Real Easy by Marie Rutkoski
4.0

I picked this book up for the 90s references and I was in the mood for a crime drama. It was really fun to see the different perspectives of each character. We get so little of the character who dies and it leaves you wanting to learn more about her beyond the third person. The twist with the killer felt a bit anti-climatic with all of the buildup - like it was missing chemistry. It was one of the few perspectives that were dry, but it was a fun read regardless. It felt like reading a critque on 1990s night life with modern understandings of feminism, sex work, and relationships.
