Boy oh boy, is Pretty Girls a thriller that delivers on its dark promises. I had been meaning to read it for quite some time, and the final bit of persuasion I needed was hearing Hailey Hughes talk about it on her YouTube channel. This was my first Karin Slaughter, and I was not disappointed!

I will say that this is not a book for everyone. The entire plot centers around something that is absolutely repugnant (ahem

), so if that is something that you would like to not read or think about, do not read Pretty Girls. But if you are willing to read about that sort of thing in order to also read a gripping story about the ways that tragedy can rip a family apart and, in this case, bring them back together, then I think that this is the book for you.

Also, it has one of the most "good for her" paragraphs that I've ever read.
