Katy Brent has this unbelievable talent for creating characters and plotlines that you're just not going to forget. This book had me on the edge of my seat throughout and I devoured this story in one sitting.

The book is fast paced and absolutely jam packed with twists and turns. Despite being loaded with some heavy themes there was some humour and major eye roll moments thrown in too.

I loved Molly but I have to admit at times I was telling her out loud to give her head a good ole wobble lol! All the characters were well developed throughout and it soon became obvious which ones we're meant to love and which ones we're not meant to like so much.

A very relatable, story that touches on real life issues including social media if you enjoy a fast paced mystery to solve then this ones for you.

I really enjoyed this authors first book but this one just wasn't for me. Struggled to get into it, which made it hard for me to become invested in the story or care much about the characters.

I knew I was going to enjoy this book but I didn't expect to binge-it-in-one-day enjoy it! Oh my goodness, I fell in love will Molly. I just wanted to give her a cuddle. I felt like I was on her investigation right along side her.
Ooh I also wanted to rattle her sometimes and tell her to not give up. But I was rooting for her all along. There were characters in this book that you're supposed to hate, ones you love (Molly and Posey) and ones who you're not quite sure about.
I didn't know where this book was going and it kept me so gripped I couldn't put it down. And then end! Didn't see it coming.
A brilliant thriller with real life issues woven in as well as a bit of humour.
Loved it.

What a great murder mystery! The twists kept coming and while I guessed some, others had me bulge-eyed and saying what!?? This was not a comedy like her first book which at first had me sad because I was hoping for a laugh, but I quickly didn’t mind in the least as the mystery began to unfold. With equally lovable and hate-able characters the story drags you in and keeps you up reading way too late because you just have to know what’s going to happen next. A wonder of a who done it?!

A huge thank you to Katy Brent and her publisher Harper Collins for the ARC!

What a book!when molly discovers a video after her Christmas party she must face her drinking problem whilst trying to remember what happened that night. It's more important than ever due to the fact the one person who could help her is found dead. Molly must find the truth behind her friends death the police believe it was an accident, but as a fellow journalist she knows the truth isn't always on the surface. What she uncovers is shocking it will leave your head full of questions assuming the worst of certain characters and rallying for others. The pace and tone were amazing , the plot amazing the conclusion and epilogue were just right tieing up all the loose ends we didn't think would be answered . I can't wait to read this authors other books

Molly is a bit of a mess already, but when she wakes up the morning after getting blackout drunk to find herself publicly humiliated and her best friend dead, it seems that things can always get worse.

Having read the author's last book, I was expecting this one to be slightly satirical, but actually I found myself surprisingly sad whilst reading it. There are some real comments in it about the state of our society, particularly in relation to women, and some parts were difficult to read. Overall it was a good book, and I'm still thinking about it days later.

I received a copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review

Molly Monroe wakes up after her work party in bed with a strange man, and has no idea what happened. Unfortunately, she is about to find out. Eventually she also finds her flatmate and best friend Posey dead in the bath. Molly doesn't believe that it was an accident and carries out her own investigation, although she has no idea who she can trust. She's a funny and determined character. Lovely book. Recommended.

I've finished reading The Murder After The Night Before by @but_katy_did_it and I rate it 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Molly Monroe wakes up after a night of drinking at her work party but what was meant to be a night of fun and laughter turns into a living nightmare and the days that follow will be a twisted web of lies and murder but with Molly on the hunt for the truth will she be the a victim or the victor?

Oh how I absolutely loved this book, it was just brilliant from start to finish, I thought the story was very believable and you can imagine happening, it was very well written and plotted with plenty of twists and turns it really keeps the reader guessing to the very end.

I honestly couldn't put it down I just wanted to know what happens next I wanted to know who did it and why I was enjoying how it all came together. I absolutely loved the ending I thought it was the perfect fit for both the story and the characters. I really enjoy Katy Brent's writing and the way she tells story's I'm looking forward to the next one.

also hear me out, in my mind I kind think Molly Monroe and Kitty Collins from the author's previous book How To Kill Men And Get Away With It, could be friends in fact Kitty Collins could help Molly Monroe on a certain problem 😉

katy brent has become one of my favourite authors. fast paced, funny, dark, heartbreaking, plot twist after plot twist, i laughed, i cried, i got goosebumps. one of my top reads of the year.

Molly's world is turned upside down in 24hrs when a drunken work night out turns into a social media fiasco that leaves her reputation in tatters. And the icing on the cake, her friend is dead and no-one believes it wasn't an accident. Molly is determined to find out the truth, no matter the cost.

Oh my word Katy, you did it again. What a whirlwind story, it gripped me from the start and didn't let go. I was initially mortified for Molly and as I continued to read I got angrier, and angrier. The misogynistic treatment she got from every angle left me fuming! Katy has the ability to draw you into very real characters, allowing them to be relatable without being saccharine.

Molly wakes up with a stranger in her bed, worse that that, she is trending on social media as she has been filmed in a sex act. She remembers nothing and things go from bad to worse when she discovers her best friend.... a darkly humorous book in the style of Dawn O'Porter, we follow Molly on her quest to find the truth about what happened to Posey and who she can trust. Refreshing and funny yet poignant.

I previously read this authors work and loved it so much and I was looking forward to reading this so much. I was so excited to start this and was immediately hooked and couldn't put this down. I loved the fun, witty humour that meshed well with the darker parts of the story (which I don't want to spoil but there is some sensitive topics). Although I did guess some of the twists I still loved reading this and I highly recommend.

I’ve read Katy Brent’s debut, How To Kill Men And Get Away With It, and absolutely loved it. So when I got the opportunity to read an ARC of her next book I was so excited!
I read this book in just 2 days. It kept me hooked with its witty yet gripping plot. Humour is well balanced with the darker, emotional side of the story, still fitting in more sensitive topics such as SA and suicide.
I had my suspicions of a lot of the characters and liked how it concluded.
I definitely recommend taking a look at these 2 books if you haven’t already!

The story is told by Molly Monroe who wakes up after her Christmas party to find she has gone viral on the internet and her best friend Posey dead.
I thought the book started off great but I found the murder plot weak and the ending was very obvious. Slightly disappointed as so many others loved it - but for me it was just an ok read.
With thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for this arc in exchange for an honest review.

This is my second book by Katy Brent and enjoyed this as much as her first. She can write thrillers so expertly. I didn't guess the twists at all but I couldn't stop reading!

When I started this book I’d forgotten that I’d already loved a book by this author so I thought it was going to be just another book about a washed up thirty something who drank too much and got into horrendous scrapes. But then the real story kicked in and I was absolutely hooked. Not your usual murder mystery that ends up tied in a neat little bow. Witty,, dark writing that I absolutely love. Fabulous.

I thought this book was going to be a very lighthearted read, it quickly took a turn. When the heroine of the story awakes, she finds herself at home in bed with a stranger after a drunken works do. She goes to work only to find she has gone viral after a video of her performing a sex act is posted online. Just when she thinks things cannot get worse she discovers her best friend is missing.
This book was a real page turner and though the subject was quite deep, it was well written. Would read this author again.
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Overview:
Molly Monroe, a journalist for a tween magazine goes out on a night out with work. She wakes up the next morning violently hungover and with a handsome man, Jack, in her bed. She can’t remember anything about the night before.

Later, when she gets in to work, she discovers that whilst she was drunk she was caught in an uncompromising position with another man on the streets of London. Surprisingly, that’s the least of her worries as her best friend and flatmate Posey is found dead. The police decide the death was accidental but Molly suspects different. It’s up to her to prove otherwise and find justice for Posey.

Thoughts:
I absolutely loved this book. The writing is hilarious, and at time darkly comedic, and I was hooked from the beginning. The author does a fantastic job of fleshing out Molly and other female characters and showing those ignorant (hopefully no one) of the crap that women have to deal with.

You're hit with twist after twist and just when you think all has been revealed, the truth smacks you in the face. In short, it's riveting, gripping feminist story about friendship, misogyny and murder. I'm rushing to buy How To Kill Men And Get Away With It and I can't wait to read whatever comes next. Highly recommend.

What can I say, Katy Brent does it again! Another absolutely epic book. I've read it in less than 24 hours, I was hooked from the start, Such a brilliant story put together, with really amazing characters that just come to life through her writing. So many twists that I wasn't expecting, and what I was expecting, wasn't true. Katy will be on my go to author list forever.
I'm so grateful to have been offered this e-arc in exchange for an honest review, thank you to the author, publisher and netgalley.

This was a very fun, very fast read! The perfect comedy thriller to get anyone out of a reading slump.

Molly Monroe is a great character who I really enjoyed reading (even if she did cry her way through everything) and the central mystery was well told - had me guessing right up to the reveal!

I'll definitely read Katy Brent again, got me hooked!
