A fun book about female rage. This book is part crazy & delusional part boring. The setting is very well established while avoiding tedious descriptive language. I read it in two sittings and I will admit I couldn't put it down but I also couldn't wait for it to be over. Most of the things occurring in the story are just there for shock value and offer nothing to the plot. The writing and language was good but the plot was poor and the characters extremely unbelievable and not well thought-out. Verdict: the best part of this book was the cover.
0Would I normally root for an unhinged woman? No Did I root for Satara? ABSOLUTELY This was an enjoyable book where I rooted for the "bad guy" the whole way through...until the very last page. Did I like the twist? Yes,...at first until it was explained why it happened. Did I enjoy reading it still? Yep.
0I LOVE UNHINGED WOMEN RAHHH 🫦 Satara has done nothing wrong 👀🙈 I will say the Lesbian aspect was out of nowhere, I didn't mind it! I had a feeling things weren't going to be so smooth, I love the way Mia Ballard writes, I will be getting a physical copy and tabbing the hell out of it
