More Forensics and Fiction: Crime Writers' Morbidly Curious Questions Expertly Answered by D.P. Lyle

3.0

Disclaimer: Technically I did not finish this book. I got about halfway through, started other things, and left it behind, but honestly that's okay, because this book is truly and primarily a reference book. It can certainly be read as a morbidly fun nonfiction guide to gore, but it's best taken in small shots or referenced as needed for mystery writers or fans of the genre who just want to know how something works or happens scientifically/medically when it comes to death and other wonderfully gruesome things. While it got a tad boring in parts, which is one of the reasons I didn't finish it, all in all this was a great and super helpful reference, and a must own for any crime writer or fan.
