Darling Girls is a slow burn with multiple POV’s and varying timelines that will leave you with a sense of unease. I loved hearing the stories told by each sister. Jessica, Norah, and Alicia were such likeable characters.

We get to hear the back story of manipulation of each foster sister and we get to learn how that contributes to the lovingly dysfunctional adults they’ve become.

We have an unknown narrator and when you put the pieces together…wow. That ending was something else 😳

I really enjoyed this!
