Kitty is an upper middle-class Londoner with a lot of money, a lot of righteous anger, and a lot of free time.
So it's only natural that her favorite hobby is murder.
Good enough writing, but a grim story overall.
Overly privileged girl who can't see that she is so entitled, she even thinks other people's lives are hers.
I like the overall weight it gives to the ever current crisis of violence against women, but Kitty was far too irritating and problematic herself to be a vigilante I could get behind, even imaginarily.
To be honest I think I would have DNF'd it if I wasn't listening to the audiobook while doing a big load of housework. It felt more inconvenient to switch books than to just finish this one once I had started.
Was it funny at times? Yes. But was it also disturbing and weirdly normalising of violent and murderous behaviour based on personal assumptions about someone's character? Also yes.
Not recommended.
