I picked this book up on a whim because I was drawn in by the spine and the cover. I’ve never heard anything about it nor known anyone who read it. But I did this as a buddy read with a friend, and by our 3/4 week, we decided to finish the second half all in one set it was that good.
I liked this book so much more than I thought I would. It wasn’t entirely what I was expecting, and a lot of it was predictable from a mystery/revenge plot standpoint, but I still devoured it. I loved the way that Libby and Frances were written together but separate for almost the entire book. It was a fascinating case of character development.
If you’re looking for an quick, easy read, with an interestingly written character and a mystery/revenge story then this is a book I would highly recommend!
