Everyone in this book was terrible and it somehow wasn't that fun. Sophie moves back to her hometown and becomes obsessed with sassy gun toting Margot, in a bunny-boiler kind of way. She earns an invite to their Friday night hunting club, where the married ladies all go out and pick up dudes. Sophie, despite being married with a child, is sucked into these girls nights out and keeps missing curfew and blowing off her husband. She then finds out that Margot is having an affair with one of the other women's son! Ick ick ick. She has a brief dalliance with another teen, and I do think pedophilia makes you irredeemable. There is some cat and mouse when the teen boy's girlfriend shows up murdered, with Sophie thinking she's being framed, but ultimately it was the mom of the boy Margot's been sleeping with. Whatever. Messy ladies who did not get their deserved comeupance.
