Balambal Suryanarayanan's Reviews > Such a Good Girl

I don't think I have it in me, or if the alphabets, or words do to pen down what this book meant to me. Like, damn!
Fast paced? Check. Necessary cliffhangers? Check. Rushing the adrenaline in? Check. Holding you on the tip of your seat until your family realises something has gotten in to you but you are the only one who knows it's a frissom that went down your frame? Check. Everything that a thriller needs to have? Check.
Above all, if there is something I wish to embrace Willow for, then I guess it has to be for the truth.

The women you used, the ones you destroyed, we are still here, and there are many of us. And now, we're coming for you.

Washington and the FBI stare at a gruesome succumbing of a 20-year-old intern and all eyes point to Richard Wanton, a high-profile director. Except, the FBI has nothing in hand to support except one star witness. Problem is, she'll only talk to ex-FBI Eva Rae Thomas and Eva would do anything than talk with her.
Why?
Because she has always wanted her dead.
The case is supposed to be easy. A simple push down with two cruising gendarmerie watching that unfold must cut the chase too low and finish it all. But there are may loose ends that needs tying. Except Eva taking that up only opens the gates for the run to collide with her.
Such brilliance in Willow's writing. Taking in heart the need to develop the suspense, and carrying it off well is what I loved about this book. Above all, the characters, wow. Just wow. You could spill their psychologies in what, like a whiff.
The best thing about this whole thing was, as I said before, the bitter truths. In addition to taking in about the distinction in criminology that money holds, she also talks about this problem prevalent in the society. The issue with people choosing their careers over their loved ones. Yes, I believe it is important for us to be for our loved ones, but not all jobs make that easy, do they? This need not, however, necessarily mean that those loved ones aren't watching out for us. They may not be there for us, or know how well we are getting ahead in life, but they always have this guilt biting inside out of not being there for their loved ones when they really needed them, and would give their best to loving them whenever they can.
Overall, this one's a stunning, nail-biting, thrilling, and page turning read that's worth more than a shot!
Thanks to Netgalley for this splendiferous book!!!
