Dear Daughter by Elizabeth Little
4.0
Dear Daughter has been on my TBR since 2016. So it seemed fitting to jump into a thriller book just before October. In it, you will meet Janie. She seems to have it all until the day it all comes tumbling down. The day her mother is murdered is the day she is convicted and goes to jail.
Did she really do it? No. Does anyone believe that? Also no.
Once she tastes freedom, she's sort of on the run to figure out the truth. She knows she didn't do it but she doesn't know what actually happened to her mom. It's not like they were close or anything because they definitely weren't. At times they would acknowledge one another but it seemed like they lived separate lives and enjoyed it that way.
With each twist and turn, I was completely confused and honestly had no idea who was behind it all. After the big reveal, though, I didn't expect it. Of course things started to make sense after I finished the book. It was like all the clues just sort of merged together and I had the lightbulb moment.
A little late in the book murder mystery thriller game though.
I still definitely enjoyed the book and I will have to be on the look out for another one of Elizabeth's books soon.
