 I honestly didn't think I was going to get as into it as I did. The story is fairly entertaining, and I didn't see the plot twist coming towards the end. I have to admit that it was quite satisfying. I love the underlying critique of influencer culture and how rotten it is, as well as the social critique of the high class. However, at the same time, I feel like it was a bit too easy for her to get away with it. I was expecting a little more tension and a bit more thrill from her getting close to being caught. The ending was satisfying, although she is going to need a lot of therapy. If thrillers and slashers are your thing, you might really enjoy it. It does touch on topics that might be upsetting to some, such as sexual assault, domestic abuse, sexual harassment, murder (obviously), eating disorders, and depression.

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.
