A review by swankystitch
The Good Daughter by Karin Slaughter

dark funny sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.25

Definitely check the trigger warnings before you pick this one up. If it’s a trigger, it’s probably in here. 
That being said, I gave this book 4.25 stars, and it had my biggest triggers in it; SA, rape, and pedophiles. 
The witty back and forth between our 2 main characters was funny and helped me smile and giggle throughout this incredibly dark book. 
I loved how it covered feelings of grief, guilt, revenge, and love. 

I’m not great at writing reviews but this was a good one. 
I just wish we got more from Kelly and her story line. The ending felt rushed and most of the last chapter felt more like an epilogue.
