mfeibel 's review for:
Only If You're Lucky
by Stacy Willingham
This is for sure my favorite from Willingham. Sure, her writing is still denser than I like in a thriller. But I had so much fun with this.
The truest testament to that is that I guessed a lot of twists and I didn't even care because they were GOOD.
I totally called Lucy not being a student and being Eliza's half sister. And that Margot killed Eliza (though I thought it was on purpose).
I love these obsessive friendship stories. And, as someone who has felt attachment issues (thanks, anxiety), it's oddly reassuring to know that I only ever felt sad if I felt left behind by friends and not...murderous.
I absolutely did not guess that Sloane killed Lucy to protect Nicole. Or that Nicole had killed Levi, thinking he was her boyfriend (he was wearing his shirt) because her boyfriend had raped her on Halloween.
It was just a compelling thriller that had me on the edge of my seat. And it's proof that, while I often complain when I can see twists coming, it's only when they're lame twists lol
There was also a quote I loved about holding onto things but I have to get the book from the library to add it.
Basically, it's probably closer to a 4 but, because I liked it more than her others, I have to bump it up.
