Killer Instinct is such a good read! It’s fast paced and keeps you on your toes the entire time. After the first few paragraphs I said to myself, “S.E. Green must love shows like Criminal Minds because this could seriously be an episode on the show.” Lane, the main character, is struggling with herself throughout the novel because she finds herself so intrigued by serial killers and thinks she might want to become one someday. To curb her desire of homicide, she becomes a kind of vigilante of sorts. Lane finds people who have done wrong and gotten away with it and takes matters into her own hands. All the while trying to be a normal teenager and blend in because she knows very well that she is anything but normal.Lane is also quite emotionless throughout the novel, another typical sign that someone could potentially become a killer, however even though she lacks emotion I was never bored with the book, which I found interesting. She becomes this vigilante to control her urges to kill but a notorious serial killer, the Decapitator, keeps taunting her killer instinct with photos and videos of his kills, making her more fascinated by the act of killing. Throughout the entire novel you are trying to figure out who the Decapitator is, I know I was. I had my guess two chapters into the book and thought I was going to be right, I was so sure of it. Then, the big reveal happened and I was utterly shocked. Not just because I was wrong but because of the true identity of the murderer. If you enjoy mystery novels I would definitely pick this one up for your next read!

Killer Instinct eBook SE Green Reviews
This is definitely a Y.A version of Dexter. I'm sorry but it is. That out of the way though my little black heart skipped a beat when I read this. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. It was definitely entertaining. It was a little wish washy though at times. Sometimes shed let her victims go. But otherwise a good book to read I'm glad a friend recommended it to me.
I am not a young adult. I'm not anywhere near being a young adult. I am old enough to be a young adult's grandmother, yet I was hooked on this story immediately. Lots of action and an incredible heroine. I think there's a little of her in all of us. My best advice is "If you buy this book for your young adult, read it before you give it to them." You won't regret it, in fact, you might keep the book and buy them another!Killer Instinct
Warning If you make it through to the end, you will think why the hell did I waste my time finishing this. Had serious potential to be an awesome female version of Dexter book, but got reallyweird really fast.
It was okay, easy reading (read in one sitting over a couple of hours) but just felt it was a thinly veiled teenaged "Dexter Morgan" story.
There were parts of Lane's adventure of self that were truly entertaining and I wish this could have been more developed. Her vigilante explorations were definitely the highlights but the whole plot crashed in the reveal - it was just sad, really. I thought that there was some great potential in a rather fun heroine if you were able to tease out Jeff Lindsay's character.
I will not be shocked when this launches into a series.
I would like to see what else S.E. Green has done.
I've always had a fascination with killers and thought Lane was a fascinating character. She's cold, but still attempts to do the 'right' thing even if it doesn't always mean 'right' in the traditional sense.
The mystery is great, and I was guessing until the end and the reveal did surprise me in a big way.
My only thing was the slut-shaming of Lane's sister really did bug me... for someone who cares so little about emotional relations I was taken off guard by her opinions on her sister's sexual activity.
Otherwise, I really enjoyed it and can't wait to dive into the sequel.
I read Killer Instinct, by S.E. Green, in one day. Despite a couple bad editorial reviews, I found it a riveting but problematic story. Lane is not a very likeable character. She is anti-social, unemotional, and often rude. She is obsessed with serial killers and decides to begin hunting them to make them pay for their crimes.
Her mother and stepfather are FBI agents and she has a younger half-sister and brother. There’s a serial killer out there who kidnaps and decapitates a different woman each September. Lane sneaks into her mom’s files on the killer in the hope of finding him first. But then, “The Decapitator” contacts her, letting her know that the killer is closer than she ever thought, and that family secrets are prolonging the killer’s reign of terror.
I would recommend this only to older teens due to a couple completely gratuitous and explicit sex scenes that did nothing to advance the story in any way..
This was a good book and I enjoyed reading. That being said, I am almost 29 and I am a huge Dexter fan. I felt there was a lot of borrowing from Dexter that many younger teens today might not see because they are not familiar with the show. I am not bothered by the borrowing since I had numerous English teachers (and professors) tell me that "good authors borrow, great authors steal." It was a little hard to enjoy the book as much as I wanted to because I was looking for the next Dexter-ish thing the character would do.
All that being said, however, it is nice to see teen female characters being written as (kind of) psychopaths. This book, "Dear Killer", and "You Know What You Have to Do" are three recent books I have read that focus on female psychopathy and it is really interesting to see. It is refreshing to read books that are not dystopian and have strong teen girls as lead characters...albeit they are killers. In general, however, these girls are killing for reasons (usually moral) as opposed to just killing anyone they wish because they want to.
I will caution future readers, there is a bit of gore, and (again) it does feel a lot like a female teen Dexter (again not a bad thing), but the ending was awesome!
