"I don’t really know how to go into detail about it; the story is so intense, and you’re not made to feel a certain way towards these characters. You see this mom who’s kind of a b—- and doesn’t really care about her youngest daughter, and you see this older sister who’s a b—-… especially at the end, you don’t really feel sorry for these people. I had a list of films that my theater teacher gave me, when I was about 14 or 15. One of the things he always told the class was you should be watching one film per week, to study other actors and study the language of film. Fat Girl just happened to be one of the films on the list."

The Flash - Season 3

In the end, The Flash Season Three is a study in wasted potential and playing to the strengths that built the show, as opposed to pushing the story, characters and actors in new and interesting directions.

Interesting character study and story told through this family's three different viewpoints during the mother's final weeks (months?) of life. I would have given it a four until the last "chapter" and had to drop my rating as I didn't care for the ending. I will give Holly Brown another go in the future.

Based upon the life of a Navy S.E.A.L sniper so deadly he became a target for insurgency, it's also a case study of dedication to duty and also the struggle maintaining a home and family and also the effects of war on the human psyche, the sniper elements are very interesting and the story is intelligently told.

I received this book from St. Martin's Press as an Advanced Reader's Copy. This book will be published on January 9, 2019 and I highly recommend you pick it up. The story centers around Jessica, a makeup artist in NYC. She stumbles into a "study" about morality and ethics where she becomes embroiled in a twisted relationship.
