I enjoyed this book like I do most of her books! I was happy that this one was interesting and kept me guessing all the way through but didn't noleave me traumatized at the end like some of her others! 

Definitely recommend if you like complicated friend drama!

SYNOPSIS:
  • Kiersten, Whitney, Jade, Brooke, Natasha, Taylor, & Colleen are all part of a boogie Mom’s Club in West Hollywood.
  • Kiersten drowns in the pool, while hosting a party for the Club. Was it an accidental drowning, or was this a murder?

MY THOUGHTS
  • Lucinda Berry is my girrrrrl & I love her books👏🏼
  • Multiple POVs + alternating timelines (past & presents)
  • Lots of twists & layers 
  • Fast paced & didn’t want to put it down
  • Some of it was a little unbelievable, but it didn’t bother me
  • Satisfying ending 
  • Although some of the characters weren’t likable, they were still well written
  • Only negative was the use of the phrase “omigod” constantly by all the characters
  • Love a neighborhood suspense/drama filled with secrets & twists 

TL;DR: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Wealthy moms in neighborhood suspense. Well written & fast-paced. Finished in 2 days.

Thanks to Thomas & Mercer and Netgalley for this digital ARC in exchange for an honest review. It will be published on November 7, 2023.
