Waited a week to write this review and had already completely forgotten what this book was about. So yeah, not a very memorable story. If you have a huge to read pile, I’d skip this.

I love Mary Kubica! Pretty Baby is a gripping psychological thriller that follows the intertwined lives of three individuals - a couple who take in a homeless girl and the girl herself. As their relationships become increasingly tangled and dark secrets are revealed, readers will be flipping pages aiming for the stunning conclusion. No one does character and plot like Kubica! Pretty Baby is a must-read for fans of psychological suspense.

I love Mary Kubica’s writing style. The multi character’s perspective for each chapter keeps you guessing. Just when the story line gets to an intense moment... BAM! The storyline changes to the next view point. Smart. Keeps the reader hungry for more. It’s the second book I’ve read by her and I enjoyed it even more!

A suspenseful read that had reality unraveling for characters and explanation for other characters actions. I did not really like any of the characters, but felt sympathy for some. The story ended up going in a different direction than I expected, but all in all, it was a good book.

Yikes

I really didn’t care for this one. I didn’t find many redeeming characteristics in any of the characters, and the plot was just a little lackluster.
