My Friend Dahmer by Derf Backderf
4.0
I can’t say it enough: the art is amazing. The book was so interesting, I breezed through it in two sittings. The only comment I have is that I think it could have been a bit more introspective on Derf’s part—as it turns out, Dahmer wasn’t exactly his friend as much as he was a form of entertainment for Derf and his friends. I would have appreciated a bit more of Derf’s own thoughts and feelings about Dahmer—does he regret any of his encounters with Jeff or feel like he could have been there for him or anything like that? But that being absent from the book doesn’t really take away from it at all—it’s still SUCH a great book!
