Denese S. (denese) reviewed Waste Land : The Savage Odyssey of Charles Starkweather and Caril Ann Fugate on
This was a read for the book club I belong to. I enjoyed learning about Starkweather and Fugate because I am from Nebraska, however it was a difficult book for me to get through. I felt that it was more of a book that I would get assigned to read from a Psychology Professor. Twenty years ago I thrived on reading this type of book, but now it just isn't my cup of tea. My favorite part was not necessarily reading the book, but asking people (my parents & etc.) if they remember Charlie and Caril Ann and how it effected their lives. One person said that their father would sit by the front door with a loaded shotgun. Interesting.....
