I liked this book for the most part. Pretty good writing just a bit too repetitive for me making the book unnecessarily long.

This roped me in instantly! Just slowed down a lot near the halfway point and started to drag on a bit. The ending concluded everything in a that made it worth finishing though.

I think this but slightly traumatized me, but in like the best way possible. This book had me completely hooked the entire way through! Could not put it down!!! It’s disturbing, so keep that in mind. But definitely worth reading.

Very good book. Graphic dark plot, fast paced with lots of twists.

Trigger Warning!!! This book contains graphic descriptions of torture porn, rape, and murder. It comes up with no warning and is throughout the book. I couldn’t finish it and felt physically ill. There should be a warning label for others…

It's a great book, well written, great characters, twists that I didn't see ahead of time. It's also very dark the torture and abuse was well written and these things do happen in real life just make sure you are ok with reading it. I had…

Pretty girls is by far one of Slaughter's best books, right up there with Cop Town. As many of Slaughter's books do carry a dark undertone, she absolutely delivers here again. This book follows two sisters who reconnect after a sudden…

Brutality stretched out too much.

Absolutely brutal book that had my heart pounding and hands sweating the whole time. Extremely shocking, graphic, and stomach-turning. I felt physically ill a few times and had to take multiple breaks to process what was going on. Trigger…

Loved this book. I hate it when authors shy away from difficult content or just elude to it, it makes a story feel juvenile or watered down. This book does not do that. The graphic scenes in this book at really tough, but it adds so much…

This book was at times brutal and shocking with it’s graphic depictions of sexual violence perpetrated on women. The author doesn’t pull any punches in her descriptions so be for warned. But that’s the point that this type of violence is…

I ate this book up! It's entirely graphic and can be triggering for those that have suffered sexual abuse. With a lot of twists and turns, you don't know who to trust. But a good read if you can stomach it.

Authors name says it all A GARBAGE book, with details of torture mutilation and killing.

THIS BOOK WOW. The story was absolutely insane, so many twists and turns. Loved not knowing who to trust, or what was going to happen next. And putting all the pieces together was just sick, but so good.

This is stand alone Karin Slaughter novel

Rape. Mutilation with a machete. Mutilation with fire. This was just the first "pretty girl". I stopped reading. I'm so heartsick that women write this crap about other women.

This is NOT a book for young impressionable readers. I'm sorry I read it and rather wish I hadn't : this is in spite of the fact that much of the fiction I read are "crime thrillers". I lean more towards the Hitchcock style of…

I have just restarted my love of reading, and this was my first book back. Also my first Karen Slaughter book and WOW! It kept my interest from the first chapter; hard to put it down. It is very graphic and twisted, with strong adult…

This was an excellent book to read. SOOOOOO Many twists and turns. Shocking events with stunning crimes, betrayals, sibling and familial alienation for a horrendous crime of a lovely beautiful teenager kidnapped and presumed murdered. How…

This was the first Karin Slaughter book I have ever read and also the scariest. Very dark and unbelievable what people are capable of. I have enjoyed her other books very much. I warn people about this book, it was that scary to me.

This was my first Karen Slaughter book. I liked the characters and storyline but the violent and graphic details were too much for me. It's definitely page-turner, but be prepared for lots of darkness.

I've never read any Karin Slaughter books before so what a great delight to discover her during the time of Co-vid and a winter that just wont quit! Highly recommended for murder mystery fans.

Wow. This book was...a lot. Just...it was a lot. I zipped through the first half but the second half dragged a bit for me. The story was horrifying and brutal and told very well. I think the last half could have been wrapped up a bit…
