Bright Young Women by Jessica Knoll is more than just a true crime-inspired novel — it's a powerful, feminist retelling that centers the voices of victims instead of glorifying the killer. In this review, we explore how Knoll masterfully blends fact and fiction, critiques media bias, and gives power back to the women whose stories are too often forgotten. If you think you know the story, think again.

Jennifer Dulos seemed to have it all—wealth, beauty, a picture-perfect life. But behind closed doors, a darker reality unfolded. Murder in the Dollhouse uncovers the chilling truth of a woman trapped in a façade, and the obsessive control that ultimately led to her disappearance. A haunting reminder that perfection can be the mask of something far more dangerous.
