Raised by an abusive father, the younger and irresponsible sister finds herself incapable of having a relationship without murdering the man, and her duty bound elder sister feels resigned to helping clean up the mess, most literally. Somewhere between drama and black comedy, it’s a quick and fun read with a couple of memorable and well done characters.

This book flew by, Braithwaite's writing style is super engaging and its easy to connect with Korede and even to some degree empathize with said serial killer sister Ayoola. Ayoola has somewhat of a manic pixie dream girl vibe to her which mixed with serial killer made me think of Villanelle from "Killing Eve".
What I really liked about this book was the comment on how these men just want Ayoola for her pretty face and it doesn't really matter about what's going on with her internally. Even Tade the character framed by Korede as being the ideal guy falls into the same trope.
Another question the book brings up is who is more at fault, Ayoola the girl committing the murders but clearly isn't right in the head or Korede who knowing it's wrong covers up her sister's mistakes time and time again. As someone with a sister its easy for me to understand the unconditional love that comes with that bond but I don't know if I could go along with her killing people. Braithwaite does a great job with subverting the serial killer thriller genre.
Now what I didn't like was this book I know was short but at the same time it didn't seem like it fully came to a head. The climax fell flat for me. I wish that we got more of what was going on with their father because that part of the narrative didn't feel fully developed.
Overall I would recommend this book because I think that it was a pretty decent story and the characters were interesting and well written and it is a quick read.
Really awesome to see more Nigerian writers entering the main stream.

Quick, engrossing read about a twisted relationship between sisters. It was a fun book for a day in!

Dark and quick read.

Where does loyalty end when it comes to family? Is murder or several murders an ending to a relationship? Should family always back family up?

With dark humor and a unique premise, this quick read is both disturbing and fascinating. Korede’s honest examination of her sister, and how she came to be what she is, will immerse readers in her moral dilemma. Addictive and surprisingly relevant, this debut novel might appeal to readers of psychological suspense.

Very fast read. Predictable tropes but satisfying. Recommend!

I appreciated the unusual plot premise, the careful unfolding of backstory, the setting details, and introspective but humorous narration. I struggled to understand the narrator's response to the string of murders until the last few illuminating chapters and was left contemplating my own sibling relationships. Overall a quick and fun read.

Short yet disturbing novel. It has only 223 pages hence can finish in a day. As name suggests it’s about a lady one who kills her boyfriends . She is loved and protected by her sisTer. Good easy reading. It was so interesting I could not keep book aside.

A compelling read that uses unusual circumstances to look at the relationship between sisters.

Short, slight and light. I do not know why this book is on the Booker long list.
