I was not expecting to like this book as much as I did! It was a little bit of a slow start but when it got going it really was a brilliant time.
I loved the progression of the story and the escalation and refinery in Grace’s plan as the time went on. The whole book I was waiting on more details and I rarely found myself to be bored or waiting for a murder to be finished.
My main issue comes with how annoying I found Grace and the motivation just seemed meh. I wanted more from it considering how well it seemed to have been thought out.
The ending has been one of my favourites in a good while because even though it was absolutely infuriating, it was such a clever and evil ending.
Overall I’ll definitely be recommending this book to friends because it was a TREAT.
