I needed a good brain rot book I could binge and this HIT. I didn’t see the twists coming. I devoured it. it read so easily. it satisfied exactly what I needed it to be. will I ever think about it again? probably not. but it’s well written and a good time so 5 stars

Asså jävlar. De hände saker hela tiden och man ville alltid läsa mer och när man trodde man visste nått så visade det sig att man inte alls gjorde det. Först trodde man de va Nina som va ”den onda” men sen fick man ju reda på att det var Andrew hela tiden och Nina som blivit plågad och planerat att Millie skulle döda Andrew vilket hon ju gjorde. Millies backstory va ju bra och passande och värre än vad man trodde hahahah. Men i slutet blev de ju klart att Evelyn (hans mamma) va den som startade allt även om de inte är en ursäkt för vad Andrew gjorde mot både Nina och Millie.

This is without a doubt one of the top 3 books I’ve ever read. Possibly number 1. I can’t wait to start the next one!

The twist was a lot more “in my face” and predictable than I was expecting, but it did not fail to keep me engaged. I was unable to put the book down.

The first book club selection of the year went by fast! The book starts at the end and you are left to try and piece it together before it is all over. You definitely are led to believe the story will take you one way and then it takes you another. I don't want to spoil it, but it doesn't go exactly how I anticipated it would at the start.

Was this the best book I'll read this year? No. But I definitely enjoyed the ride and would recommend it to others (who are ok with the large number of content warnings applied here).
