This was fantastic! I became obsessed with Marie Rutkoski’s writing style after reading The Midnight Lie last year. Real Easy was a totally different vibe however. A quick paced who-done-it with The Lovely Lady strip club as the main setting. I’m not well versed with strip clubs, let alone behind the scenes of one. I felt like the author did some serious homework, because it jumped off the page. The pacing was steady, and each chapter jumped perspectives from detectives, to strippers, to “Him” 👀 I was kept on my toes til the end & so glad I made this one of my first reads of the year! Thanks to Marie Rutkoski, NetGalley & Henry Holt & Co for the advanced reader copy! 4 ⭐️’s
