"Wow! These are some dark, dark stories. Very different writing style than her full length novels but the her talent for creating new and intriguing characters remains."

    " Not the usual for Karin Slaughter and not one I enjoyed it was a pretty bleak book, in fact it was pretty depressing not one I'd recommend. "

    " The first Karin Slaughter that I rated less than 4 stars. This short story is a bit convoluted in its framework, and not nearly as affective or shocking as I hoped it would be. Depressing, unexciting, and worst of all--predictable. "

    " Short but compelling, a little disturbing in parts but definitely worth a read. "

    " ik las het e-book zonder vooraf naar het aantal pagina's te kijken. Ook al omdat de titel net zo klinkt als alle andere verwachtte ik een volledige thriller..Ik was dus nogal verrast door het einde. Toch niet slecht geschreven, en precies de juiste lengte om in bad te lezen :-) "

    " Dit korte verhaal vond ik erg boeiend, maar ook wel erg kort; een deel van het boek bleek te bestaan uit reclame voor andere boeken. "

    " Well, this was such a strange book.. I don't even know how to describe it. I'm going to think about it, because I'm not sure how to review it. The whole storyline was just strange. I've read it in one hour, 'cause the wirting style is nice to read, but I don't think I quite enjoyed it. "

    " These stories are interesting, but what really makes them interesting is that they seem so pedestrian until you get to the last couple of lines. Then the author manages to shock you, those words tainting the whole story and makes you realize things aren't what you first realized. "
