I support women's rights, but more importantly, women's wrongs. 
I really loved this! And I was really surprised that this book that took entirely during the COVID lockdown didn't bother me the way reading other books set during COVID were. 
The premise of the book is accurate and sells it - 4 different women kill their abusive husbands, and then work together to dispose of the bodies. It is funny, and I'm very satisfied with how it progressed and ended (
I even was pleased when the small twist at the end with Edwina happened because I had a feeling that her husband was under the tree and I loved it!
).
Highly recommend, especially if you love dark comedy and abusers getting what comes to them, and women banding together.
