About this listen

HUSTLERS meets BIG LITTLE LIES in the heist of the summerA NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER‘Propulsive and captivating’ Vogue‘Darkly comedic’ Daily Mail

Meet Ava: rule-abiding lawyer who has ticked all of life’s boxes. She’s married to a successful surgeon and has just taken an indefinite career break to raise her adorable toddler. A picture-perfect life.

Meet Winnie: Ava’s old college roommate. Once awkward, quiet and apparently academically challenged, she left Stanford in a shroud of scandal. But now, she is charismatic, wealthy and has returned to town dripping in designer accessories. An actual perfect life.

When the two women bump into one another at a local coffee shop, it seems like fate has intervened: Winnie’s new-found success is courtesy of a shady business and she needs a favour; Ava is realising she is not built for the stay-at-home life. But what starts as one favour turns into two, then three, and soon Ava is in far deeper than she ever imagined.

Now Ava has to make the ultimate decision: cut and run, or risk it all?

Great speaker. Very quick enjoyable listen. I didn’t particularly warm to any characters though. Also story wasn’t gripping enough.

I think this book was wasted on me as l don’t know a LV from a Sainsbury carrier bag but it doesn’t hi light the obscene conditions children work in to satisfy greedy rich women. It’s all just a food chain!

If you love handbags this book is for you!

Great story with twists and easy listening

Such an unexpected twist halfway, I loved it! It’s also a story of model minority syndrome interlaced with a larger conversation about what it means to be successful in this system. Really enjoyed it, finished it in two days.

Such an unexpected twist!

interesting story with a few twists and turns. Likeable characters and very tongue in cheek at times. Short and therefore not deep, but enjoyable.
