She Started It by Sian Gilbert
3.0

3.5/5, rounded down.

Overall this was an entertaining summertime, beachy thriller. My main complaint was I felt that the main four women were all the SAME. Very similar voices in their POVs, similar vainness, similar issues. I found myself checking who was narrating which part and which character did/said what to keep everyone straight. It wasn’t until the half way through point where I kind of got the swing of who’s who.

I was able to predict the twist, however the hints were peppered through almost naturally. That didn’t take away from my enjoyment of the story.

The ending left me mostly satisfied. It just took a while for the story to get going. Just wish there was a little bit more.

I am not normally one that enjoys revenge fantasies like this one, however this surprised me and I read it fairly quickly.
