OK. Wow.
Fergie is on the warpath!!! And fair play to the girl - where most of us would shrivel up into a bawl and wish we could disappear..... Fergie finds that little kernal of "bada$$ B!tch" that we all have and nurtures it into full growth and let's it loose on the Poison Ivy Club.

BUT. She doesn't realise its going to have a knock on effect with their parents and cause a rupture through the solid foundation the trio of women have had for decades.

This book is written so well. We see it go beyond high school antics and silly revenge plays (altho the papa smurf thing is funny!!).

When they realise how badly they've affected the triumvirate.... Its too late.

The cliffhanger was unexpected! I actually thought we were coming to an end! It felt like everything was coming so wrapped up..... Nuh uh!!!

So well written again.
I love reading from Fergie pov aswell. It doesn't detract from the story at all, in fact it enhances it, especially when it comes to the relationship with Torsten. I love that boy! I still think he lives with autism, or some kind of strain of it. His way of communicating is by his drawing and my heart felt for him when Cas destroyed his work. That was a low blow by him...

I can't get into any other book!! I need to know how this ends!!!

EDIT: I saw a lot of reviews questioning how accurate the FMC's descriptions and abilities are in this series, and it almost stopped me from reading it. Then I read the authors bio and her notes at the end of the books, where she tells us that she's legally blind and many of her own experience and abilities are included, so I realized I don't really have a clue what is and isn't possible to discern when you use senses other than eyesight and I'll just trust the author who does. 😊
