Interpretation Supposing Books Heart Full of Lies

An idyllic Hawaiian wedding held the promise of a wonderful future for handsome, athletic Chris Northon, an airline pilot, a confirmed bachelor-turned-devoted family man; and Liysa, an acclaimed surf photographer, loving mother, and aspiring Hollywood screenwriter. But few, including Chris, had seen Liysa's other side -- her controlling behavior and dark moods, her insatiable hunger for money and property. And no one anticipated the fatal outcome of a family camping trip in an Oregon forest. Liysa soon revealed herself as a victim of domestic abuse that culminated at the campsite, where she shot Chris in self-defense. But crime scene evidence led detectives to wonder if Liysa was a killer, not a victim. Her controversial trial stunned all who thought they knew her. A lifetime of sociopathic manipulations and lies had been expertly hidden behind her façade of perfection -- as was her rage to destroy any obstacle to her ultimate happiness, even if it was the man she vowed to love forever.

This is the second Ann Rule book that I've read, and remain impressed with the massive amount of work and research that goes into such a project. As the story of Liysa Northon, currently in prison for killing her husband Chris, is widely available, I'm not going to spend any time summarizing it. I have read some reviews that state that the language and context in this book is repetitive. While in one sense that is true, the list of people involved in this story is massive -- there are several

This book proved to me that I set a very high bar for Ann Rule, who is my favorite true crime author. Written by anyone else, it would probably be a good enough book. But "good enough" just doesn't cut it, in my opinion, when it comes to Ms. Rule. Maybe I just didn't connect to the persons in this book but I didn't feel invested in the story at all. I read the book in its entirety but more so out of dedication to Ms. Rule than the merits of the book. Definitely her weakest true crime effort.

When I finished reading Blood Meridian, I started Heart Full of Lies. Talk about whiplash! Although this is my first Ann Rule book, I did know that I was embarking on something completely different than Cormac McCarthy. Like Cormac, Ann Rule took me into the lives of a strange assortment of people but with Ann it was like a voyeuristic vacation whereas Cormacs scenery and characters were more like Apocalypse Now. I needed a break from books that require brain power to something more obvious. And

Dear Ann Rule, if you want a simple story of write and wrong, then pick a simple story in which there is a clear victim and a clear perpetrator. If you choose to write about a complex case, then have enough respect for the intelligence and analytical thinking skills of your readers to represent it as such. We are savvy enough to understand that even if both individuals are terrible people, it's not ok to kill someone, even if they have been cruel to you. Your message to the reader should have

I liked several of Ann Rule books very much, but this one is boring. There's way too much biographical and geographical detail, long before you get to what happened. By p.70 the psychopathology is obvious and repetitious. There's no suspense.

When I want to take a break from larger tomes, I grab an Ann Rule true crime book and am seldom disappointed. I have to say, however, that this is not one of her best and I don't know if it is because the story doesn't have a lot of substance or that the author was having a bad day. It just doesn't quite measure up to some of her other best sellers.A popular commercial pilot is found dead while on a camping trip.....shot through the head while in his sleeping bag. He was accompanied by his wife

I have always enjoyed Ann Rule books. This book I felt like went a little slow.
