The Devil In The White City

"Remains of the Day" is a very sick and depressing chapter. I knew that Julia was going to get pregnant but i didnt think that Holmes would so sick as to kill her. I thought he was just going to dump her. He told her that he would only marry her if she got an abortion, he has no heart, and he said he would do it on Christmas Eve. I thought that was pretty sick of him. He gave her too much chloroform on purpose and killed her then went up to Pearl's room and killed her too. On Christmas Eve he did all this I was so depressed. He said that the thought of her dying aroused him which was sick. I can't believe it. He said that the day meant nothing to him because it only brought back bad memories of his childhood. Thats no excuse to kill them on that day. The next day the neighbors waited for Pearl to come through the door with bright eyes, but they never came and they suspected something of Holmes. Yet they had no proof that he did anything and after he made up a story to cover up what happened. He almost got caught by the new people who moved in Julia's apartment because they found clothes laid out on a chair and dishes were still on the table and the new people freaked out and asked what happened, and Holmes lied once more about what happened. He called his friend over to pick the flesh off thier bones so he could sell thier skeletons to hospitals. I thought it was so sick, my stomach is churning just talking about it. I hope the next chapter is less graphic.
