This book has been on my list for a long time and I was so excited to read it. With that in mind, it took me too long to actually get into the story or even stay interested. Reviews always mention the plot twist in the end but honestly,…

Once I got into this story, it was hard to put down. In addition to being a police procedural, it’s a Portrait of a disfuctional family that simply cannot accept the truth or their own culpability because it might tarnish their precious…

Did not finish. Distracted by some word choice issues, lazy character types, inaccurate descriptions of Chicago geography- something like "headed downtown and arrived in Rogers Park." Just awful.

Don't read the ending first, it is a total surprise and the ending really puts another layer into the story.

Great book with a twist I never saw coming.

An amazing "Oh my gosh!" book! What an ending!

The way the author portrayed the ONLY Black character in this book was offputting to me. It was not integral to the story for the character to be Black, he could have served the same purpose as a person of any background. He was the main…

I couldn't put this down! It was so great. Suspense was there. Great character build up. A love storey. I can't wait to read more from Mary Kubica

A little predictable near the end but I enjoyed it.

Excellent read. Drew me in right from the beginning and held onto me the entire roller-coaster ride. Looking forward to reading more by this author. #greatreads

This is a really, really good read. Creative, suspenseful and unpredictable. I would give it a 5 rating, but I’m opposed to all of the swearing.

This book was impossible for me to put down. I loved the three points of view, and the way it skips around in time (but in an organized, non-confusing way), made for a very fascinating read. I had an idea of how it would conclude, and…

Mia disappeared. Was she kidnapped? When she is eventually found, she has no memory and calls herself Chloe. Is she a victim? Or a perpetrator?

I strongly disagree that this was in the same genre as Harlequin romance novels. MIRA is a division of Harlequin & they publish amazing reads just as this was. I had a hard time putting it down. I read for enjoyment not to try to figure…

Similarities to Gone Girl are exaggerated. Gillian Flynn had the ability to create unlikable characters, yet compel the reader to continue reading. The characters in Good Girl were largely cliches, especially Mia's family. I kick myself…

Hands down the best book I have ever read. I love the different perspectives and how the book was written. I had so many emotions while reading this. Totally shocking plot twists and endings. I seriously COULD NOT put this book down....…

Written similar to Gone Girl. A little slow in the middle, but great ending!

I started off by reading Don't you Cry and it was so good that i thought i must try her other books. This was hauntingly addictive. It was filled with intense moments and suspense but was interesting how their lives all interlocked and…

I did like the way the story was told. Kubica sets up two timelines: Before and After (Mia's return). Instead of seeing and account from the kidnapped girl, we follow her mother Eve, the detective Greg and the kidnapper Colin. This plot…

I really enjoyed this book! The ending completely took me by surprise!

I liked the multiple narrators, though the characters seemed flat to me. As the reader, I also liked how it felt like I was getting closer to the crux of the story by approaching from both "before" and "after" perspectives. The ending made…

When chapters are told by a different character, it is often possible to get a more rounded picture of the story. This book also adds a 'before' and 'after' the kidnapping to each character's voice. Through these people we learn about…
