Wow. This book fueled my fury, that is for sure. The Change forces us to look at the power we place in the hands of not only the wealthy but men in general. When three women, the unlikeliest of friends, find themselves drawn together, they have no idea what they are in for. But, one thing is for certain- they will not stop until they figure out exactly what they are dealing with. A gym owner, a botanist, and a nurse stumble upon a dead body only to learn this is just one of many. This story unravels a very tangled web of suspects and lies that will keep you on your toes and ready to burn it all to the ground!

5.0

An absolutely feminist powerhouse of a book, everything resonates with women’s treatment in a patriarchal society but what I love about it is that there are 3 badass main women that investigate and get their revenge, which is missing from most books that contain violence against women and girls.

Holy SHIT, I loved this book. I don't even know where to begin with my review. Just 450+ pages of strong, powerful women, coming into their own, banding together, and fucking shit up for the terrible men around them. We get glimpses and backstories on even the side characters, which adds so much richness to the story that's being told. The pieces fall into place like a vengeful puzzle. I really, really loved this one.

I loved this book. Thriller, mystery, feminine power all wrapped in to one supernatural story. The characters are strong and venerable all at once and the plot is somewhat predictable but still very good.
