** spoiler alert ** TW/CW: murder, violence, cheating


I had heard about this book for a while, but didn't decide to pick it up until I saw Jeneva Rose's TikTok. If this were a rating on Jeneva herself, her TT content or the sheer genius of her marketing, I'd be at a minimum of 4 stars. 

But, unfortunately I'm reviewing the book. And I feel bad that my first thought, upon completing this book, was "Damn, Scott. You were onto something". (Follow Jeneva and her Scott drama. Whether it really happened or just is insanely good marketing, it's absolutely entertaining)

I wanted to love this book. The synopsis sounded amazing. However the book quickly fell apart. Because the only way this plot works is if every character in the book is just about as smart as a bowl of cereal. You give just one character one brain cell and the entire plot falls apart. 

I still can't get a handle on whether or not I was ever supposed to like our main character, Sarah. While her husband was absolutely the worst, I also really hated her. She is a privileged wyt woman who looks down on pretty much everyone. 

I could say more. But honestly I would be here all day if I wrote out everything I hated about this book. 

I do want to end on something positive, so I will say the pacing was excellent. While the book drove me bananas, I did keep reading until the end because of the pacing. I knew it wasn't going to be a big time investment. Also Jeneva Rose seems to be a very creative person. I think she has the ability to be much better than this book.
