Kindle Notes & Highlights
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.
Getting weary of this sick dependent behavior when there has been no compelling evidence that the sisters are charming. That is how women talk in general. Showing concern or even faking it. Don't understand why these two are special and makes the lead character fall head over heels
“Promise us you’ll use it all,” Jane says. “Especially the purse. There’s no point in having a beautiful bag just hanging in your closet.” “Don’t be afraid to carry it all the time,” Cassandra adds. “This is your new everyday purse.”
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.

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.
Who knows what atrocities she can guide her sisters and the other women to avenge in the future? Ever since the three sisters reunited, Valerie has been a powerful stealth influencer, shepherding Cassandra and Jane in an exciting new direction. Valerie is the invisible architect of every act of vengeance their larger group has perpetrated. After being alone for so long, she relishes having her sisters by her side.
I thought i was wrong in this bsing misogynitic. But this proves that it definitely is. The premise is stupid. The whole thing is so flimsy that it is held together by far fetched idea threads
