Publisher's summary

In her fantastically fun new series, Ellis' debut novel introduces a Kardashian-style family of money-hungry women who are determined to have it all. Over three generations, the Gibbons women of Chesterton have built their reputation as a family of shameless - but refined - gold diggers. But now one of them is abandoning the tradition.

Ok

I really liked this book and would recommend this book. I wish this author didn't use God's name in vain. You don't have to use " GD " to have a great book. If not for that I would have given it 5 stars. I wish this book was a movie or TV show. The couple was great together and I would like to hear their mother's story. Also I like for the book cover to match the description of the characters and the lady on the cover hair was longer than shoulder length and that was how Lauren hair was described. I wish the narrator had a deeper voice for Cris.

This book was okay

This book started off very slow & seemed dragged on but it was good. This is one of those books you will have to get into. It'll take a while but once you're into it you'll find it interesting. I love the ending although the story book ending is so cliche. It was nice.

Boring

I tried. I skipped through some parts looking for the “good part”. I never found it. It had potential. The narrators voice annoyed me as well. I’m sorry I just didn’t like it 😑
