The premise for author Katherine Ewell’s Dear Killer sounded interesting and I went into the novel not quite sure what to expect. The idea of having a character who is literally the perfect killer who can get away with any murder she commits sounded pretty awesome. The fact that it’s just a tiny tee...
Dear Killer is not a book that would be enjoyed by everyone. I even have a feeling that a significant amount of readers will hate and burn it. For starters, the main character of this book is not someone that you can really call a “heroine.” Kit Ward is not the girl who will save the day. On the con...

**MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD**3.5/5OVERALL IMPRESSION: I'm intrigued by the plot. It's a really strange and twisted situation, which makes for good reading in my eyes.I did not like the ending at all.

(I got an ARC of this book courtesy of Edelweiss. The book being published by now, a few things may have changed, compared to the version I read.)I can't say I hated this novel, but it didn't leave me with a strong impression either. I expected more darkness from Kit, more moral ambiguity; instead, ...
“The Perfect Killer is based in Chelsea and is a student,” I said loudly. “You...didn’t know that,” I realized with a touch of despair. I had said too much. I only wanted to prove my cleverness to him, seemingly using information that was public property. But instead I had given him new clues that c...
See more of my reviews on The YA Kitten! Because I am so angry, I need to share this one early. Many implied spoilers for Dear Killer are within. Not lightly implied either. Read even half-attentively and you will see spoilers. How on earth I went from enjoying the last 90 pages of the adorable,...
