Blind Love : The True Story of the Texas Cadet Murders

On facebook someone mentioned a book called The Cadet Murder case by AW Gray. The title vaguely sounded familiar so I looked it up and discovered i was right. I had read a book about the so called cadet murder but searching my shelves on Goodreads I did not get any result. So I went back to bookcrossing where I registered my books before GR and bingo. I had read it.

This is my what childish review. Bare with me please :)

7 out of 10

Well I read this book pretty quick and it left me a bit disappointed.
It has never happened to me before that the writer does not even tell what punishment the criminals received so I was surprised.
You read and read, From the beginning when the name Diana Zimona was mentioned show more it sounded so familiar. I think I saw a documentary on discovery Channel about this case and I remember watching her testify at the trial. To bad I do not remember the outcome but after reading this book I still feel she is the one who started all this, because she was so jealous. I also believe her parents did know about it, that she confessed it to them and they did nothing but pray.


I was very pleased the book was about this story because I did not know that when I accepted but the book let me down though.

The writer continually repeats himself. I also agree with Scram about the "Gee, he was such a nice guy and Gee she was so determined to succeed stuff"

I think this book was written mainly to earn some quick money ,and it was not the main goal to write a good book.

It was a quick read though but a big disappointment to the end. I think it was all hear say this writer has based this book on.

Anyway I am happy to have been able to read it my friends
I will give this book a 7 only because it is a very interesting story show less

This was good. It told all about the crime. It was published before the trial, so you do not know how this was resolved from the book.
