In Cold Blood. The novel sets itself apart in that it explores not only the murder and the clues itself, but twists true crime so that the reader will sympathize with the murderers,

In the opening chapter the genre of murder mystery is made clear through truncated sentences designed to create tension, "It was 7 minutes after midnight". However, when it is revealed that the murder victim is a Mrs. Shears' dog, the
Many people also feel that this book is irrelevant to student’s lives. However, kids should learn what life would be like for kids at their age in a different time period. Like what was stated before, in a history class, when we learn about the history, we learn about the straight facts, not as much of the personal lives of people living in that time. Since the novel is showing the personal recollections of one boy in the time period, students can identify the similarities between the two lessons.

Additionally, the author portrays many flashbacks that the main characters are having as their death inches closer.
