OMFG this was insane!! I can't even describe the level of discomfort, shock, anger, and disgust I felt while reading this.

Ivory Addison is a local news anchor who is handpicked by a nationally syndicated network to host/interview woman in a new True Crime series. She travels to max prisons and speaks with woman about their crimes and what led them there. That alone was fascinating enough to draw me in.

But when she sits down with Amalia Havoc shit gets weird. I'm not going to spoil it by telling you specifics on what this woman did but let me say Alieen could never. Amalia didn't just unalive men, she humiliated, tortured, and left them unrecognizable.

As a reader I felt hella conflicted because Amalia targeted men in power that took advantage of the weak. Think Epstein and Diddy.

Amalia's calm and sweet demeanor drops, and we see her spiral and lash out, as she tells her past traumas that lead to her becoming a killer, trust you will be all in your feelings.

The twist at the end had me uncomfortably laughing like WHAT??

Octavia always does a fantastic job writing dark, twisted, mentally unstable characters.
