About this listen

After killer Shelia Eddy pled guilty to first-degree murder and was sentenced to life in prison and Rachel Shoaf was sentenced to thirty years for second-degree murder, family, friends, investigators, and other key sources reveal the facts you would have learned if the case had gone to trial.

Including specific details drawn from Rachel's confession, Pretty Little Killers looks at the crime through the eyes of the victim and killers, providing intimate testimony from the pages of Rachel's personal journal, Skylar's diary and school papers, and court records. Daleen Berry and Geoffrey C. Fuller examine all this, including previously unreported details about Rachel and Shelia's rumored lesbian relationship, and explain why more than one investigator believes that Skylar's murder was a thrill kill. Most important, Pretty Little Killers provides a satisfying answer to Skylar's final question: "Why?"

Dragged on a bit. A lot of info did not add to the story and made it longer than it needed to be. All three main girls in the book, including the victim sadly, were actually not very nice people most of the time.

Tedious at times.

For me it just dragged on and on about the details of these girls friendships.. way too much detail.. I would listen for a while until I was overcome with boredom then start a different book.. I ended up listening to 7 other books and an entire podcast series just to avoid this book.. I am so glad it's done and I never have to listen to it again!

Struggled to stay interested

The voice in this story is very hard to listen to... especially when the narrator puts on a little toddler voice etc it was not something I had the patience to listen to.

I couldn't finish listening to this story!!!
