Despite the number of potential trigger warnings, this book is NOT what meets the eye and was quite the entertaining read!

Had me giggling and kicking my feet like a DCOM but with more swearing, murder, and family anxiety.

4.0

I really enjoyed the plot of this book, and I think I'd read another, even though the writing wasn't my fave. It was very conversational, which is totally accessible and fun and makes for a nice relaxing read. It's just not as much my jam. But I love a good love story, and I really liked the peak into this very female-driven world.

trigger warnings: date rape and assault, car crash, accidental manslaughter, suffocation, divorce, toxic partners, kidnapping and gunpoint, alcohol use, drug use

This book was a fever dream in a good way. I never liked those weird slapstick murder comedies where everything went wrong but maybe I just needed to read/watch one where the characters aren't white and already absolved from guilt by the law simply because they're white. The anxiety of being found out and actual steep consequences occuring really added to the absurdity of how blaise Meddy's mother and aunts were. This book was so fucking enjoyable and I cannot believe there's a whole other book. I don't know what the fuck is happening in that one but the excerpt at the end of this was already wild enough.
