Not a spoiler as this is pretty obvious from the start, but the girls are NOT nice here at all 😂

This was about two former best friends who reunite at their college reunion, to find they are being harassed by a mystery person about something they did ten years ago, and that person will stop at nothing to get their revenge.

There are dual timelines; the present with the girls at the reunion, and the past revealing their time at college and what they have done that was so bad. These timelines worked really well together and I loved how the background was revealed as we went along. It was a little slow to start but once it built up it packed a punch.

I quite enjoyed this, it did not have many likeable characters at all but that was the point! Full of toxic and complex friendships, and the ultimate definition of mean girls. This was from a different perspective than usual as the main character actually is one of those mean girls and we get to see her shocking behaviour through her own eyes.

This is a disturbing and powerful read that makes you realise how the actions of one person can have such a strong impact on the lives of others. The ending and the twist wrapped things up nicely and I did not see that one coming!
