Book: Very Bad Company 

Author: Emma Rosenblum

Thank you NetGalley and Macmillan Audiofor an advanced audio copy. 


I was not a fan of Emma Rosenblum’s other novel, Bad Summer People so I did go into this book with slightly lower expectations. One of my problems with Bad Summer People was just how unlikeable everyone was. A few chapters into Very Bad Company I felt like I was reading the same book, another case of horrible and unlikeable characters. A few chapters more and I realized this cast being so unlikeable worked for this story and I started to get sucked in.

The story follows a group of employees on a company retreat to Miami. Their company, Aurora has a lot of rumors floating around about them one being a very profitable acquisition. When one of their employees is found dead of an overdose everyone has to stay the course and try not to draw any attention to themselves to not derail the acquisition.

Everyone is greedy, everyone sucks, and everyone was a suspect. The fact that I hated everyone made me more invested in the story to see if the person I hated the most was the killer. I’m glad I decided to stick with this one because I was definitely rewarded with a fun ride. 

Final Score 4/5
