3.5So, it was far more chicklitty than I was hoping for and not quite as sinister but I enjoyed it all the same.Liked Barr's style immediately and her well placed little non-obvious clues for the outcome. Would definitely consider another of her efforts.Its fair to say she created a right nut-job in Helen but was disappointed at the way she tried to gain the readers sympathy, I was happy to just think *PSYCHO* :)Serves as a reminder to all inept mothers out there....dont be cold to your kids, you will pay for it in the end! I'm not keen on reading books about people with mental illnesses as I feel a bit like I'm exploiting them for my reading pleasure (even though I know they're fictional. Maybe I sound a bit crazy, hmm). However, this is a great book. I thought it was a little nasty (okay, so your boyfriend leaves you because of XXXX, but do you really have to get XXXX with a XXXX?) in places - Barr really beats Liz and her life up - but the character of Helen was great. Totally believable and crazy and young.(The XXXs are so I don't ruin the plot for anyone who's not read it).
What do You think about Bedrieglijk (2010)?
wasn't a bad beach read, a little dark toward the end with a plot twist.

Thoroughly enjoyed it and wished afterwards that I had a sister!!

Not my favorite from her. Too oppressive and depressing...
