Anatomy of a Scandal by Sarah Vaughan
4.0
You could have taken the plot of this novel right out of the pages of the British tabloids, especially a few years ago. Seeing as our current PM wasn't a member of the Bullingdon club, there's less of a controversy surrounding her, but in previous years, such a scandal could have been relatively normal in British society. I need to put a huge content warning on this book for sexual assault and rape, because it's discussed in quite graphic detail throughout.
This was definitely an interesting read, and for anyone who loves court-dramas or mysteries about society will love this novel. Though it does tend to go on in the feelings department for a really long time, and on occasion presented some really awful accents- I listened to the audiobook and the Northern Irish accent of one of the lawyers was one of the worst I've ever heard- it's one of those addictive reads that you want to keep picking up, just so you know what happens next. I really enjoyed this novel and I'll definitely keep reading Sarah Vaughn's books.
