A cute mystery that’s an incredibly quick read. It’s far from perfect but we get a decent mystery (didn’t see the twist coming), and some solid female friendship to boot.

I would classify this book as a new adult novel instead of a mystery. The characters are immature. The book just isn't funny. Crass and disgusting at times, but I don't find that funny. The podcast segments are annoying and unnecessary. I won't be continuing the series.

I LOVED this books so much! 
It was a hilarious and fun murder mystery that’s all about Tucker James. Such a hunk but turns out he’s a ladies man! Kate his girlfriend finds out he’s got a whole other woman and then they find out he’s got ANOTHER!!! I was cackling and just in awe of everything was really going on. 

He had his hands FULL literally! The 3 girls come together to get the ultimate revenge and while doing it they come across his dead body! 

Twists and turns, they try to cover their tracks, to keep themselves from going to jail!

If you want a funny cozy murder mystery about 3 girls who are with the same guy and come together in the ultimate sisterhood to get even do listen/ read this! Narrator Carolyn King did a phenomenal job carrying this story from start to finish!

Title: The Ex-Girlfriend Murder Club

Author: Gloria Chao

Series: A Hu Done It Mystery #1


What to expect:

*Cheating ex

*Found friendship

*Surprise ending


Pros:

I love stories where women band together to take down cheating men!!! This is my first book by this author and I was very impressed with the “girl power” storyline. The surprise ending was great, I never suspected a thing!! 


Cons:

There are a lot of internal monologues from the main character, it was very frustrating listening to her thought process. There were also a lot of over the top scenes in the book, breaking and entering, loan sharks, shady podcast host…
