This was one hell of unique book with well done plot twists and my god, do I love unhinged women. 

But there are some writing choices I don’t vibe with and there is some unnecessarily detailed descriptions of awful stuff. Read the TW before reading.

I’m glad it was fast-paced because it wasn’t as good as it could’ve been. Kitty wasn’t a very likeable main character. I am comparing it to Sweetpea, which tbf the author does mention she got inspiration from, but it didn’t quite itch the same scratch

As a woman reading this, it explores the anxiousness, anger and fear that all women experience going through daily life.  It's emotional and I feel like you can really empathise with the main character throughout this book and understand her reasoning of what she does.  
This book was a joy to read and I would highly recommend it.
