Such Real Housewives energy but tenfold. The drama, cattiness, backstabbing and plotting is thick in this book!! I loved how it all centered these oppulant, rich women and their hotspot, Glow Beauty Bar. the multiple POVs on audio was just fantastic with the cast of actors.
The ending did feel a bit abrupt but it felt realistic with how crazy this cast of character were the whole time. The buildup of everyone's character and background made you feel like it could've been anyone who was murdered and the murderer! But overall I think it was a great book that was great on audio, with something for everyone in the plot IMO. Will be checking out other works from Jeneva Rose.

It was soooooo good!!
Think, Housewives of Atlanta but with murder. Think, Botox and fake boobs but with with malicious intent. Strong Alexis and David vibes.
Okay and obvi, the book is titled “One of us is dead” so you for sure have no idea who it is right up until the end. It’s a pretty slow pace (meaning there’s no actual action until the 50% mark), but you just need to sit back and enjoy your popcorn in the comments section. Because, DRAMA. I cannot tell you how many times I said the phrase “Girl, no he didn’t.” Or “omg ew. She’s such a b*tch” or “periodt.”
Let the tea just spill all out, yall.
GO READ THIS! Ok love you. Bye.

I jusy love reading about rich people drama. The beginning of this was really good and I was interested, but then in the middle I was kind of bored because it just felt repetitive. I wish there was more present chapters because I would honestly forget that someone was killed. *slight spoiler* Then the last little bit was actually shocking because I didn’t expect such a dark topic to be in this.

I’d say 75% of the book is a slow burn and mainly just talked about the rich women of Buckhead. The last bit is definitely where the action is and left me quite surprised. I really did not see the ending coming! I took one star off my review just because I felt like the ending was a bit rushed compared to the rest of the story and it made it a bit difficult to follow along with. I had to listen to it a couple times just to truly understand what happened.
