Going 4.5 on this one. I reallllllly liked this one! The pacing was great. characters were complex. Never really know who did what. And listening as an audiobook was PERFECT. The narrators on audible killed it.

Yes please! Oh this book - creative, creepy, a main character with lost memories and a desperate thirst for murder.
Loved the banter and tension for Lucy and Ben.
Lucy finally returns home after years of avoidance. It's finally out - a podcast announcing her name and connection to her bestie's mysterious death. They form a partnership to bring justice - but will Lucy discover she is the real killer?

I love this book has been chosen for Good Morning America's March Book club selection. Angry women - righteous and victimized, must have more attention. Well earned acclaim.

I found this book to be okay. I listened to the audiobook and enjoyed the narration and the different aspects of the podcast. I'm glad I didn't read the book, as I would have missed out on these elements that brought the story to life. Overall, I was entertained but also felt a bit underwhelmed.

Love when I can’t see the twist coming! I was guessing until the very end and was shocked at the end! Loved Lucy and her sense of humor and how real she was! Also loved the way the book was organized so you read the podcast episode transcript and then read how it impacts all of the characters. Fabulous book!
