Welcome to Litsy!

I was a bit disappointed with this, because I loved Leave The World Behind. Brooke starts working for a billionaire who wants to give away all his money before he dies, but she starts to become more greedy for herself.

Brooke, and her mother, were both awful people but I quite like books with terrible characters and the book certainly made me think.

What nearly turned it into a so-so for me was the nothing ending - it just fizzled out.

Lunch has been consumed. Errands have been run. Now it‘s time to hit the books.

Started this one on my lunch break today but it‘s not horror/thriller so I‘m considering putting this one to the side and keeping on with my Spooky TBR.

I never read the book, but I enjoyed the movie Crazy Rich Asians. This book is by that same author. It was interesting, but so pretentious. I don‘t hail from old money, or new money either, and all the name dropping doesn‘t mean a thing to me so that part was annoying.

Idealistic, altruistic Brooke starts working for a billionaire‘s foundation to work toward giving away his wealth. But as she delves into the job, she starts to change and not for the better. I really liked this, though I‘m not sure what I think of the ending, which seemed a little lackluster.

Does this count for orange in the book cover scavenger hunt?
