The website Goodreads.com, is a popular book review website that started back in 2007. They pride themselves as being a site that focuses on its readers and book recommendations. The company has over 30 million readers and 34 million books in their database. One of the many popular features of the site is that you can view what your friends are reading and also what they have read previously. You can also leave reviews and make suggestions to your friends. Otis Chandler is the CEO and the very reason why he created the site so he could easily get recommendations from friends. Of course, he created it for his passion for books as well.

One of the books featured on the website is entitled “Till Death Do Us Part: Love, Marriage, and the Mind of the Killer Spouse”. The book is authored by Dr. Robi Ludwig and Matt Birkbeck. This book goes into great detail and analysis about killer spouses. It dives into the some of the specific psychological reasons of why it may have happened or why one spouse turned violent. They discuss the spouse profiles and history. According to Dr. Robi Ludwig, on the Goodreads website the full description of the book is described and quoted as: “Every day six people in the United States are murdered by spouses or intimate partners. Society is captivated and startled by stories of these killers, leading people to wonder how seemingly normal and happy people manage to go over the edge. In Till Death Do Us Part, noted psychotherapist Dr. Robi Ludwig, along with journalist Matt Birkbeck, presents the psychological profiles of notorious killer spouses — from Scott Peterson and Clara Harris to Rabbi Fred Neulander and Betty Broderick. Dr. Ludwig reveals the ten killer personality types and defines them in detail with examples from high-profile cases and in-depth analyses of the motivations behind the murders.” I must say she describes the book very well and is highly qualified in this area. There are currently 73 ratings of the book online at Goodreads.com and 11 full reviews for the book. It is a paperback and features 256 pages. The book publisher is Atria books.  I wrote about my review and additional information about Robi’s the book here.

Being so successful in her career this far, there is a high probability that her childhood inclination will earn her fame in this jewelry line as well. Her early love exerted her creative skills and she started designing jewelry for herself. Being her sole collection, it looks very sophisticated and bears a mild touch of ancient times, which created excitement among her fans and they started questioning her about the vendor from where she shops. She herself was not aware of how much the public craves for her specifically designed jewelry items, but discovered it soon. She designed her first collection upon the request of her close friend, to raise funds for a charity and then came the very popular “believe pendant” to the market.
