Should have taken notes as I went along but anyway

A few thoughts that have stayed

• Easy entertaining read
• Plot a little predictable- what with an illegitimate daughter avenging her mother who was wronged at the hands of an elite family
• Reminiscent of Baazigar- elements of revenge against a family, anti-heroine
• But the book's highlight is its protagonist and narration, through and through
• Grace carries the weight of the story on her very able shoulders
• Her character - perfectly written
• Her sarcastic observations/observations commentary spare no one and nothing
• Capitalism, social media, patriarchy, performative feminism, performative socialism, education system, prison system, human nature
• How she keeps herself detached from everything else by maintaining a sense of superiority/disdain - all so she could devote all her energies towards carrying out her plan
• We get to know about other characters only through her perspective- though to her credit, she gives detailed background analysis of all the family members before offing them
• Laughed out loud at how she justified killing off her grandparents
• The schemes she devised to kill her uncle and Simon's wife- pretty interesting
• The end bothered me a little- the thing about a man taking undue advantage of all of Grace's efforts
• It was unsatisfying- would have loved to see her get away with all of it with her inheritance money
• This book is gatekeep, gaslight, girlboss personified
