This is the second book in True Crime Explicit series that I have read. Leonarda Cianciulli is not your average Italian girl, she is rebellious and stubborn. Going against tradition, she picks her own husband and then believes her own mother cursed her for not marrying someone selected for her. Misfortune befalls her as she is sent to jail, an earthquake destroys her home, and after seventeen pregnancies has only four children who reach adulthood. Giuseppe, her oldest son and her favorite child, tells his mother that he thinks he will join the army. She goes nuts and decides she must make human sacrifices to keep her son alive. After inviting women to her shop, the axe comes out, and she starts using parts for soaps and cakes. A relative notices her sister in law has disappeared and Leonarda is caught and goes to jail. Her killing career is a short one. Moral of the story, watch what you eat! ![]() ![]() These days, while I’m a rather voracious reviewer of nonfiction Christian books, being a Christian woman, I’m also a Christian blogger and author. Yet, I can’t resist allowing myself to engage in reading and reviewing books dealing with the gene of True Crimes as I did when my old secular self. Being a Christian woman, I’m more fascinated than ever as to whys anyone would commit such heinous acts, especially those who are women. I find it imaginable how a single woman could have perpetrated such an evil act of murdering individuals and turning their corpses into soaps and cakes. The individual here is Leonarda Cianciulli. In this outing, True Crime author Genoveva Ortiz does a superb job of giving her readers a detailed accounting of what brought about this murderer’s acts of depravity without a sign of remorse. In the description for this book, we’re told of suicide attempts, claiming her mother cursed her, miscarriages, and losing ten of her fourteen children; Leonarda’s life wasn’t easy. Protecting her four surviving children became something of an obsession for the woman. Perhaps tragedy loosened her grip on reality, or the fear of losing her oldest to war caused her to experience a mental break. By giving her readers, like me, a detailed expose of what might have caused the murderous acts of Leonarda Cianciulli and giving them a better understanding of the origins of such acts; I’ve given Ms. Ortiz 5 STARS for her endeavor here. ![]() I received an ebook copy of this title through LibraryThing in exchange for a review nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
