dark mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned is so true. Some parts was drastic and unrealistic but that’s fiction for you. It also felt dragged out. I feel like the story wasn’t really completed because the introduction wasn’t finished. It wasn’t a bad read just exaggerated.

Gosh. I really want to like this one. Unfortunately it was so much going on and all over the place that I just couldn’t enjoy it, and made myself see it to the end because I wanted to know how she ended up at the police station. Reesha -aka- Reesie was being cheated on by her husband in the worst way, but the vendetta took so long to execute that by the time it actually happens I was over it. Soooo many things happened in this book, but it didn’t make sense why all these things were happening, and some of it was just so unbelievable I found myself irked at the characters and not in a good way. The number of typos threw me off as well.
I’m glad to see Octavia’s writing has evolved since releasing this one. This one wasn’t a fav, but she’s still in my top 5 thriller writers.

This book was awesome. Reesie was the embodiment of a women scorned. What she did and the story was amazing. Prepared to be shocked while reading this book!
