Just finished it about 2 weeks ago. What a terrifying and enthralling read. For me it was the constant teasing between how psychopathic Perry and Dick were and how normal their ambitions could be at the same time. I’m still having trouble figuring out who the worse of the two is, though I’m sure the general consensus would be Perry based on his actual actions. I would lean toward Dick. He’s manipulative, calculating and really had no environmental reason to explain his behavior. A thoroughbred monster.
