They [Men] want us to bend and bend, let them say and do whatever they want to us. They get away with it, over and over again.

It is so satisfying to read a serial killer killing awful men.

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.

This book was everything I wanted it to be, and I knew it would be from the first sentence (I'll know it's working when he starts to scream--that's the first line!). I am also a sucker for a book with short chapters, and this one has that going for it. I think the twists are likely predictable for those who read more thrillers than I do, but they nevertheless pay off. If you want lady rage, this is your book. It's a lot of fun, and great for spooky season!
