An electric binge-of-a-debut about an antihero who seeks revenge on her ex-situationship with a hex, only for him to actually, literally die.

Lillian and Henry have been enjoying each other’s company, particularly in bed. Even though Lillian’s best (and only) friend calls it a “situationship,” Lillian knows better. And she has a plan to lock Henry down. She’ll be the best, most accommodating version of herself until he falls in love with her. But when Henry blindsides Lillian with a breakup instead of a love declaration, Lillian is left with no choice but to exact revenge with a hex.

Lillian expects Henry to grovel and come crawling back to her. What she doesn’t anticipate is becoming a prime suspect in his murder case when he’s found dead.

Desperate to control the narrative, clear her name, and assume her rightful place as Henry’s mourning girlfriend, Lillian’s pursuit of the truth will throw her into a dangerous tailspin, which may just upend her life for good.

A deliciously addictive novel that explores our darkest, most human impulses, A Good Person heralds Kirsten King as a striking new voice in fiction.

Engaging, witty and fun

Omg the main character you just love to hate, but u can’t look away. I saw this book in hardcover at my local bookstore but ultimately decided to get it on audible and I wasn’t disappointed. I like the writing style too

Unapologetically Delusional!

You’ll laugh out loud while cringing. Lillian is a walking, breathing, train wreck who will keep you glued to the pages. This is Sally’s best yet!

Loved it!

Great narrator! Great story inside a sick mind that is also pretty hysterical. Several parts were laugh out loud but then also concerning and sad.

SURPRISED

This book made me laugh out loud 🤣. Definitely recommend reading it. I want more books by this author.

Insufferably delightful

For all my weird girl lit insuffffferable narrator loving girlies, this one is for you.
