Meet Teddy Cutcher. He’s the Teacher of the Year at the prestigious and exclusive Belmont Academy and teaches English…along with a few other lessons. See, Teddy believes it’s his added responsibility to bring some of these students down a size, for their own good, even if it means destroying them (and others in the way) using unconventional methods.
Whoa! This is all kinds of crazy sauce, deliciously served up in the most clever of packages. Teddy is very definitely a psychopath but not the kind that’s obvious to any but those who have suffered because of him. But, by the time he’s done with them, their credibility is below zero and no one would believe them. And if there was any chance of that, he’d figure out how to permanently dispose of them.
As captivating and outrageous as Teddy was, I really wanted him to be caught, but only in as diabolical a way as he would concoct. It was impossible to put this book down and the narrator made that even more difficult. His depiction of Teddy was dead on but he was equally adept at voicing everyone else. Get ready for a fun but macabre psychological thriller that doesn’t believe that anything could be considered over the top. It just works here and there’s no clue how this was going to work out. I had my suspicions, came close, but wasn’t invested in being right. This is definitely going to be on my list of favorites for the year.

Great review, Jo. I really need to read this!
Thank you, Jacob💜 I think you do, too!
Hmm I read another of hers and it was just too crazy pants for me. Fantastic review but I’ll have to think it over.
Anne – Books of My Heart
She takes normal situations that are already ridiculous and spins them. The irony rages in the midst of the crazy.
Excellent review Jo. Not sure if I am ready for Crazy Sauce or not.
Thank you, Carla💜 It may be crazy but it’s also highly entertaining. Hope you give it a whirl.
Okay, I am going to keep it on the TBR.
Yay!
I really enjoyed this book too. Teddy was such a piece of work, lol.
I was unprepared for how quickly this story hooked me! Yes, Teddy was scary clever.
What a harrowing story this was! Love your review and the fact you so enjoyed this book, Jo!
Thank you, Marialyce💜 I was so worried about him getting away with everything. He was that clever.
I’m adding this to my list! Maybe I should now first pick up the novel I have (He Started It) ☺️ Wonderful review!
I still have that one to read, too! But I did read My Lovely Wife. Hope you enjoy, Inge💜
