The Talented Mr. Ripley was a pretty good read. Everything felt so exact and precise and reflected the main character's foibles well. Even the sunny beach scenes couldn't entirely dispell the idea that some bad shit was going to go down. And there's absolutely no "good" characters in here. Everyone is complicated and dimensional. I just wish that I'd felt more tension while reading this. For the most part, I read along thinking how tings would not end well for some folks but not all that worried for any of them.
I will give this one a 5.
