WHAT READERS LOVE ABOUT BELLA MACKIE:

Just when you think you're a step ahead, she pulls something out of the bag

Caustic sarcasm delivered with elegance

Mackies writing is sharp and funny

Her sarcasm knows no bounds and I love it

Sparky, slick, wildly compulsive

Macabre, flippant, and darkly hilarious

Her irreverent, withering put-downs and sharply observed comments

What A Way To Go was a Sunday Times bestseller w/c 16.09.24
