The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair that Changed America by Erik LarsonMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
I liked the book, but was distracted by the switching between the two stories. I think the story of the fair would have been interesting by itself, but every time the book went from the gory psychopath's story to the whining landscape architect's story, I lost interest and just wanted to hear about the psychopath's. It was almost as if the author wanted to write about the fair, but wasn't sure if he could sell it without the salacious aspects of the murders.
