Reviews with content warning for Kidnapping - Finlay Donovan Is Killing It

Definitely loved Finlay Donovan is Killing It! I greatly enjoyed the twists and turns that this story went through and the massive cliffhanger it left us on. I will most definitely be getting my hands on book 2 very soon! The only reason this wasn’t 5 stars for me was because I wish there was more detail into the murderer as I thought it was kind of glossed over. The last 50 pages also seemed a bit rushed, but not badly. Loved the relationships in this book, especially the funny dynamics between Finlay and Vero (she’s hilarious). Can’t wait for the series to continue!

Love love love! Intriguing, funny, page turning, full of heart and hijinks and a delightful juxtaposition of grounded and heightened. I’m going to stop reviewing and start reading the sequel now.

I wasn’t sure if I should rate this 4.5 or 5 stars, but I honestly enjoyed this so much that I talked my own mothers ear off about it. So, definitely a 5 star read!

Finlay was so funny and 100% relatable as a hot-mess mom. My sister has three kids under 3 and I honestly was so amused by Finlay that I could exactly imagine her chaos because of my own sister. Clearly the events were fetched, but still so believable I thoroughly enjoyed the way this went.

It was lighthearted and amusing, and the mystery was definitely grabbing. At no part of this whole series of events did I fall into boredom. It kept me captivated the entire time. Not to mention, the absolute embarrassment I felt as Finlay was too funny.

I was so happy I read this over Mother’s Day weekend, and it was so good I took my mum to the bookstore to get the second.

I just laughed so hard at points in this book. Findlay is a relatable character and the mystery keeps you going back for more.
