This was surprisingly enjoyable! A little slow in the beginning but once you hit the twist in the middle, it picks up and I could not put it down! A really great feminist revenge serial killer book.

I knew from the first few chapters that this book was gonna get 5 stars. Amazingly built suspense with dark humor. You need to read this book.

I don't get all the hype for this book. The main character was literally a psycho killer and I know that it was intentional mainly for the formulation of the plot (Create a female-lead character, make her a girlboss, give her credits for sweeping off rapists/evil men) but that doesn't erase the fact that she's a murderer. And she got away with it. I mean, yea the kills were justifiable but it's not for her to smite them all. But anyways, it's just fiction.

4.5

Vigilante feminist killer book with some great twists and very well written! I loved this. I love when an author writes an excellent full complex character that you should be rooting against because they are a murderer but then you find yourself rooting for them… 

I like the two different views. I felt the author went seamlessly between Scarlett and Carly . She also starts and ends every chapter excellently which makes the book super propulsive. There are a few things  that are far fetched which is why it’s a 4.5 instead of a 5 but tbh I’m okay with it because of how well written this book was. I loved the feminist feeling, how sexual assualt was handled , and also the lgbtqia rep. I will for sure be checking out more from this author.
