Finished the first of three books the Showtime series is based off of last night, and in one word: Excellent. The ending in the book has some serious differences than the ending of Season 1, but I can appreciate both forms of media separately. The wry humor, the self-awareness, and the dread Dexter faces when confronting old memories are mixed with a suspenseful plot. Loved it.
After reading the book and watching Seasons 1-3 on Showtime, I have a better appreciation for Michael C. Hall as Dexter. He does a great job nailing the contradictions of Dexter and still keeps me wanting to watch to see what happens next.
I've already delved into the second book, Dearly Devoted Dexter and have the third one, Dexter in the Dark on my waitlist at the library.
