This book was not what I thought it would be. It was incredibly well researched and had a ton of information in it, but I thought it would have a little more narrative than it did. Reading through all of the testimony, and the document was really interesting to me, and this would be definitely a book that I will go back to and look at time and again. I feel like I couldn’t really soak everything and on the first read. I really liked the with the author put in so many details about the victims, giving them more life than what we typically see in serial killer stories. They were actual people and not just victims and they deserved that recognition

I distinctly remember this case and here in Ted Bundy's Murderous Mysteries, the author does a great job in detailing the victims and helping us understand who they were.

It provides new, revealing, and never-before-published interviews with those close to Bundy, close to his victims, and a potential victim who barely escaped his clutches.

A riveting story, well done!

DNF

I did not read this book and I know longer have any interest in reading it. This was during the beginning of my NetGalley “everything looks great so I am going to request it without looking into the book. I have definitely become more selective in choosing what books I want to request and read.

Ted Bundy is so infamous and this book is riveting. It was interesting to get a behind the scenes look at his victims. Very eye opening!

I really liked this series of books. The author does a great job of humanizing the victims. It makes me happy to see them remembers for who they were and not just unnamed victims

This book had issues with its “flow” slightly choppy and off at some points, but all and all enjoyable in the creepiest way possible! It was informative and entertaining reading about the dark and deadly Ted Bundy. This book brings into the mind and actions of the killer and that was what I was hoping for when I requested it!

Ted Bundy’s Murderous Mysteries is a deep-dive into the archival record of the America’s most notorious serial killer. It’s a veritable goldmine of information on Bundy, his victims, and this very voluminous case.
I didn’t read the other books the author had released about Ted Bundy, but his intro explains the reasoning behind a third book and that the others aren’t necessary, which made me feel a bit better about it. This book was a laid out as if one was allowed access to all of the files collected by the authorities. I found it very interesting considering how much I’ve watched and heard about Ted Bundy. I really liked it and highly recommend.
**I voluntarily read and reviewed this book

This is the third book in a series by Kevin Sullivan on Ted Bundy, and I had not previously read the first two. I know that I will be going back and reading them now though! I have always been fascinated by Bundy, and very much afraid because I will say what I always say, I completely think this could still happen now. As a girl I am taught to be polite and help people, and I feel that even with the knowledge we have from the past our, or my, need to help someone would outweigh the danger signals. This is a warning though, this goes into a lot of detail from Bundy's crimes, so if that is not for you, this book is not for you. This has so much more information that is not covered in other books, movies, interviews, or shows that I have seen before. This is a must read for a true crime fan. Thank you to the author, publisher, and Netgalley for the review in exchange for an honest review.

With the rise in popularity of crime shows and documentaries right now, it’s almost impossible to walk into the True Crime section of a bookstore and not be hit in the face with at least half a dozen new Bundy books. He appears to be the killer the world is focusing on right now and everyone is becoming an expert. Obviously, I have to pick up every one of these books.

I’ve read a lot of True Crime over the years so I know what I like and what doesn’t work for me. Ted Bundy’s Murderous Mysteries: The Many Victims of America’s Most Infamous Serial Killer is one of those books that falls right in the middle. It’s incredibly well done but not the type of book I would curl up with on a rainy night to enjoy. I personally prefer reading True Crime as a story rather than a text book feeding me facts. I find that a narrative is much more enjoyable and I retain the information better. This book is definitely an info dump and a hardcore one at that.

Kevin Sullivan has done years and years’ worth of research on Bundy and it shows on each and every page. There is so much that it couldn’t be contained in one book, which I didn’t realize until I began reading. Ted Bundy’s Murderous Mysteries is actually the fourth (don’t quote me on that, I may be wrong on the number) in a series of deeply investigative and informative books Sullivan has written about this killer and his crimes. From police reports to interviews that have never before been published the level of commitment and expertise the author has put forward is nothing but impressive as hell.

Whether you’re a newbie looking to fuel the fire of your obsession or a completist looking to add to your
collection, Kevin Sullivan’s Ted Bundy’s Murderous Mysteries will be a staple addition, though I do recommend picking up the set.

Many thanks to NetGalley and WildBlue Press for providing a copy of this book to read and give my own, honest opinion.

Chilling and informative, Ted Bundy’s Murderuous Mysteries gives the reader an immersive look into the victims of the prolific serial killer. I appreciated how various primary source documents and photographs were included, which adds a scarily realistic element to the book. However, I can’t get past the fact that the victims’ stories aren’t written about in chronological order. It made the book unnecessarily hard to follow and at times comprehend. True crime fans may enjoy this book.

This book sounds amazing, but at this time it just isn’t for me. I think it will be great when I am ready to come back to it!

A huge Thank You to The author, The publisher and Netgalley for providing the e-arc in exchange for a unbiased review of these works

ted bundy and his crimes seem to be quite a thing at the moment this book delves deeper and i found its insights intesting

Ted Bundy is one of the most interesting serial killers that I have ever read about. I love reading and learning new things about him.

I recommend this book to anyone who is into true crime or serial killers. This had a lot of different information and was very interesting.

Thank you to Netgalley, the publisher and the author for the opportunity to read a complimentary copy of this book in return for a review based upon my honest opinion.

I had a really hard time with this book. I did not really like the way it was written, I enjoyed reading some of the police reports and interviews and the authors notes were actually very helpful; I just found it was not really what I thought it was going to be. That being said, I did enjoy learning more about Ted Bundy and the author is very knowledgeable about this topic, I really wondered if this might be a case where I would have enjoyed an actual print book more than an e-book. And I wondered if I would have liked the book more if I had read it in that format.

Thie evil of this man never ceases to amaze me. I'm just pleased he is no longer alive to carry out more crimes. A well-written concisely written book on the monster that was Ted Bundy.

I didn't enjoy this book at all. I've read a lot of books on Ted Bundy and was excited to read this one, but it was hard to follow (maybe the ARC formatting is different from the final product?) and there were places where it seemed like the author was focusing largely on pointing out that he personally had very exclusive access to certain details or else clarifying points from previous books (which I hadn't read). There was very little new information in the book. (I also had to laugh at the disclaimer at the beginning that reviews should contain absolutely no spoilers - makes sense for a fiction book, but I'm guessing anyone who picks up a book about Ted Bundy will have at least SOME working knowledge of who Ted Bundy is and what he did!)

I read the first version of this book. A very interesting and fact-filled read about Ted Bundy. A lot of reports, interviews, autopsies, and notes about the Bundy case. There are even some pictures.

I must go back and read the first two now. Haha

I love ted bundy so much. He’s such a ridiculous human and his life was fascinating. This book was so good and full of insight. I’m so glad I read it!

For those interested in serial killers or Ted Bundy himself, this is a very informative and interesting read. The author does good research and the photos inside are clear and useful to the text. I enjoyed learning a few new things about Mr. Bundy and recommend this for those beginning to explore this genre. Of course, warnings for violence and graphic imagery.

If you’re looking for a book to introduce you to the life and crimes of one of America’s most infamous serial killers, this book isn’t it. Though it’s not clear from the blurb, the author states in the book’s introduction that this is actually the third part of a trilogy, a series doing a deep-dive into the minutiae of the Bundy case. You could pick up enough from this one to get a sense of what Bundy was doing and when, but you really need to read the earlier books or one of the (many) other books on Bundy’s crimes to get the full context and background.

What this book does is introduce to the record a few interesting snippets the author has gleaned from extensive research into the archives of law enforcement agencies. There are previously unpublished interviews with people close to Bundy and some of his victims, and an account from a credible witness who very likely had a close escape.

After all this time - it’s been more than 30 years since Ted Bundy was put to death for his crimes - there is little new to discover about the case which the numerous researchers who’ve written about it haven’t already covered, and I would say there’s nothing really here which gives any further insight into Bundy’s state of mind even though there’s information I hadn’t seen before.

The author is obviously extremely knowledgeable about the case, and indeed I’d highly recommend his The Bundy Murders: A Comprehensive History, to anyone interested in the Bundy case. Though this one is as well-written and researched as any of his other material, I would say it’s for Bundy completists, and those with only a casual interest in the case may not find it of much interest. I’ll give it four stars.
