About this listen

'A whip-smart whodunnit, this will keep you guessing' Red

'A fast-paced thriller with clever twists' Bella

Something bad happened last night. My best friend Posey is dead. The police think it was a tragic accident. I know she was murdered.

I’ve woken up with the hangover from hell, a stranger in my bed, and I’ve gone viral for the worst reasons.

There’s only one thing stopping me from dying of shame. I need to find a killer.

But after last night, I can’t remember a thing…

From the author of How to Kill Men and Get Away With It, don’t miss this wickedly witty and utterly addictive novel, perfect for fans of Bella Mackie, Dawn O’Porter and Killing Eve.

Story great about how slow did the lady read

I listened at 2.30x and the lady was still reading SLOW AF! And you can hear page turning her swallowing. Geez. Great sad story though

Can’t stop listening

One of the best books I’ve listened to lately. I’m getting Katy’s first book after this one. I really enjoyed the layers of the story and dark humor mixed in.

Not for me

I found the story sadly predictable. The main character repeats and repeats herself, which just drew out the book.

But for me the narration ruined it. At first, I appreciated her theatrics and dramatization, but after the second chapter, it became irritating. Not every sentence needed a gulp, a sigh or a choked with tears embellishment. I would give this book a miss.

There seems to also be a glitch with the ratings.
