West Virginia, 1966. For thirteen months the town of Point Pleasant is gripped by a real-life nightmare that culminates in a tragedy that makes headlines around the world. Strange occurrences and sightings, including a bizarre winged apparition that becomes known as the Mothman, trouble this ordinary American community. And journalist John Keel, arriving to investigate the freakish events, soon finds himself an integral part of an eerie and unfathomable mystery.

Don't bother with this book
Revisado: 03-11-21
I always heard this was THE book to read about Mothman and the Silver Bridge collapse. I knew it wasn't only about that; I'd heard it's a collection of stories about a variety of paranormal events. I think a more accurate description is the Mothman Prophecies is about John Keel's grand unified theory of everything paranormal (it's all extra dimensional beings who've always been here) and how clever Keel is for understanding it and how foolish everyone else is for believing in UFOs or angels or Bigfoot or whatever. Things are strung together in a pretty disjointed, rambling fashion, but the main point he comes back to is that other people misinterpret things because they have ~~beliefs~~. Then he presents his own conjectures as ~~facts~~.

She is the perfect assassin. A Russian orphan, saved from the death penalty for the brutal revenge she took on her gangster father's killers. Ruthlessly trained. Given a new life. New names, new faces - whichever fits. Her paymasters call themselves The Twelve. But she knows nothing of them. Konstantin is the man who saved her and the one she answers to. She is Villanelle. Without conscience. Without guilt. Without weakness. Eve Polastri is the woman who hunts her. MI5, until one error of judgment costs her everything.

Not my cup of tea
Revisado: 03-20-20
I love the show Killing Eve, so I decided to try the books it's based on. It's not bad, but it's not my thing. Probably great if you're already into espionage books, but if you're just coming from the show, it doesn't really have the same feel.

From the Western collectors whose demand for shrunken heads spurred massacres to Second World War soldiers who sent the remains of the Japanese home to their girlfriends, from Madame Tussaud modeling the guillotined head of Robespierre to Damien Hirst photographing decapitated heads in city morgues, from grave-robbing phrenologists to skull-obsessed scientists, anthopologist Frances Larson here explores our macabre fixation with severed heads.

Interesting, but repetitive

Interesting, but pretty repetitive. Probably better to read it in bits than listen to it.
