genre: mystery
Virginia's life is centered about her highly visible side hustle - she's a Jill, an NFL cheerleader for the Buffalo Bills. If it paid enough to be a full-time job, that would be amazing. But honestly, she's in it for both her love of dance and for the camaraderie of the other Jills. So, when her bestie doesn't show up to practice, it's really unusual. Jill standards are HIGH. Soon Viriginia is more than concerned - she KNOWS something is wrong. And she's determined to figure it out.
Okay. There is A LOT going on here. Stuff that is a bit hard to believe, if I'm honest. It's a fast read, the writing isn't bad at all. But Virginia's connections to the criminal underground just really required me to suspend my disbelief. Virginia's home life and family relationships loom really large and are a major thread, I did actually like that. It felt more grounded in a reality I could believe. The mystery was twisty enough and I can imagine that if you are from Buffalo or a fan of the Bills, this might be even more fun for you. I was entertained but can't really give it more than 3 stars.
