BAD PEOPLE - RED Expansion Pack (100 NEW Question Cards) - The Game You Probably Shouldn't Play

Product Information

It does this great thing where you’re introduced to a killer early on, leading you into a false sense of “I know what to expect”. But you don’t. You really don’t. Multiple twists I didn’t see coming, including a mind-blowing ending. Oh and it’s one of those stories where when things are going good for too long you’re waiting with bated breath for the other shoe to drop Bad People” is written well with a lot of twists and turns. The book gave me “Silence of the Lambs” and “Seven” vibes.

I am now referring to the evacuation of the Jews, the extermination of the Jewish people. It's one of those things that is easily said: 'The Jewish people are being exterminated', says every party member, 'this is very obvious, it's in our program, elimination of the Jews, extermination, we're doing it, hah, a small matter.' And then they turn up, the upstanding 80 million Germans, and each one has his decent Jew. They say the others are all swines, but this particular one is a splendid Jew. But none has observed it, endured it. Most of you here know what it means when 100 corpses lie next to each other, when there are 500 or when there are 1,000. To have endured this and at the same time to have remained a decent person — with exceptions due to human weaknesses — has made us tough, and is a glorious chapter that has not and will not be spoken of. Because we know how difficult it would be for us if we still had Jews as secret saboteurs, agitators and rabble-rousers in every city, what with the bombings, with the burden and with the hardships of the war. If the Jews were still part of the German nation, we would most likely arrive now at the state we were at in 1916 and 17 [...]" There is a larger philosophical debate about whether humans in their natural uncivilized state are innately “bad” or “good,” often referred to as “Hobbes” vs. “Rousseau” views. Sapolsky helps us see why, unsurprisingly, it’s “a mixture of both.” 19, 20 Wallwork tells the story in two narratives: Detective Nolan and the killer. The reader experiences chapters about the killer. Then the chapters shift to police procedurals and interviews. There were chapters devoted to Detective Nolan interviewing different people. The writing was done so well that it was easy to follow shifts in the storyline. Even if you’ve done some things that aren’t great, you’re still worthy of love and forgiveness. You may have a hard time accepting this from others until you can grant it to yourself. Identify your values and live accordingly You might do things others consider bad out of necessity. For example, many people lie, cheat, or steal on occasion. They may feel bad about doing it, but they may also feel it’s the only option available. Reasons don’t always justify theft or other crimes, but they can help put them into context.I sprinkle of Karin Slaughter style of writing a dash of The Silence of the Lamb (the movie because I haven’t read the books yet) and a lot of it just the talented twisted of one of the GOOD PEOPLE Craig Wallwork. I am so exited to read the sequel Labyrinth Of The Dolls when it comes out September 15. I totally enjoyed the ride and here are some of the things I enjoyed Moshagen M, et al. (n.d.). The dark factor of personality: A theory of the common core of dark personality traits. When I thought I knew what was happening earlier on in the story, this one kept me guessing. I loved that it kept me on my toes as a reader, and I appreciated the dark and moody vibe that I felt throughout this book. It’s very much a unique story, but as I watched it play out in my mind, it reminded me of how I felt watching some favorite crime thrillers on television (Season One of True Detective came to mind, as did The Killing). There are some supernatural and religious/cultish themes in this story, and I really enjoyed that aspect as well. A man breaks into Jennifer Thompson’s apartment, severs her phone wires and rapes her. Jennifer studies his face, hoping to remember enough details so that she can identify him later.

There is also a distinct British-ness to the proceedings; it’s all very Yorkshire indeed, which I love. I’m not from the exact area of the country this story is set in, but I’ve been there often enough to pretty confidently say that Bad People feels authentic – it captures the essence and way of life of that area of England. Again, this helps lend the story plausibility, and makes the events all the more chilling. This novel was wildly unsettling and I love feeling unsettled. I don't think I'll ever get a few of the scenes out of my head. Over the past three years, the quiet Yorkshire village of Stormer Hill has lost three of its children. No bodies were ever discovered. No evidence found. No witnesses. Their upbringing or culture has not taught them that certain behaviors are inappropriate in certain contexts.We struggle to understand how these people went home at night and tenderly kissed and played with their children, loved their dogs, appreciated classical music and read philosophy. As Michael Berenbaum, project director of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum puts it: “The killers were civilized men and women of an advanced culture. They were both ordinary and extraordinary, a cross section of the men and women of Germany, its allies, and their collaborators as well as the best and the brightest.” [Michael Berenbaum, The World Must Know: The History of the Holocaust as Told in the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum (Boston: Little, Brown, 1993), p.220] The Ghost stepped forward, courting that fragile light to give shape to its face. Gram watched gloom shift from its hollowed cheeks and eyes, and then gather at the corners of a sinister smile"
