"thinking about murder all the time seems to be very tiring.
Really interesting book, but not for those faint of heart. It's not graphic as far as detailing the actual deaths, more disturbing as it details the planning of the murders and what that entailed. Also a bit disturbing when detailing his indecision on whether what he's doing is right, wrong, and he simply doesn't seem to care to make the choice.
For anyone that had nightmares with The Kite Runner, expect nightmares with this one as well."
"An interesting insight into Ireland's "Troubles" in the early 70's. I had to wikipedia some aspects, but I learned a lot. Recommend listening to a lot of The Cranberries and U2 post-read."
"I hated this book. First of all, it was written by an author commissioned to pen the story of an ex-IRA man. The writing was not the best and the story itself was not extremely gripping. This is definitely not one of the best memoirs to have come out of the Troubles. But, it was effective enough to where Collins was murdered 2 years after its publication."
