Summary

Soon to be a major TV series starring Ella Purnell

The last person who called me ‘Sweetpea’ ended up dead…

Rhiannon is your average girl next door, settled with her boyfriend and little dog…but she’s got a killer secret.

By day her job as an editorial assistant is demeaning and unsatisfying. By evening she dutifully listens to her friend’s plans for marriage and babies whilst secretly making a list.

A kill list.

From the man on the checkout who always mishandles her apples, to the driver who cuts her off on her way to work, to the people who have got it coming, Rhiannon’s ready to get her revenge.

Because the girl everyone overlooks might be able to get away with murder…

I really enjoyed this, very different .....

I wasn't always in the mood for all the anger, hatred and effing and jeffing that constantly poured out, but other times it made me laugh out loud. It's definitely worth a listen, the narrator is fabulous, a very different take on crime!

A binge listen

Loved this. My first audible binge listen! Narration was great and the plot enthralling. Highly recommend if you want a light hearted listen with added spice.

Best listen in a long time - I was gripped

Couldn't switch off, as audible books go the description of a mix between American Phsycho and Fleabag is absolutely spot on.
Rhiannon is a very likeable if very worrying character, you find out more about why she is the way us slowly as the book develops and you learn about the events that made her the way she is.
Does she deserve s happy ending? Will she get one? you'll have to listen to the very last sentence..

Excellent narrator!

I think the narrator can make or break a book and this one was amazing. The story is fabulous too. Well worth a listen.

strangely compelling

I wasn't sure if it was my kind of book, however I could not stop listening, hence my title of strangely compelling. The narrator was excellent.

loved this more than my sister the serial killer

although it had me laughing out loud in public and thinking oh dear I think that (about the annoying people not the other stuff!) which made me worry for my own sanity, also I like silvanians and am a grown woman so...

Loved it

Sometimes I just wanted to stop listening but I couldn't! The ending was a bit weak though. All round a very good listen, brilliantly narrated.

Loved it!

Not for the faint-hearted, this was gruesome and funny in equal measure. Excellent narration from one of my favourites. Would highly recommend.

Just call me the psychopath sympathiser!

I love Rhiannon, she is everything you could want in a serial killer. Read it and find out what I mean. I wrote a longer more detailed review and then it disappeared and I can't be bothered to do it again. Thanks Audible!
