4.5

Another really excellent Hendrix's book and one that goes deeper into the heads of his female characters than I thought Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires managed. I literally could not put this book down today and it's always a delight to find a book to propels you so clearly through it's story. I found some sections a bit formulaic; the plot's pace and a few beats reminded me of Book Club in ways that makes me wonder if this is a genre thing or just Hendrix's reliance on a formula? More reading is needed but it didn't take away from the really moving portrayal of best friendship. As someone with a lifelong best friend, I resonated so much with the emotions and love between Gretchen and Abby. The end had me in tears. All in all, a solid read!
