There is a reversal of fortunes as Verity's stepfather turns out to be an embezzler and is seriously violent towards Verity. Verity and her mother need a roof over their heads and move in with an aunt. Ruby comes to find herself loved and cared for the first time in her life when she is sent to Devon to live with Wilby. Additionally, Ruby finds herself romantically involved and is happy. Verity and Ruby retain their friendship through letters and visits. They exchange confidences and secrets and cannot imagine their lives without each other. Until Verity finds herself in the position where she feels she has no choice but to betray Ruby. This leads Ruby to express the title of this book in a letter, you are dead to me, to Verity. With Britain being torn apart by war, will the two survive to be able reconcile? I did some cool things with both gender and genre. I love how the relationship between the sisters turned out. The plotting is tight. There's this scene between approximately pgs. 215-230 that is excellent. And I totally nailed the last line.

Except, Annie Gates is barely alive, almost comatose, as she lies on the hospital bed, with no one but her younger sister Alice Gates beside her. And Alice, though relieved at her sister’s presence in her life after four long years, is afraid but ready to know who put her sister in this state. I find myself reading this based on some excerpts I saw on TikTok...ghost smut? I'm intrigued. And it's on KindleUnlimited. And there starts her journey, where she navigates Hollywood and its web of lies, deceit and betrayal to bring justice to her sister. There’s the slightly psychotic Roman soldier who loves the Great British Bake Off, the bossy, aristocratic royal prince who demands the finer things in life (er, death), and the blind Victorian gentleman adventurer who doesn’t have a mean bone in his body (or any bones, for that matter).

Clearly, Annie had been wronged and I’m aware that she went through some unimaginably hard times, but I still detested her for Alice’s sake. She didn’t want Alice mixed up in her new life because of the danger it posed, but it was because of her that Alice was left so vulnerable. Annie was trying to protect Alice but she forgot that Alice needed a sister’s love more, and I guess I hated Annie for this. NOMINATIONS ANNOUNCED FOR THE 26TH ANNUAL SCREEN ACTORS GUILD AWARDS".

I didn't know going into it it was set in "old Hollywood," and had trouble situating myself in it throughout the story. The story itself read much more modern and didn't seem to have much to do with the time period other than a few scattered references to mystery novelists (?) that I had never heard of. The focus on the action was part of that I think, and perhaps if McCoy had stopped once in a while to give a little more description (I mean, how fun would it be to write about old Hollywood?!), that would have helped.

Jen and Judy have placed Steve's corpse in the freezer in Jen's garage, and argue over what to do with it after discovering rats are trying to chew their way in. Judy wants to dispose of the body in a respectful way, while Jen immediately jumps to dissolving it with industrial-strength drain cleaner. The two ultimately decide to bury the body in the Angeles National Forest in the middle of the night. They are ridiculous, annoying, complete drama queens, behaving in ways that make them seem unintelligent, constantly causing problems like children, but we are supposed to consider them ‘hot’. ??? Ruby's mother was a prostitute who left Ruby to fend for herself, and the only way Ruby CAN fend for herself day to day, is to steal to put food on the table. Let me start with the fact that I did love this book, it was exactly what i wanted, twists and turns etc, however I don't think it's as good as some of her others (will explain why soon) hence why I have given four stars instead of five.Linda Cardellini as Judy Hale, a woman Jen meets at a grief support group who befriends her; she is the hit-and-run driver After disposing of Steve's body, Jen and Judy book into a lavish hotel on the weekend of a wedding. There, the two spot Karen's husband, Jeff, having an affair with another man. Judy is having trouble emotionally processing Steve's death, so Jen gives them the opportunity to open up emotionally, and for Judy to mourn Steve properly. Upon returning home, Jen and Judy learn that the bird Henry believed to be his reincarnated father is dead. At the storage unit, Charlie discovers Steve's car and believes it is a birthday present from Jen. I could go on and on about this book and I truly loved ever moment of it. Steffanie Holmes is a new favorite of mine and I’m already halfway threw book two and can not wait to read her other series after this. I didn’t even mention one of the best parts. One of the ghosts is actually blind and there is a great discussion in the book about ablism and just because you die doesn’t mean you should immediately be fixed as a ghost and no longer have your disabilities you had in life which honestly loved to see it said. One of the authors other series that had overlap in this one which I plan to read next the fmc is also blind and after reading up on the authors bio and her experience with her eye conditions and how she interpreters the world and how instead of descriptions in her book we get a lot of noise breakdowns and smell profiles because that’s how she sees her world now was such a new experience that I didn’t even realize as I read the first one that was the reason behind it I just found it to be a really wonderfully immersive experience but now knowing the reason I love it even more. The FMC supposedly has been seeing and interacting with ghosts since she was 6, but still doesn’t know how to do so subtley. Instead draws as much attention as possible, and complains about the results. 🤨
