Book Review: This Girl’s A Killer

Can I just say that you don’t need many friends in this life, that you only need the ones who truly matter? And I think Cordelia Black belongs to the latter category. I need a friend like her in my life. Thank heavens for allowing me to encounter This Girl’s a Killer in Netgalley.

For one, that cover alone is enough to make me question myself whether or not I’m making the right choice when I requested this from Netgalley. Soft Core is some sort of a diary written by a half-lucid person slash slice-of-life novel. Months ago, I was able to finish Elodie Harper’s Wolf Den which revolves around the lives of prostitute girls back in the 1800s. It was a journey that I enjoyed a lot and something that…
