Absolutely nothing about this worked for me. The humour wasn't funny, the characters had no personality, the plot twist was ridiculous. A lot of it felt like it was written to be quoted on twitter.

Very 'How to kill your family' vibes.

Premise was ok, but I found the execution awkward. Uncomfortable reading at times (which I guess was the point), but I couldn't get on board with the characters or the idea that she really would 'get away with it'

Interestingly, I really liked the murder after the night before by Katy Brent but I probably wouldn't have read it if I'd read this first!
