Review: Red Dragon

Red Dragon Red Dragon by Thomas Harris
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read the Silence of the Lambs several times during my teens and I have fond memories of it. I have also seen most of the Hannibal films and recently started the TV show on Netflix. I really like Dr. Lecter as a character so I decided to give the book a chance. It was a really great decision and the writing hooked me on from the very beginning. It was fortunate that I started the book close to the weekend and I managed to dedicate a Saturday to read it in almost one sitting. It was a great experience. This is truly a classic piece of the genre and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone.

Review: The Silence of the Lambs

The Silence of the Lambs by Thomas Harris My rating: 5 of 5 stars I've read this book like 3 times when I was a teenager, but apart from the main plot I only remembered that I loved it very much. I think I didn't even know at that time that this was the part of a series. Now though I intend to read the whole series in the "correct" order so after finishing Red Dragon, I re-read Silence of the Lambs as well. Even though some memories came back during reading it was still a very exciting and enjoyable experience. Thriller and horror and not my main go-to genre, but I think Hannibal Lecter is one of the best villains of all time. I totally recommend it to anyone, even if not having read Red Dragon. So far, this is the best part of the series for me. View all my reviews
