WOMEN. I. LOVE. WOMEN. especially when they’re murderous. i loved how the main plot twist was revealed halfway through but i was still on the edge of my seat for the last half, and almost MORE SO because of it being revealed so early. 10/10 recommend & i can’t wait to read her other book “temper”!!

The best book I've read all year! I was hooked from the beginning and never knew what would happen next.

I'm so glad there was a happy sapphic ending that we never got in Killing Eve.
