Ingen Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog.  IreneCole | Jul 27, 2022 |   This book just didn't work for me at all though the blurb makes it sound really good as it has lots of killing with slice and dice action, but the story reads like a journal. The story centers around a family of killers which consists of a mother and father with their two sons. One of the sons is telling the story of what happened with his family being killers and what he has done himself as a killer. But most of the story is told through his thoughts and sometimes there is confusion within the storyline (at least for me) with the son's thought processes as it bounces around. I don't like staying confused within a story and I thought it would get better as it went along, but I tried up to near 48% and that is long enough for me as normally if I am not feeling anything by the 30% mark I will usually put the book down. Also since this is a "dnf" I won't be rating the review as I don't usually rate books I don't finish. Some people might like this type of story and how it is presented, but it is just not for me. Note: I thought I would put a "note" on this review for readers. This book says I read it 4 times when in fact I did not. Goodreads has three different books by this author combined as one edition. When I click on "other editions" three other books by this author come up under the "other editions" tab. Maybe a Goodreads tech will see this review and fix the problem, but I thought I would point it out so other readers would know if they decide to pick up this book to read. When I went to do my review I had four date starts and date finish, but there is no way to remove the other dates as it does not give that option, so I am stuck with it I suppose.

Meet the Cunninghams . . . A family bound by evil and the blood they have spilled. Meet Caleb Samael Cunningham, a diabolical serial-killer with an inherited psychopathology, passed down via a blood-soaked genealogy. Caleb is a disturbed young man whose violent father is a suspected serial killer and mother, an insane alcoholic. After his Father's suicide, Cunningham's disturbing fantasy-life becomes reality, as he begins his killing spree in earnest. His identical twin brother Charlie is to be released from an asylum and all hell is about to break loose, when the brothers combine their deviant talents. "Dark and deeply disturbing." - Jonathan Nasaw, author of Fear Itself and The Girls He Adored. "Blood Related is a nasty but nuanced take on the serial killer genre. Cook's bruising tale of twin psychopaths who are as cold as mortuary slabs is not for the weak-kneed." - Laird Barron, author of Occultation and The Imago Sequence. "A thought-provoking thriller." - Guy N Smith, author of Night of The Crabs and Deadbeat. "Great - Riveting - Amazing - take your pick. I just read William Cook's Blood Related for the second time. Both readings were followed with one thought, Wow. A horrific crime-filled tale of terror that makes us understand why we lock our doors at night, Blood Related is by far the best read I've experienced in years." - John Paul Allen, author of Monkey Love and Gifted Trust "Blood Related is a terrifying psychological thriller. William Cook is an author to watch." - Mark Edward Hall, author of The Lost Village and The Holocaust Opera. "William Cook makes serial killer fiction exciting again Expert narrative, bursting with flare, originality, and enough passion and brutality that even a real-life serial killer will love this book . . . and it's twisted and complex enough to make you question your own sanity after the first intense read." - Nicholas Grabowsky, best-selling author of Halloween IV and Everborn.

Charlie and Caleb Cunningham are bad apples that didn't fall far from their twisted family tree. Like their daddy and his daddy before him. Fans of horror and thrillers alike should enjoy this well written and gory tale, I was up all night reading this one.
Be warned it is quite graphic!
I received a complimentary copy for review. (
