The Good Sister by Wendy Corsi Staub

5.0

Jen Archer’s daughter Carley has followed in her mother’s footsteps by attending the Sacred Sisters Catholic girls’ school. Unfortunately, Carley is having a rough time at school dealing with the ultimate in mean girls. When Carley is suddenly friendless, she turns to an online confidante. When girls start dying, Jen’s worries about how Carley is fitting in at school turn to fear for her daughter’s life!

“The Good Sister” is a great book that is delightfully creepy. It’s suspenseful, scary, and surprising and just when I would think I had it all figured out, the plot would take another unexpected turn. The suspense comes from wondering who the killer is and who the next victim will be. The solution is a bit out there, but very entertaining. In addition, at the heart of the story is a lesson that there is more to friendship than just online connections and people shouldn’t forget to talk to each other!

I loved this book! It reminded me of an early Mary Higgins Clark novel but is scarier. There is a sinister villain that sometimes gets your sympathy, likeable main characters, and a surprising solution. I definitely recommend this book.

I received this book through Goodreads “First Reads” program and have provided my honest review of the book.
