It's fine, very breezy read. Slightly more violent/rape-y Home Alone.

More lighthearted than his other books but still just as enjoyable. More realistic take on a home alone style revenge story. Liked Katy and her friendship with Jill.

Another wonderful addition to the collection of stories I’ve affectionately heard called the “good for her.” What starts off relatively light hearted quickly turns dark but fun. Revenge is always a good story and it helps when the protagonist is smart. While her overconfidence has dire consequences in the beginning she quickly refocus and reframes herself and boy what a ride. Loved it.
