why was the killer known as the Beauty Killer prior to Gretchen turning herself in and everyone seeing how beautiful she was? I just read Kill You Twice and now just started the first one and it's been bugging me. Just curious.

What do you think the title means in relation to the plot of this book?

I can’t for the life of me remember Gretchen’s backstory.. I feel like the book explained it (I vaguely remember something about her doctor tying her tubes when she was really young?) I’m in the second book now and this comes in to play and I can’t remember what had happened because I read the first book so long ago. Can someone explain what happened in Gretchen’s past?

Sooo I just finished this book and I loved it, but I need to know if Susan and Archie get together in some of the other books in the series? because that's gonna be a dealbreaker for me
