I really enjoyed reading Women Who Kill—and because this is an illustration focused blog, after all—loved the accompanying illustrations. Created in a limited color palette, they capture the essence of the women’s crimes. This is a great book if you’re a true crime fan or know someone who is.—BrownPaperBag
Sarah Tanat-Jones’ art has a sketchy, airy immediacy to its pages, revealing a keen and sharpened eye to design that has the colours floating and stabbing in washed out red, grey/blue and white. They have an iconic edge that tells the story really well as you turn from story to story.—DowntheTubes
It’s a hardback book with a cover that nods at the direct graphic approach used by the great Sue Coe. The end papers are unusual as they cover three pages instead of two, each depicting the tools of killing against a red background – there will be blood! The illustrations are seductive and the women featured seem elevated by virtue of their destructive force—TheAOI
