Pretty Things by Janelle Brown
4.0

I really flew through the first part of this book with the con setup and character introductions for Nina and her boyfriend, Lachlan. The backstory for the heiress/social media influencer, Vanessa, was kind of bland for me, and I typically do not find characters such as hers likable. The story could have benefited with Vanessa’s back story trimmed down. When the main characters wind up together at Stonehaven, their stories are intertwined more than they think. The second half of the book is quite exciting with its twists and turns. Overall, I enjoyed the book and the layers of con artistry.
