HOW TO KILL YOUR FAMILY BY BELLA MACKIE

HOW TO KILL YOUR FAMILY BY BELLA MACKIE

A couple weeks ago I liked a romance book.

That surprised me because THIS kind of book is more my jam.
Smart, sassy, a touch dark.
Books with lines like this describing a 20-something influencer type: "...she spends fifteen minutes at 7 p.m., nightly answering hard-hitting questions from fans like 'how is your hair so shiny' which she answers with the intensity and seriousness of someone testifying at a war crimes tribunal."

This is the one about Grace Bernard whose life goals to-do list is repeated on the back cover: kill my family, make a claim on their fortune, get away with the above, and adopt a dog.

For context, Grace doesn't really know her family. Her father is a wealthy, London playboy who deserted Grace's mother as a young, pregnant woman and left her to raise their daughter alone. Now an adult, Grace tracks him and his own family down, killing them one-by-one, leaving her father for her coup de grace. (kind of an ironic term)

If you like dark and funny, you'll like this.
