“Hell hath no fury like a scored woman who finds blue panties.”

But I’m the end, everyone has decided they are AOK, including Maddie who was frankly, a budding psychopath.

Why the Ellen Degeneres show though?

I wanted this to be 3.5 stars but the more I think about it the worse it gets. Well this one certainly had "a clever twist at the end." But it was still cheap. I don't know if the author or the narrator is bad. I think both but the author was worse. How did I find this book again? No one has read it.

I don't get why Patty was loyal to Mark and why she'd lie to Tamara about the affair happening all summer long.

Why would Maddie think to wear her dad's hat in the car?

And why doesn't Maddie's mom get more involved in her life?

They can just move on like a happy family after this?

Spoiler

Maddie shot Tamara. OK? That happened.
