A book about two highly unlikable women fighting over the affection of one innocent man. The psychological downfall of the titular girlfriend is far too rushed and is painted as unjustified after the horrible deeds the mother inflicts on her. Moral of the story is "being poor and ambitious makes you a bad person and basically a psychopath".
Not an awful book but not really good either.
