I picked this up hoping for a quick, easy read between fantasy books and I definitely got what I wanted.
Barb is a mesmerising character and I found myself easily enraptured by her ‘social media influencer’ lifestyle. The life so many people yearn for, yet ultimately it is making her miserable, so is it really worth it?
I really enjoyed the exploration of social media and the world of influencers. The falsity, the sense of expectation, nothing feeling as good as it should. Added in with some rather complex relationships and a hell of a plot twist I really genuinely enjoyed this one and was cheering for Barb at the end!
