I fell into Honey and haven’t crawled out yet. It’s a book I need other people to read so I can talk about it with. I would love to read it with a book club! Keep reading this book review of Honey for my full thoughts.
Summary
The first time, Yrsa doesn’t intend to kill.
But the Cambridge professor sitting opposite has manipulated her friend, stolen her research. When she flicks the bee into his Sanpellegrino, she thinks he’ll get a nasty sting.
Then he’s dead. And Yrsa, who – let’s face it – has been bored for a while, is alive.
It’s a sweet feeling, finally having some control.
Review
(Disclaimer: I received this book from the publisher. This has not impacted my review which is unbiased and honest.)
Honey is a mistake that turns deadly and turns into a habit. An adrenaline rush, a warped sense of justice, a way to right the scales. It’s a taste of justice, a thrill of the second, a moment of waiting that turns into a transformation. With passages of academia which brought me back to my roots, I fell into Honey and couldn’t stop reading. The obvious question about how long this can go on is forgotten as we get sucked into her orbit. The negotiation, the ways in which we navigate who deserved what, and it has a Promising Young Woman vibe to it.

Honey is a fast paced and thrilling book. Bring on more of the serial killer books. I need more books which have intrigued my brain and my gut. Don’t even get me started on that ending. Honey is meant to be read and discussed, turned over and sat with. Find Honey on Goodreads, Storygraph, Bookshop. org, Blackwells, & Libro. fm.
