I couldn't get into it. The characters were too unlikeable and all the same.

Easy read, easy to follow. Storyline is alright but more of a teen book in my opinion.

New author for me, thoroughly enjoyed this book from start to finish.

Sin Tropez is the debut novel by Aita Ighodaro that takes us to all of the most exclusive hangouts of the ultra rich and gives a glimpse into the high class social scene.

Ighodaro paints a colorful portrait of excess in a world where the rich are not used to being told no and the girls are all wanting to catch themselves a lasting piece of the action. This story has been well written to evoke many different emotional responses which are ultimately subconscious because even when you don’t want to empathise when the characters bring disaster on themselves you can’t help it.

Wow, where is the 'no star' button? I read through chapter one, but I can not go on. I felt brain cells dyeing with each word. Idiot girls thinking of themselves and no one else. Not at all something I want to read.
DNF. Read 14 pages (aka one chapter)

I hated all the characters, and I thought it was quite badly edited. The story and main "mystery" was okay, nice twist at the end.

too glamorous and vulgar for my taste. Sorry. Another bad pick from my TBR jar

Fun, frivolous, sexy - the perfect read for winter escapism or lazy days by the pool.

I am not the age group this was written for but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be

A great page-turner, it should come with a movie ticket as a bonus!
