Personal Response A Kiss before Dying Firstly, I need to read this novel in the class and I start to read it with the lukewarmness because it is pretty thick book. When I read it for four to five pages of book, I feel it is a bit fun. So, I continue read it all. In the story, I really sympathize Dorothy and the baby because they are killed pitifully. They didn’t do anything wrong, especially the baby; the baby does nothing.In my understanding, Marion is really clever; she investigates and tries to find the truth and she got it at the final. Bud is heartless, he kills the innocent. I strongly like this writing style of this novel: it is divided in many parts many chapters. The undersurface read only one or two chapters and delay and do other thing and I can back to read again. The thrillers make me fun and panic-stricken sometimes. I feel pity for the Kingships. The Kingships daughters were killed. And Bud deserves travel into the smelter because he did many really lamentable things to other.
