Only If You're Lucky by Stacy Willingham
3.25
mysterious medium-paced

A very fast read but not too memorable.

It was more of a character study than anything, I thought. There was an air of mystery surrounding our cast but nothing to me was very shocking. 

Lucy was a complicated person. She did a lot to get into Margot's good graces and it all unravels slowly. Margot, having been through the death of her best childhood friend, was understandably standoffish but I wish she had more of a backbone throughout instead of just at the end.

I did guess one little mystery not too long before it was shown on the page but all it made me think was "huh, that's interesting I guess".

I still think this author's first novel was the best
