The Good Daughter

My first Karin Slaughter book didn't turn out like I expected.

With all the hype about this book, I was very looking forward to read it. What I wanted from this book was:

-A fast paced story with a good character development. -A good mystery to keep me reading. -Likable characters. -Good turns and twists in the story.

However, what I got was a slow story that mainly focused in the family relationships. The mystery wasn't mysterious enough. The shooting in the school and Kelly's scenes were interesting, but unfortunately they weren't the main focus of this book. Also, I didn't quite like the characters, well, except maybe Samantha. She was the reason that I finished the book.

By other side, there weren't many twists in the story as I hoped. I won't denied that there was a twist almost at the end that changed everything. But it wasn't shocking at all.

I don't hate the book, but I can't say I enjoyed it either. It was good, but not that good.

I won this book through GoodReads and I thank to publishers for providing me this copy. My review isn't influenced by this fact.
