I enjoy murder mysteries very much. I love trying to solve the clues and figure out who the murderer is. Documentaries on murder mysteries are also interesting. I don't like it when they draw the info out and then in the end, they don't present you with the answer. The mystery is left unsolved.
Patricia Cornwell is a wonderful murder mystery author.

The fact that it is usually too dark gets to me. Some murder mystery books are not too dark and I like those, however, the documentaries are always too dark. I don't like that at all.

I used to be so obsessed with murder mysteries but what I found upsetting were the unsolved ones and those get to me . I decided it was time to stop. The documentaries keep me glued till the end because, I want to see that the offenders are caught/punished.

I like listening or watching murder mysteries but don’t enjoy reading them.

I love a good murder mystery. Agatha Christie and Mary Higgins Clark do them very well.
