My Murder
4 stars
My Murder is a fictional near-future book about five women victims of a serial killer who have been brought back to life as clones to be able to live their lives anew. This book follows the final victim Louise, coping with her own mixed feelings (both her own ongoing and remembered previous self's feelings) about her husband and child that she has been brought back into a relationship with. When she looks further into details of her own murder she finds more mystery than closure.
It's a book about coping with trauma and poking at the edges of horrific events you don't remember any of but everybody around you keenly and awkwardly does. It's also about VR and the public's obsession with serial killers and their victims, as well as the victims exploring their own feelings through VR.
Overall, this was a lot of fun. I appreciated all of the โฆ

Overall, this was a lot of fun. I appreciated all of the different ways these women coped with their new cloned circumstances, and I felt like the mystery itself was well done.
