  Perhaps not quite as compelling as the first novel, but still immensely enjoyable. And the scene with Rita -- you know the one -- is worth the price of the book by itself.

  Even better than Darkly Dreaming Dexter, if that's possible. Hilarious dark humor.

  Dearly Devoted Dexter

  Dexter has simply become my favorite sociopath. This installment in the Dexter saga has much more suspense and action than the first book while still retaining Dexter's trademark dark humor and razor-sharp irony.

  This one is not for the faint of heart...the bad guy in this installment is a bit more gruesome. But it makes for a compelling story that's for sure!

  I loved the first book in this series (Darkly Dreaming Dexter) and I loved this one just as much. For a serial killer, I thought Dexter was a pretty great guy but this book is a lot darker and now I know I sure wouldn't want this guy living in my neighborhood.
