I would like to personally thank this book for busting me out of the worst reading slump I've been in so far this year. It was brought on by some drama in my personal life that kind of made picking up most books unbearable, but it turned out all I needed was this sapphic tale of revenge to get me back to myself. This book was immersive and morally complex and I enjoyed every minute of it! The writing was believable and smart without being too complicated and the pacing was excellent. Absolutely a new fave.

Wow wow wow! I loved this book more than I ever thought I would! I have always been a lover of thriller and this hit the spot. It was exciting, mysterious, tense, dark, and so much more. This is also the first queer thriller book I have read which I loved because I am always trying to find more queer books! I could not recommend this book enough! These characters were so interesting and there was so much going on with so many unexpected twists and turns, I was constantly being surprised. The main character is an epic girlboss and I love getting to be in her thoughts throughout the story. Just read this book!!!

HOLY SHIT
WHAT
WOW
One sentence summary: I support women’s rights and I especially support women’s wrongs.
This is the best thriller I have read in a while MY GOD!!!! I absolutely loved this. I think my reading slump ruined it from being a 5⭐️ which is so unfortunate. It dragged a teeny bit in the middle but otherwise it was perfection. I loved how it didn’t follow the classic formula and it was like nothing I have ever read before! Definetly picking up more from this author!!!!!!!
