Girls Like Us by Cristina Alger

3.0

I found Girls Like Us challenging to get into.  The beginning seemed fairly slow, and it wasn’t until 150 pages in that my interest piqued. I felt the ending was a bit abrupt, and the overall plot felt somewhat outlandish. Personally, I’m not particularly drawn to 'bad cop' narratives, although I admit I didn’t initially read the summary, so that’s on me.  However, I appreciated the strong female character and the intricacies of the murder case. Despite not being fully immersed in the story, I still recommend it, as my experience is in the minority on Goodreads. Fans of police procedurals should check this one out!
