But based on a true story. That gives it some value. If it was just somebody's dark fantasy, then I'd say it's trash.

"based on" means exaggerated, changed, tweaked at the writer's whim. it's not a report it's an entertainment, using somebody's pain and horror for entertainment.

You don't need to read it. Try one of the gazillion other books out there waiting for you!
