"#thriller. This was barely a thumbs up. Protagonist kept using extremely bad judgment, which was tiresome. Twist at end was too predictable. "

"Just finished this book! Despite most characters being unrelatable rich b*****es, this book was really good! Super twisty, pretty spicy as well but the plot is so good. I thought I had it all figured out, but I was wrong and I bet you will be too! "

"It was okay, I saw the twist coming but the writing was great ! The MC’s obsession was a little odd, bordering on silly lol but it wasn’t that bad of a read. 3/5 "

"368 pages… her obsession with Margot is just so unrealistic and strange to me, it kept taking me out of the book. Plus there was so much grossness going on the whole time, it took away from the suspense of the book in my opinion."

"6.5/10-> not much to say about this book. It was good but not amazing, like good and interesting plot but it just didn’t do too much for me. Felt like beginning and middle were dragged out. "

"Well, well, well! Nothing like a smash up with Mean Girls and Desperate Housewives! These woman are the quintessential small southern town cougars that you love to hate but can’t help but want to read about! They love shooting guns and like their men young...well except their successful husbands of course! <br/><br/>So sexy and scandalous, and I hated that I loved it so much. Great murder mystery that will keep you on your toes!"
