My Sister, The Serial Killer - Oyinkan Braithwaite

Fiction

Rating: 7/10

Being the older, less pretty, sister of a woman who has developed a nasty habit of dispatching her boyfriends with aplomb can’t be easy. That’s a cleaning crew one doesn’t really want to be on call for.

Told with a satirical slant by a stoic narrator, this book makes the implausible entirely plausible. Ultimately a story of sisters, the author puts strain on their bond to try and find the breaking point. At times you may ask yourself which of the two is really the ruthless one.

Footnote:With a title like this, how could I resist giving this book a try? Glad I did!
