"Before, she didn't know how much effort killing really took. How people struggled even when it was hopeless, how long it took to asphyxiate someone. How annoying blood stains are."
But Kitty Collins knows better now - she knows how to kill men and how to get away with it. On the surface, she's a successful influencer living in a trendy part of London with plenty of family wealth - but she loathes every single moment of it, just dying to find something to give meaning to her empty days.
The first kill was an accident. A drunken, violent man who didn't even treat her like a human. She didn't mean to kill him. But she is sick and tired of men, of the world they've created to hurt and kill women without being held accountable. Not the abusers, the rapists, not even the stalker commenting death threats on her photos. None of them face the consequences of their actions.
But they will now, she's going to make sure of it.
"Nothing happens and this is not a horror movie. It's worse."
This story exploded into gory gloriousness right from the first few pages - setting the an obsessive pace from the start and never letting go for a moment. There's a jarring contrast between the gentle, seemingly peaceful existence of Kitty and the explosive action and deep cuts before returning to a gentle, anxious calm that leaves you riddled with anxiety and waiting for the next bomb to drop.
On the surface, Kitty is the kind of person I'd never approach or befriend - but underneath she's a firestorm - fierce and furious about the utter absurdity of modern life, about abandonment and trauma, about the abuse of women and about our unobtainable pursuit of perfection. She's complex - confused and hypocritical but also aware of it. She's a vegan, who obtained wealth from a family slaughter business, a feminist who promotes diet drinks on Instagram, an influencer who can't stand social media.
Slowly, Kitty morphs into a fully realised person in front of our eyes -and although it's weird to say I could relate to a killer, I can't say it's not crossed by mind every time I've had to hold my keys between my fingers or order an angel shot.
The twists just kept coming and got darker and more terrifying each time - and every time Kitty upped her body count I got chills down my spine. The tension throughout was delicious - I was desperate to know more about this murderess, she was almost intoxicating as she kept us firmly between blurred lines - between revenge and retribution, between right and wrong, between hero and villain.
Full of bloody revenge, hilariously witty humour and very unexpected moments of clarity - Katy Brent KILLED IT.
