Dexter meets You meet vapid, self obsessed influencer. I stuck with it to get to her ultimate motivation and was bummed with the let down. Once you knew dad wasn’t dead… you basically knew what happened. The stalker was also predictable. It wasn’t the one of the two that I was thinking it was the most…. So it wasn’t kind of a let down…. Though the stalker was still murdered by Kitty… so at least that followed the exact format I was expecting.

Ah, I'm struggling so much with this book. If it didn't include unnecessary disgustingly detailed scenes of killing animals, it would've easily been a higher rating. I enjoyed the story. I laughed, I nearly cried. I was shocked by plottwists. I loved reading about an unhinged character getting revenge on awful people. But the animal scenes... look, maybe I'm weird for being fine with detailed murder of fictional people, but even a mention of dead animals makes me want to puke. These extremely detailed scenes of animals being killed? It completely ruined this book for me that I almost DNFed me. It felt unnecessary and disgusting. It made me sick. 

So yeah, in the end, I don't think I'd even recommend this book because of that. If it weren't for those scenes, this would've been an all time favorites. But alas.

Not sure if I'll read the sequel. The animal deaths in this book came out of nowhere because I didn't research trigger warnings - I didn't have to because aside from animal abuse and death, I don't need those. But I'll do some research on the sequel and if it has scenes like that as well. If not, I might still read it.
