4.5

This book is pure insanity. WOW. 

I'm giving it a 4.5 because even though it was NASTY, it SURE AS HECK kept me entertained.

This book takes a while to get going, but as SOON as it does, it doesn't stop. It's a wild ride until the end.
ABI IS A LITERAL PSYCHOPATH. SHE TRACKS DOWN THIS DUDE KNOWING THAT IT'S HER EX-HUSBAND'S SON (WHICH IS KIND OF INCEST), AND SEDUCES HIM TO GET PREGNANT TO GET BACK AT HER BEST FRIEND. AND THEN TELLS THEM THE BABY'S DEAD. LIAM DOESN'T KNOW SHE HAD THE BABY. LIKE DANG. THIS BOOK IS PURE INSANITY.
 

Lisa Jewell WOULD like this book. That is so funny to me.  This is a whole genre of books that I wasn't even aware existed until recently, and they are so messed up, but they allure me in so many ways.  I'm so scared but so excited at the same time. 

4.5 Stars. Wow.
