One of my favorite things about reading is being pulled into a story, so completely that you forget about the world going on around you. Its my escape from reality. 
Karin Slaughter is a damn queen. She is in a league all her own with her story telling capabilities, and the way she grabs you so fiercely from the first few pages and doesn't let go until you are left gasping for air after you've read the last word. 
There were several parts in this book that I actually stopped breathing. Holding my breath as I was trying to read faster to get over that precipice, but I'd just find myself climbing higher up that mountain. 

This is only my third KS book and I am here for everything.  Every brutal moment, every tender one. Every middle finger in the air, you can't touch me anymore moment.
