I see Jody’s eyes widen at the mention of the Moore sisters, but I don’t give her any more details. I look down

The whole premise of this book is so misogynistic. This never happens in real life. Women are portrayed as weak gullible creatures to be preyed on by other women in this case. It's exhausting and offensive. The lead character is so codependent, that it is unreal

I have other things to look forward to: Cassandra and Jane suggested we grab dinner one night next week.

If you really want a makeover, you’ve got to let us help! Jane and I live for this stuff, Cassandra had told me. I totally see you in this color, Jane had said, handing me a tear sheet of a model in a shampoo ad to give to the hairstylist—the one the

Moore sisters brought me to. Cassandra had asked him to shape my eyebrows, too. When I’d mentioned I’d been toying with the idea of contact lenses, they’d squealed, Do it!—and pushed me to book an appointment. They knew Amanda so well. Could it simply be a coincidence that all of their suggestions make me look more like their dead friend? Even if it wasn’t their intention, they must see it. Amanda’s style does suit me; I know I look better now. Just as her apartment is perfect for me. So why are my hands shaking? I cancel my appointment with the lawyer, eating the $260 fee.

Jane slips the photo between the pages of Shay’s Data Book, which is at the foot of the futon. Jane opens the closet door. “Nothing here either.” “Should we look in her creepy notebook to see if she wrote anything recently?” suggests Cassandra. Jane grabs it and begins flipping the pages. The picture flutters out. Jody bends down to retrieve it. Cassandra holds her breath. Both sisters stare as Jody looks at the photograph of Amanda on the High Line, wearing a straw hat and tilting up her chin.
