Book Overview

ONE OF TIME MAGAZINE'S 100 BEST MYSTERY AND THRILLER BOOKS OF ALL TIME - BOOKER PRIZE NOMINEE - "A taut and darkly funny contemporary noir that moves at lightning speed, it's the wittiest and most fun murder party you've ever been invited to." --MARIE CLAIRE

Korede's sister Ayoola is many things: the favorite child, the beautiful one, possibly sociopathic. And now Ayoola's third boyfriend in a row is dead, stabbed through the heart with Ayoola's knife.

Korede's practicality is the sisters' saving grace. She knows the best solutions for cleaning blood (bleach, bleach, and more bleach), the best way to move a body (wrap it in sheets like a mummy), and she keeps Ayoola from posting pictures to Instagram when she should be mourning her "missing" boyfriend. Not that she gets any credit.

Korede has long been in love with a kind, handsome doctor at the hospital where she works. She dreams of the day when he will realize that she's exactly what he needs. But when he asks Korede for Ayoola's phone number, she must reckon with what her sister has become and how far she's willing to go to protect her.

Breezy yet substantive

Published by Anna , 1 month ago

A nice short read but one that makes you think about family responsibility, trauma, and friendship.

Fun but short

I really enjoyed this book and the narrator was great, but it all felt very rushed and abrupt. Still, a fun short read.

So much fun! 6/5 Stars!

I loved this entire book. The only problem I had with it was that it wasn’t long enough, haha! It was so fun reading a thriller book that wasn’t coated in Whiteness. I enjoyed taking a moment and looking up the occasional words I wasn’t familiar with. Learning new things regarding Nigerian culture along with some amazing writing.. *chefs kiss* loved it. Book came as described, will read again!
