I am SO upset that this didn’t end up as much of a thrill as I expected 🥺 The beginning was gripping and I thoroughly enjoyed the differing perspectives (flicking between current Libby’s and past Ben/Patty’s perspectives).
But I’m so cross with the ending 😂 I think there was such a big build up for it to fall short.
Spoiler
It was messed up that Patty felt she had to hire someone to kill her, and that Diondra got Michelle, obviously, but it made a lot of sense in the end 😫This one definitely requires many content warnings, which I’ll include below!
3.5 out of 5 stars for me ✨ Thank you!

ben is truly a horrifying character. like he makes me physically ill. a true creep and the fact he covered the murder of his own damn sister for his crazy gf is literally psychotic and i can’t wrap my head around it. i know he hated michelle but like…not to mention all the other shit literally anything this man did was beyond fucked up and his character is so disgusting.also i got so sad when patty’s death was revealed. girly was just trying her best with 0 support and decided to die :,( heart breaking.
