In reply to Susie | Novel Visits. Everything about the characters rubbed me the wrong way, but I still liked her writing!

In reply to susan. It is a bit, but she's not alone in the manipulations and maybe that's the draw? It was all too messy for me.

In reply to Laila. It is surprising, but not in the way the synopsis makes it sound on Goodreads.

The author never got into this angle, but I also saw Ivy as a sort of typical millennial. She expected it all without putting in the work!

Hmm. Thanks for your vetting of this one for me. Not sure its hype is all it claims to be. I was wondering if Ivy’s obsession is just a bit creepy? stop at nothing kind of thing? That might bother me …
Nice comparison you draw with Becky Sharpe …

Read another review of this today and I’m intrigued simply because I need a page-turning thriller. I’ll out myself on the waiting list at the library.
