4.5

It's official, Katy Brent is now an auto-buy author for me! 4.5 ⭐️

[AD: thanks to Netgalley and HQ Stories for an advanced copy of this book]

SYNOPSIS:

"Something bad happened last night.

I’ve woken up with the hangover from hell, a stranger in my bed, and I’ve gone viral for the worst reasons.

But I can’t remember a thing…

My best friend Posey is dead. The police think it was a tragic accident. I know she was murdered.

There’s only one thing stopping me from dying of shame. I need to find a killer."  Goodreads

MY THOUGHTS

⭐️ I adored How to Kill Men and Get Away With It so I was beyond excited to read the new one from Brent, and they didn't disappoint!

⭐️ Brent has an amazing ability to write characters that you deeply care about and root for but are complex and flawed, and in this book, it's Molly Monroe.

⭐️ This book starts with a bang, Molly waking up from the night before, with a man in her bed wondering what happened.  I was gripped from then on in!

⭐️ It's jam-packed with plots, twists, and brilliant social commentary about the treatment of women, social media, SA, misogyny, and more - with some humour along the way.

⭐️ I went into this one blind and I would recommend, other than the synopsis above, do so too, it makes for a wild ride.

⭐️ It's fast-paced and I literally consumed this in a few days and have already bought it for a friend's birthday!

I will 100% be reading the next book that Katy Brent releases!
