YALL. DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS BOOK. 
It was soooooo good!! 
Think, Housewives of Atlanta but with murder. Think, Botox and fake boobs but with with malicious intent. Strong Alexis and David vibes. 
Okay and obvi, the book is titled “One of us is dead” so you for sure have no idea who it is right up until the end. It’s a pretty slow pace (meaning there’s no actual action until the 50% mark), but you just need to sit back and enjoy your popcorn in the comments section. Because, DRAMA. I cannot tell you how many times I said the phrase “Girl, no he didn’t.” Or “omg ew. She’s such a b*tch” or “periodt.” 
Let the tea just spill all out, yall. 
GO READ THIS! Ok love you. Bye.

This audiobook took me forever to read, which is weird because I was enjoying it. 

I jusy love reading about rich people drama. The beginning of this was really good and I was interested, but then in the middle I was kind of bored because it just felt repetitive. I wish there was more present chapters because I would honestly forget that someone was killed. *slight spoiler* Then the last little bit was actually shocking because I didn’t expect such a dark topic to be in this.

The slowest burn I've ever read from a thriller. Only picked up at the 7 hour mark. Which is a little unfortunate that you spend 7 hours listening to only get 2 hours of intriguing action.

Rich people drama at its finest...and I absolutely ate that shit up!
Although I figured out and correctly guess a lot of the smaller plot twists, I still had such an amazing time reading and was left completely speechless at all of the larger more powerful plot twists. 
I fell in love with this catty group of women and adored that we got each of their POVs throughout the story. 
Mama Crystal and mama Shannon absolutely slayed this entire book and they are now some of my favorite fictional people <3. 
Overall this story has quickly become one of my favorites and Jeneva has officially become one of my favorite authors! If you love rich people drama with a true crime twist, I highly suggest reading "One of Us Is Dead".
