APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Anyone who‘s been through the rollercoaster of high hopes and disappointment of trying to buy a property will applaud the ingenious premise of Best Offer Wins. What if, after 18 months of searching and 11 lost bidding wars, you find the perfect house before it hits the market—how far would you go to secure it? Part domestic thriller, part satire of the first-world problems that become all-consuming in our late capitalist society, former journalist Marisa Kashino‘s debut novel is by turns laugh-out-loud funny and gasp-inducing. Follow along with glee as her anti-heroine, 37-year-old Margo, not only crosses the line with her scheming, but pole vaults over it, becoming more unhinged by the page. Whether you despise her or find some tiny, hidden part of yourself relating to her, you won‘t be able to look away.
