Book Review: "This Girl's A Killer" by Emma C. Wells

This was a wild read! When I heard that the main character was being called a female Dexter, I knew I had to pick this up, and I was utterly hooked.

Cordelia is a successful pharmaceutical sales rep who knows how to manipulate the system. She’s beautiful, fashionable, ambitious, and loved by her best friend Diane and her goddaughter, Samantha.

She’s also a killer. She’s made it her job to get rid of sexual predators and pedophiles who cross her path. She doesn’t consider it murder; to her, it’s karma.

“Once upon a time, I’d been a broken girl, unable to protect herself from the scary things. Now, I was the scary thing.”

But when things at work start going awry and she realizes her foolproof plan for getting rid of monsters isn’t quite foolproof, her attention to detail starts slipping. And when Diane starts dating a man that rubs Cordelia the wrong way, she starts to worry that her perfectly managed life may fall apart.

Although the book gets a bit graphic at times, it’s more about the chaos around Cordelia than the murderous acts. As the walls start closing in, the suspense and tension increase, and I couldn’t wait to see how Emma C. Wells tied everything up. What a great character and a great book!
