Joe's Reviews > The Stranger Beside Me: Ted Bundy: The Shocking Inside Story

This book is fantastic, Ann Rule is brilliant. I always heard of Ted Bundy and the crimes he committed. I had already read a book by Ann Rule and I liked her style of writing. I was surprised to read in this book that she knew Ted personally, but he was a different person before he was known as a serial killer. He was slick, he managed to escape from the law twice. He knew how to engage with his victims well. And they never suspected he was a monster. I remember hearing about his execution in the news. He became an idol to other serial killers and still remains famous after his death. Ann Rule did great work on research and following the timeline of Ted's life. The book is long but engaging to read, I went through it in 5 days. I Recommend it if you want to read about Ted Bundy.
