I found myself loving and loathing Kitty Collins; this book had me giggling to myself, being angry at Kitty, yet also sympathising with her. The book addresses the hard truths of being a woman and, despite putting a positive spin on the serial murder of men, does consider the moral questions of Kitty's actions.
I went into the book expecting slightly more of a thriller and found myself noting that the Thursday Murder Club would have Kitty found out in minutes. I am, however, glad that this wasn't the case as I think that too much police involvement and aftermath would've taken away from the fast paced plot.
I enjoyed how the main character's backstory was gradually explored as the plot progressed in a way that made you understand her actions; but didn't leave the reader feeling as though they were jumping between two separate narratives. The ending had a few unexpected twists and has been left open for a possible second book.
