🍸 Instagram star and influencer, Katy Collins is surrounded by fame and fortune. A normal night out turns into a freaky accidental death of the man who followed her from the nightclub. But what also remained is a new addiction - the thrill of killing.

🍸 Dark, twisted and hilarious. It had those dark comedy thriller elements that I normally gravitate towards. Loved the pop culture references.

🍸 The plot lacked some originality and often lost its sense of realism. Overall story felt like it was from a TV series. It's obvious these characters aren't people you'd want to hangout with and Katy Brent has perfectly created them to be so toxic.

Bridges Book Club pick. Such utter trash, I cannot spend any more time on it apart from to say it needs every content warning available. This is not a feminist book. I feel sorry for anyone who thinks this sort of Made in Chelsea vacuous nonsense is worthwhile. I feel sorry for anyone who follows influencers.

Guaranteed to have you flying through the pages. It’s a light hearted, not realistic book about murder, love and friendship. In a typical Joe Goldberg fashion it had me rooting for the main character to make it without getting caught.

For those of you who are interested or like this, I would definitely recommend “How To Kill Your Family” for a slightly darker spin!
