What a brilliant book and so very well written. The plot is superb, the characters excellent and I assure you this book will keep you gripped all the way through. I would highly recommend this book.

Loved the twists in this story, couldn’t put it down as I just wanted to find out what happens!

Thank you to NetGalley.com and the publisher for an Advanced Reader Copy of this book in exchange for my honest thoughts and opinions
I think I was the last one on earth to know that Jane Fallon is the better half to Ricky Gervais. I’m going to crawl back under the rock I’ve clearly been under but can I take this book with me to read again? I felt an instant kinship with this book – been there, definitely had that happen. My on and off high school love neglected to tell me that he moved in with my best friend (and both claimed they absolutely hated the other) when I went off to college. I never had the guts (or ability – it was 1989 people) to pull off some of the stunts of Amy & Kat but I did end up screaming at him for about 3 hours in a small bathroom and then cut both out of my life and never looked back.
What I loved: I love how calm Amy is during this who thing. She plays an excellent long game and needs to be amply rewarded for her efforts. Of course some will say that she shouldn’t have done the things she did against Jack & Melissa – that’s not being nice, that’s not empowering women, blah blah blah. Let me know how you feel when it happens to you. In the mean time – suck it.
What I didn’t love: My only critique is that towards the end – when it goes from one character’s perspective to the next? I would have liked some Italics/font change/something to differentiate since I was totally thrown by the plot twist and had to re-read a few sentences more than once.
What I learned: Girl code – some people need refresher courses.
Overall Grade: B+

Thank you netgalley and the publishers for this arc in exchange for my honest review.

Amy has it all, a fabulous acting job in New York. Her fiancée, Jack and her best friend, Mel, support her and adore her. Everything is perfect until she arrives home as a surprise to find another woman's stuff in her house and then deduces it's her best friend who has betrayed her.

Amy sets out to sort her life out ready to go solo with the help of her friend, Kat, and destroy Jack and Mel in the process.

I love Jane's books and this was a brilliant read which had me glued to my kindle at every spare moment. Jane makes all her characters believeable and you root for the good guy all the way!!
