Adult Fiction book review

Pretty Girls by Karin Slaughter

This book is set to be published on September 29, 2015.

I raced through this book so quickly because the story line was fast-paced even though it jumps back and forth between past and present tense. It is definitely a nail biting, up-all-night-after-reading kind of scary suspense novel. Karin Slaughter has an uncanny knack of giving the reader the chills while also making he or she want to keep reading for more chills. There were a couple of plot twists in the book that were pretty shocking, but well worth it. The violence and description of such is pretty gory, so I wouldn’t advise reading if you do not handle that kind of thing very well. I won’t give many details as to the plot or synopsis of the book, because it becomes apparent rather quickly in the first few chapters. The craziest thing about this story is that one of the sisters was married to a man for almost 20 years and knew absolutely nothing about his actual lifestyle and killer instincts. Very creepy. I’ve read all of Karin’s book so far, and this is one of my favorites, despite that fact that I was up thinking about it far after I had finished the last page. Trust me; this is way better than a scary movie or a creepy episode of Dateline!
