Good Bad Girl by Alice Feeney 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4/5)

Genre: Thriller

About 305 pages

Four women. Three suspects. Two murders. And one missing woman. Edith, Frankie, Clio, and Patience are all good bad girls. These women are connected by two things: a missing baby from 20 years ago and a woman murdered in a care home. Each wants to solve the murders and disappearance for their own selfish reasons…

I had to keep the summary brief for this one because otherwise, it would give too much away, but WOW. This book started a little slow but ended with a bang. I loved figuring out how each of the women was connected to one another and specifically loved Edith and Patience’s characters. Every time I thought I knew where we were going, Feeney threw in another twist. I definitely got confused at times, so this is a book where you really need to put your thinking cap on while reading it, but I would highly recommend it!

Favorite Quote: “Time can be borrowed, wasted, or stolen. Time can bend or break, it can hurt or heal. Time can rewrite history. But time is too precious to be taken.”
