5.0 out of 5 stars Murderous mind is a great book. I highly recommend it!

Another good book from Ryan. I never heard of any of these killers, and it was interesting how and why for each of them. I can’t believe their reasons for their crimes. Ryan is absolutely amazing in his research for each of these monster’s crimes. Great read that I couldn’t put down. I have all of Ryan’s books and will continue to read them.

Another well done crime book by Ryan Becker! It was very interesting to read about people who didn't attract a lot of headlines. He does a good job getting into the psychology of the killers. The only people I had really known about that were featured in the book were the Kimes mother and son duo. I also like the empathy the author expresses in trying to understand why these people did what they did. He truly attempts to understand the life factors that influenced the murderers that he writes about. What makes them cross that line? Bad childhoods, greed? Great job in capturing the reader's interest.

The topics are good. Nothing exciting about the writing style. Lots of SPELLING errors. Easy read. I like a little more bite to my reading material. A few more three syllable words maybe. I'll read the series because I've read everything by my favorite author and am not ready to jump into something with some character yet. Candy cane for the brain is a what I need in my reading material right now, this is good for that.

These were some seriously twisted people. They did horrible things for their own selfish good. They all thought they got away with it. I'm glad that Justice prevailed

Every murder is important. It makes a significant impact on the lives of all those left behind, the police, the friends and family, and the killers friends and family as well. Not all cases make the headlines, but they all deserve our study and consideration - and this simple series seems to be set to make them available to us for that purpose.

This first selection of stories are well researched and well written. They lead you to an almost inevitable conclusion that there is a serious problem here in the U.S. and that is the availability of weapons to people who are mentally ill. We also have an equally serious problem in getting people who are mentally ill, who have reached out and asked for help, or done things that are clear indications of a need for help the help they so desperately need. How ridiculous is it, when a man is asked to leave the armed services because of mental issues can still go buy a gun without any problem? Or when someone who has called the police to complain about the people talking in his head and sending him messages through his microwave - is that someone you want buying a gun? Well, he can buy one legally right now.

Ryan Becker's writing is showing steady improvement. You have to respect an indie who makes the effort to learn and improve his craft. He isn't Ann Rule yet - but in time I think we just might get to watch the birth of a star in the true crime genre.

Another great true crime anthology from Ryan Becker. This time there were 6 different stories, each of them different than the rest. I found each one of them to be well written and well researched. He gave good backgrounds - not too much information to make you bored, but enough to understand the killer in the story. I had heard of a couple of these, but not all, and I loved that. He gave us stories that we had not heard about before. I really liked this book, just as I have enjoyed all of his books. I highly recommend it!

The concept is good, but there’s nothing new in these retelling. A decent effort though.
