Week 35 Review: My Flawless Life

From Goodreads:
Yvonne Woon, author of If You, Then Me, has crafted a slow-burn thriller about fixing--our friends, ourselves, and our complicated pasts. For fans of Allegedly and We Were Liars, My Flawless Life features a compelling narrator who grapples with the secrets of her private school classmates as well as her own life.

At the most elite private school in Washington, DC., whenever anyone has a problem that they need to go away, they hire Hana Yang Lerner.

Hana is a fixer. She knows who to call, what to say, and how to make sure secrets stay where they belong--buried. She can fix anything. Except her own life, which was destroyed when her father, senator Skip Lerner, was arrested for an accident that left one woman nearly dead.

Now Hana's reputation is ruined and her friends are gone. So when she gets a job from an anonymous client called "Three" to follow her former best friend, Luce Herrera, Hana realizes this might be her way of getting back her old life.

But the dangerous thing about digging is that you never know what you'll unearth. As Hana uncovers a dark truth about her supposedly flawless classmates, she's forced to face a secret of her own.

My Review:
I had such a great time reading this book! I didn't know when I got the book that it was by the same author as the Beautiful Dead series which I absolutely loved, but if I'd known I definitely would've picked this one up sooner! I had such a great time with this story!

Hana is a fixer, she helps situations in the way that her clients want, making connections, keeping certain information quiet, things like that. Then she gets hired to look into her former friend's life, and things get pretty wild! 

This whole situation where she's the daughter of a former senator, who committed a hit and run, and lost his job, and her life has almost fully changed, but she's still going to the same school, yeah, that was pretty rough. And oh, the twist? That was fantastic! 

This story was full of twists and turns and reveals, especially a few that I didn't think to even question, which were really well done! And where it went, yeah, it was so fantastic, I loved following along Hana's investigation! The consequences that came up, where utterly justifiable and I'm happy with where the story ended. 

Loved reading this book and I can't wait to read more by Yvonne Woon!
