"ALICIA BERENSON WAS THIRTY-THREE YEARS OLD when she killed her husband."
Ladies and gentlemen, that was delicious! So delicious in fact, that as soon as I finished, I had to read it again. That has never happened to me before. I will probably read it again at some point in the near future. It was that good. I just didn't want to let it go.

Amazing storiy from the start, I could not put it down. It was a wild right from the start and I had some scenarios going through my mind up to the end. Great original ending. Since I watch a lot of movies and series, this was one of my predicted endings. Good exciting read for the weekends!

so this book definitely held my attention since i read it pretty quickly and kept me guessing the whole time rather than being a too-easy to guess storyline so i guess that is good. it had a pretty twisted plot and ending - when the one of the main characters tells you they are as f'ed up as the other that is accused of being f'ed up, believe it! most of my thoughts are pretty spoilery so i guess i shouldnt say much else other than under spoiler cut.
