This one is going to do so well I think.
It's a great read about friendship, devotion and obsession.
Louise is an interesting character, not able to always read people and how to act with them, she already seems to be struggling a little. Lucky she met Cat then.
It gets a little uncomfortable at times, but that just makes it all the better to read.
Cracking story.

4.5 🌟 Thrilling, seductive, toxic, wild; Venus Fly Trap was brilliant!

After reading the blurb, I was intrigued but didn't realise just how hooked this would have me until we delved deeper and darker into the storyline.

I found myself just as sucked in by Cat to begin with, and it was only as things progressed that I found myself thinking,' Hang on. This may not end the way I was expecting it, too!' 😅 She was such a master manipulater and really played on Louise's vulnerable side!

The reason this wasn't a 5 star read for me was because I don't really like 'open endings.' Nothing to do with the author. It was actually a really clever way to finish. But my stressed out brain can not STAND not knowing exactly what happened.. even though I'm pretty sure I can take a wild guess!

This was ok but I'm afraid I got bored at 30% as it felt like a book that mashed up lots of old tropes from Single White Female to all those books where someone has to be murdered for the most spurious reasons. A writing tic that jarred is everyone is constantly winking - I don't think I've ever seen anyone wink in real life and it kept pushing me out of the story.
