Pin to See the Peepshow V
Julia is hardly able to take it in that she is to be executed. Leo is to be hanged on the same day. She cracks up badly, and has to be given sedatives. She realises that her affair with Leo never really meant anything. He had been fond of her but there was no substance to the relationship. She does not seem to feel much remorse for Herbert's death. However her execution is unfair in that she did not take part in killing him. But her foolish letters did give the impression that she was eager to get rid of her husband, and as such an accessory to the murder.
I dont know if I like the book very much. Julia is not all that likable, and while one feels sorry for her, I feel that Jesse excused her rather too much.
