Gangster Girl.enjoyable listen, a bit far fetched
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Very entertaining book... well narrated and keeps you gripped throughout the two parts. Storyline starts well then gets a bit daft as the author starts to try and connects too many dots, which starts to become too coincidental, unrealistic and predictable.
Still worth a listen
