Rezension von Ali Gattodark, powerful, cruel angry. this book was absolutely captivating and was so well written. read the whole thing in one day. I've been looking forward to reading this book and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! BTW- the sapphic subplots were just SO GOOD
Rezension von enjoyed it less than I thought I would. pretty solid execution of the promising promise but still… sth was missing
Rezension von amelie🧁"He‘s just like the rest of them. They want us to bend and bend, let them say and do whatever they want to us. They get away with it over and over again" minor spoilers ahead This is a story about an english professor who made it her mission to murder bad men. Each year she picks out the worst male on campus and ends his life. Until her recent murder, a very personal one, spirals out of control… I loved this book! I read it in a day and i loved every second of it. It’s fast paced, short chapters and easy language. It has cozy autumn vibes and is just really witty. The story itself was amazing, the 3 main plottwists caught me off guard and i just loved the idea behind Scarlett/Carly. Definitely 4 stars for me because what’s not to like about a feminist woman murdering men? I didn’t give it 5 stars because i found the ending to be too unrealistic and i would have love to know what happened with Allison.. Yet definitely one of the best reads this year and i will definitely be looking deeper into other books by this author. I just love misandristic women in book :)
Rezension von AlmaI loved this book, everything is so beautifully described and more importantly: I LOVED THE REVENGE. Men will never learn and the system will 99% fails us. Some may disagree with me but, honestly? Go girl
Rezension von Merlin3.75 Very entertaining thriller. Even though I was not too shocked about any of the twists, I really liked both of the two protagonists POVs in their alternating chapters.
