So I ended up reading this book cover to cover within a day. I wouldn't be too bold as to say I loved this book, but it was a fast-paced thriller (with short chapters! woohoo!) that really kept my attention. I will say there was a ton of suspense - it's hinted right from the rip that there's a murder on the Hen trip, and there's plenty of suspense leading up to the murder. I didn't really find any one of the characters likable, except for Fen and Lexi. Otherwise, the flaws of the characters are front-and-center. I did enjoy that there's a few twists laid out in the book and that each one of these twists had me longing for more.
Overall, I give this book 4 stars!
One of the Girls will be out June 28, 2022.

Set against the landscape of a Greek island, this book follows a group of friends at a hen party, which first starts as a time to relax and escape but as the hen continues, secrets and tension seem to build until it all comes to an unfortunate conclusion.
The characters were easily the best part of this book. Each had something that they were hiding it feeling and for some, I couldn't guess exactly what that was until it became apparent. I did feel that some characters were written better than others, I assumed that they were all supposed to be the same level of likeable but they very much weren't. The only character I wanted to live throughout this hen sorry was Robyn, Elenor and Ana. The others I did not feel too strongly about.
I liked the way that the plot unwound itself though the little snippets between chapters did annoy me, I just felt they weren't needed. But the plot did have me guessing until the end and the reveal seemed shocking but in a way where it wasn't inconceivable which I appreciate.
Overall I did enjoy this, while I don't feel particularly strong about it, I feel as though it's a good beach read if you're into that sort of thing.
