Mini Book Review: Thank you so much to Colored Pages Book Tour & Macmillan for an advance copy of this book! Thank you so much to Macmillan audio for the complimentary audio!

This book is out now.

"The best liars, Sade had found, were the ones who were also lying to themselves in some way."

I was super excited to get an early copy of Faridah's follow up to Ace of Spades. The cover alone draws you in.

The first half of this book was incredibly slow and if you are a fan of slow burn in thrillers than perhaps you will love this. But the last 40% is really where it shined. You don't know who to believe and I was not sure where exactly this was going. There were some surprising twists. The romance thrown in at the end just felt like a throwaway and I didn't think was really necessary to the story. I think I would have enjoyed this more if it had not been so long. I am glad though everything was wrapped up by the end.

If it wasn't for the audio I think this would have taken me a long time to complete. Unlike with Ace of Spades, this is told from 1 POV. I thought the narrator was Natalie Simpson did a good job with the text. She felt believable as Sade.

This book will make you angry and another tale of rich (likely white) boys who think they can get away with things.
And the angry women who refuse to take their crap.
