Definitely engaging. Part of the thing with this type of book is you never know if you're going to fully like it until you see how it ends. I was flipping pages like crazy and the end to me was satisfying enough.
I read at the back this was the author's first foray into adult fiction so I think she used the f word a few too many times. Still a very solid book.

It was slow to start but eventually hooked me in. I didn’t call the murderer at first, they kind of slid in at the end there, but still a good shock in my opinion. Big nice guy energy lol. Everybody cheating! Not mind blowing, but not bad overall.

In general, I had a solid time reading this. It's not going to go down as the best or most memorable thriller I've read, and it was less thrilling vs whodunit, but it was a decent time. The grandma was by far the best character, and I enjoyed Lucy's dark humor. The plot twist felt a little off for me, but I didn't hate it.
