remained undetected leaving a case that was never solved. This has led to many conspiracy theories, points of views, challenges from the greatest criminal minds, however, none of them have successfully solved the case. I stole a glance at him, but his gaze was fixed hungrily on the corpse. At times the darkness in his eyes terrified me more than the dead we butchered.” I was determined to be both pretty and fierce, as Mother had said I could be. Just because I was interested in a man's job didn't mean I had to give up being girly. Who defined those roles anyhow?”

How to Vote

I don’t have much to say beyond that category title, really. How is this so bad? There is no chemistry. There is no slow burn, or rooting for the characters, or any real hate-to-love outside of some surface-level attempts at cashing in on America’s favorite trope. The characters spend the whole time being separately insufferable and at occasional moments coming together to combine their insufferableness into one insufferable mountain of insufferability.

Michael (2002), The Thames Torso Murders of Victorian London, Jefferson, North Carolina: McFarland & Company, ISBN 978-0-7864-1348-5 Audrey Rose took some time to grow on me. Her constant “I don’t like you but I tolerate you” behavior toward Thomas, while also spending almost 24 hours a day with him got annoying at some point. I have to say though that I really like that she is headstrong and opinionated, even if it felt almost too modern for London’s Victorian time sometimes.

On a smaller note: The dialogue definitely annoyed me and some things were obviously not researched properly which was annoying. He’s annoying and omnipresent and condescending and mean and nonsensical. I don’t get why Audrey Rose likes him, and I especially don’t understand why he likes her.Another Horrible Tragedy in Whitechapel". casebook.org. 2 April 2004.

I listened to the audiobook, which was awesome (I've already started the 2nd one). Despite the fact that I went the audiobook route, I still looked at the photos scattered throughout the story. They really enhanced the reading experience, making it feel like I was gathering bits of evidence alongside Audrey Rose as the story goes on.

I'm not going to hash out everything here, because I'm clearly in the minority, and also because you can read all of my similar thoughts on Jamieson's review HERE. All the circumstances surrounding the murders lead me to form the opinion that the women must have been lying down when murdered and in every case the throat was first cut. [76] Louhelainen found the mitochondrial DNA taken from the shawl matched that taken from Karen Miller, a direct descendant of Eddowes, as well as a female descendant of Kosminski’s sister, Matilda, who provided swabs of mitochondrial DNA from the inside of her mouth. I just loved Thomas unapologetic and unashamed flirting with Audrey Rose! *lol* There’s a man that knows what he wants and I’m sure she captured his interest way earlier than we see in the book. In fact I’m pretty certain that she’s been on his radar for months already and the fact that he instantly knew who she was and worked with her uncle for quite a while indicates that this was no instalove! At least not for him, which was truly refreshing. Also did anyone else die when his composure finally crumpled and we got to see the real Thomas that’s hiding behind his calculating mind?! Thomas totally losing his mind because he was afraid someone would harm Audrey Rose was one of the best things about this book. <333 Yes, it’s tropey, yes it’s stereotypical but I still loved it! *lol* Can’t help it but I’m weak for such boys. XD Plus their easy banter was so amusing to read. I might have known that those two would end up together from the very moment they met but it was still fun to watch it unfold and I’m looking forward to more of those moments and scenes. Thomas Cresswell ya’ll. That's it, that's all I have to say. I'm speechless. He is perfect. and he's fictional absolutely ridiculousThe romance absolutely did not do it for me in this book. Is it just me, or is anyone else getting sooo bored of a book throwing a male and female character in the same room, and you can practically hear the author throwing their hands up in the air and saying "he was a boy, she was a girl, can I make it anymore obvious?"

The dialogues are okay but not memorable and a tad bit too long . I liked what I was reading when I was reading it, but it didn't leave me stunned, to be precise.
