I debated giving this a 2 because I did enjoy a few stories but I honestly got so angry at this book. I don't think I could tell you the overall point of any of these stories and the way it was written made me feel like an idiot

I had so much fun with this series! Glad to read it but sad its over. I can't wait to watch the series and realise I've been saying half of the names wrong

Did not finish book.

I technically finished this in the sense that I skimmed part 3 but didn't actually read it properly. Realistically the same could be said for the first 2 parts as well because even though I did read those I found the whole thing very hard to retain. The concept seemed like such a good idea but the book itself doesn't live up to the idea and this type of writing style just goes over my head. It feels unfair to rate a book that I didn't give myself a chance to finish but in that same vein if I enjoyed it more than I might have finished it properly.

This book was good but I can't see it being very memorable now that I've finished it

There were some moments where the book was really interesting but then it wouldn't sustain it for me to keep enjoying it as much, still an interesting book though

I'm usually a big supporter of women's right and women's wrongs, including murder. I love it when fictional woman kill, I even wrote my dissertation on it, so I found myself shocked that I was not enjoying this book because the main character is just so damn unlikeable. She is so mean and nasty but not even in a fun way. Big tory energy.
