The book jumps back and forth between Evie as a kid and an adult. She calls herself the baddest girl on the planet when she is young! She goes through a lot of ups and downs and the character development was good. However, this book didn’t work for me. I enjoyed the beginning and thought it had great potential, but for me it felt too choppy in places and her being best friends with Mike Tyson is what causes her to “bad” was just silly to me.

I would totally recommend if you enjoy character driven books regarding the life she leads.… (plus d'informations)

I received an ARC from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. My thoughts and opinions are my own. Any quotes I use are from an unpublished copy and may not reflect the finished product.

Basically, the main character is a terrible person. The flashbacks to her childhood weren't any better, and after a while I got really bored with the story. I'm not sure how she's supposed to be the "baddest" girl on the planet, because all I saw was a petty, jealous adult. She didn't want to be in her marriage, so she self-destructs. She also didn't seem to care about being a mom, and I hated her indifference towards her child.

Also, a strange man touching you without your permission is definitely something that should "weird you out." Why did it matter that it was her hips instead of her breasts? UGH. She made some comment about people always looking at her boobs, and her friend explained that this guy being attracted to something else on her body was a cultural thing. Seriously, UGH.

She was unlikable in the past and in the present (which I feel terrible saying since she's only a child in the flashbacks), so I stopped reading this one on page 67. I really tried to push through thinking it would get better, but it just wasn't for me. (★★☆☆☆)
