4.5 ⭐️ Happy Publication Day! When Chloe Davis was twelve, six teenage girls went missing in her small Louisiana town.Lena Rhodes was the first. The original. The girl that every girl in Breaux Bridge envied UNTIL her face became the one seen on every TV, and on all of the MISSING posters around town. Robin, Margaret, Carrie, Susan, and Jill were the others. Then, Chloe’s father confessed and went to prison, and the killings stopped. Twenty years later, Chloe is a psychologist in Private Practic...
3 StarsI have mixed feelings about this book.On one hand, I really disliked the narrator. She was seemingly super unreliable at times and she made what I thought were really, really stupid decisions. All the time. Like the quintessential TSTL ("too stupid too live") female bane of the stereotypical romance novel. Like, really friggin stupid, folks. But on the other hand, I really enjoyed certain aspects of the writing, the plot, and the overall feel of the book. In fact, if I sit back and think
what a solid debut! i love a good serial killer copycat murder mystery. i was able to figure out everything very early on (im talking like within the first 50 pages), but thats only because ive read loads of mystery/thrillers and can spot the ‘whodunnit’ a mile away. it has nothing to do with SWs storytelling, which is actually pretty strong.the pacing is good, the reveals are timed well, and the characters have depth to them. the whole unreliable narrator is one of my least favourite tropes, bu...
Whoa! This is so impressive, spine tingling and deliciously twisty and intelligent! Let’s make some noise and clap till our hands hurt: we have a brilliant author at smart psychological thriller town : welcome dear Stacy Willingham! I have to admit: sometimes reading about the family’s traumatic life after a serial killer father is convicted is a great plot idea to work on! The character driven/ psychological thriller story of this book picked my interest and hooked me up from the beginning. I
This is a Psychological Thriller that will keep you guessing. I cannot believe this is a debut book because it was so good. I was pulled it to this story right for the beginning, and I did not want to put it down. This book kept me guessing, and it kept having me changing mine mind on who did it. The main character of this book was not lovable, but she made me root for her by the end. The ending of this book was so great, but I also loved the beginning of this book. If you love a book with a ton...
3.5 stars rounded to 4"I was twelve years old when those shadows started to form a shape, a face. Started to become less of an apparition and more concrete. More real. When I began to realize that maybe the monsters lived among us. And there was one monster, in particular, I learned to fear above all the rest."While a bit predictable (but still maintaining a twist here and there that surprised me), an astounding debut! It's a true testament to an author's writing style if they can keep you readi...
Chloe's Dad is now in prison, six teenage girls are missing and he is known as the serial killer. Chloe has gone through a lot of trauma being the daughter of a serial killer.She is now a psychologist and is happy. Then there are girls going missing again. They also are copy cat murders. What the heck is going on?I really enjoyed this book. I just could not put this book down! I kept guessing and guessing what was going on and I was wrong every time. This was not a predictable read for me at all...
Lots of buzz about this one and I didn't want to miss out. I wasn't very interested in reading this until so many mixed reviews made me curious. I always like to give a book a chance and see where I land. In this case, in didn't work out, but now I know. I found the first half on the slow side with some pacing issues. The author seemed to get a little wordy and repetitive at times. Once I hit the halfway mark, the pace picked up and I was more interested in how it would end. Chloe was unlikeable...
