Title: My Sister, the Serial Killer Pdf A Novel
"Feverishly hot." (Paula Hawkins)
"The wittiest and most fun murder party you've ever been invited to." (Marie Claire)
"Pulpy, peppery and sinister, served up in a comic deadpan...This scorpion-tailed little thriller leaves a response, and a sting, you will remember." (The New York Times)
A short, darkly funny hand grenade of a novel about a Nigerian woman whose younger sister has a very inconvenient habit of killing her boyfriends.
"Femi makes three, you know. Three and they label you a serial killer."
Korede is bitter. How could she not be? Her sister, Ayoola, is many things: the favorite child, the beautiful one, possibly sociopathic. And now Ayoola's third boyfriend in a row is dead.
Korede's practicality is the sisters' saving grace. She knows the best solutions for cleaning blood, the trunk of her car is big enough for a body, and she keeps Ayoola from posting pictures of her dinner to Instagram when she should be mourning her "missing" boyfriend. Not that she gets any credit.
Korede has long been in love with a kind, handsome doctor at the hospital where she works. She dreams of the day when he will realize she's exactly what he needs. But when he asks Korede for Ayoola's phone number, she must reckon with what her sister has become and how far she's willing to go to protect her.
Sharp as nails and full of deadpan wit, Oyinkan Braithwaite's deliciously deadly debut is as fun as it is frightening.
Modern Noir At Its Finest.... Absurd and smart at the same time. Just the right book to pick up if you want some mindless entertainment. It is well written, but the actual story is the true gem. It doesn't get any better than a femme fatale and her co-dependent sister covering up murders. I wanted it to end differently, but it's still an enjoyable read.Quick but enthralling read As fascinated with true crime as I am I must admit to not being a reader of crime, or murder but something about this caught my eye and I'm glad I read it. It's not a full length novel, but a concise tale that leaves you wondering where else the story could go. The setting gives some insight int a culture I am unfamiliar with and how different law enforcement agencies around the world can be. Well worth the price and small time investment for a gripping tale.A Bloody Good Book! I had been hearing about this book long before it was published and was eager to read it. It was the perfect thing to pick up right before Valentine’s Day! While many of the professional reviews focus on the humor (witty, pulpy, darkly funny) the book is more than that. It is also about family loyalty and women’s place in Nigerian society. It is also about misperceptions and the things we chose to ignore about those we love.Korede is the older sister. She is a nurse who is very responsible and plays by the rules. Fortunately for her younger sister Ayoola, Korede also knows how to clean up a crime scene! Ayoola is beautiful, creative, and gets everything she wants. She also has the bad habit of killing off her boyfriends. Korede begrudgingly helps her sister hide the evidence and also keeps her from giving away their secrets. That is until Ayoola catches the eye of a young doctor who Korede has been pining for herself. Should she try to save him? Can she? Will he believe her?The book is written in short chapters that are as sharp as Ayoola’s knife. As the story of the sisters, their mother, and their deceased father unfold, you begin to understand how Ayoola developed into a murderess. This is a short book and a quick read. There is a lot left unsaid. There are some nice twists and I think that the ending is left open to some interpretation. In my opinion, Korede does not know her sister as well as she believes and is as easily manipulated as Ayoola’s boyfriends. This book is as darkly fun as it is psychologically sophisticated.
