How to Kill Your Family by Bella Mackie
3.25
dark lighthearted mysterious medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This is a tough one to rate because I usually like the main characters of the books I read. I did not like Grace, but I get that she’s not meant to be liked… she’s a serial killer.

I was intrigued by how she managed to kill 6 people without raising suspicion and I thought the way she carried out the murders was pretty ingenious, but the background story of her childhood bored me a little. 

Did not see that ending coming. At first, the addition of a new character annoyed me, but it ended up working out in a weird way. Just kinda wish we’d gotten to see Grace’s reaction to that.
