Welcome to Litsy!

TRIGGER WARNING: I had a difficult time with this one. It‘s not because it‘s not a good book; it is. It‘s the subject matter. I had to stop listening several times because I just couldn‘t listen anymore. If you can get past the horribly awful parts, it is still a good book in the series. #SeriesLove2023 @Andrew65 @TheSpineView

“In this chilling follow-up to Blindsighted, Sara Linton, her ex-husband, police chief Jeffrey Tolliver, and detective Lena Adams are caught in an evil web involving a young girl who commits suicide by forcing a cop to shoot her. Shouldering the political aftermath, Jeffrey struggles to understand the victim‘s desperation. So does Sara, the girl‘s pediatrician and now her coroner, who soon discovers that the suicide was linked to a brutal crime.”

Second book in the series.

I'm officially obsessed with this series. 😍

Kisscut was a bit harder to listen to than Blindsighted, given the nature of the storyline, but nothing that I couldn't handle.

I'm not feeling Lena though. She is driving me absolutely mad as a character and making all the worst choices as a cop. Someone tell me she gets easier to deal with 😕

I'm not feeling play time today. I just need to sit and listen to a few chapters and disconnect for a while.

I might not have the energy to play, but I have a swimming pool, half a bag of marshmallows and some straws. This might just give me the 10 mins I need 🤣

This was a great second book to this series.

Grant County Book 2.

I only thought the first book was a wild ride, but this book was even darker with more action. These books are not for everyone because the crimes are graphic and gory. Slaughter describes such heinous acts with such description that I cringed while reading sections of this book.

We learn more about the characters and the complexity of what haunts them and drives them to do their jobs.

Another book done! Another good read by Karin Slaughter.
This one really makes you look at your neighbors and coworkers a little different. Never know what happens behind closed doors.

#3books Karin Slaughter writes many books #withonewordtitles Faithless is the one I need to read next.

I've been a regular Wattpad user for a time now, and even though its hard to find good books which are not paid, this one's really good. The Wattys awards are here, if anyone interested can register and write and submit it by 30 September.❤️

Still working on #24B42020 If I finish one more book I will meet my goodreads goal.I‘m a little late to the party reading Slaughter,the main characters in the Grant county series ,Sara ,pediatrician & medical examiner,Jeffrey ,the police chief ,& Detective Lena are complex & interesting .Her thrillers are violent and graphic ,so be warned.

Didn‘t leave me wanting as terribly for the next book as the first did (although, can‘t imagine it will be too long). The series itself is violent and graphic, and in some ways the 2nd novel was more disturbing than the first) I still like Karin Slaughter‘s new work better (the Good Daughter is why I sought out more of her work) but it‘s really detailed and terrifying and it sucks you right in. -while I‘m casting the series, I pick Demi for Lena)

In the homestretch with this book. Perfect day for reading by the water #lakelife #thriller #suspense #crime I was trying to finish the last 40 pages last night but my eyes would not cooperate 😴

This is the second book in the Grant County series. I liked this one a lot, the continuation of the relationship between Sara and Jeffrey, the development of Lena and Sara's family. This was pretty graphic, so some readers may be triggered, but it was a well-done psychological thriller. I can't wait to read the third one (once the other patron returns it to the library - late!)

Karin Slaughter‘s books are quite graphic but I can‘t stop reading them. The storylines are suspenseful and keep you guessing. I also love the characters who are in the Grant County series. Also love that she‘s a Georgia girl 😍

Bone chilling.

It‘s shaping up to being a wonderful evening.

I‘m loving this series so far. I even made sure to put a hold on the next one a couple days ago and it came in! This book had me turning the pages so quickly. It is a little graphic so I wouldn‘t recommend it for everyone. 🌟🌟🌟🌟

The miles fly by when Karin Slaughter is involved! 🤗🏃‍♀️

😱😱😱😱 there was a wait time of two weeks for this book when I put it on hold this past Saturday. I was going to read a different book but now I can keep going with this series! I‘m so happy!

Still loving Karin Slaughter as I work my way through the Grant County series. ❤️ #ReadingUSA2019 #Georgia

Book 75 of my year 🎉🎉🎉 can I make it to 80? Lol probably not but let‘s try for funsies 🤓

I am restricting myself to one Slaughter a month. They are pretty addictive despite the repulsive details, and the horrible, almost unimaginable things that happen in this book. You need a strong stomach for these books. But I have and I am enjoying them and I love the twists and the main characters.

This is all your fault @swishandflick

The binge continues.
PS I love my new #ook Terry Pratchett bookmarks. ❤️❤️💚💜💛

No surprise here, I continue to be completely obsessed with Karin Slaughter's books! I'm consistently blown away by her seemingly effortless ability to navigate brutal crimes and complex, flawed characters in a way that keeps you engaged and guessing the entire time. Not for the faint of heart, but MAN is it riveting stuff.

Currently torn between wanting to read all of her books now and wanting to pace myself 🤔

Another good one!!! I'm becoming a fan. 💖 #Kisscut #KarinSlaughter #book #bookaholic #booklovers #ler #leitura #leitora #reading #instabook #instaread #instabooks #bookstagram #litsy #booklover #readingabook #vero #Sha2018 #taglivros

Here I go reading Grant County #2!!!

Slaughter has delivered another gripping story with depraved individuals. Seriously wonder how people sink so low to hurt children. Will need something light next.

Slaughter does it again with her deep dive into the disturbing subjects no one wants to acknowledge. This is the second in the Grant County series. If you are looking for a good suspense thriller and can get through the gut wrenching subject matter, these are for you.

Just finished this second book in the Grant County series on audio and it was excellent. Enjoying my first attempt at audiopuzzling as well (Did I just make up a new word?!?)🤓

I‘ve recently started reading Karin Slaughter‘s series of books and I am a little bit addicted! I finished this one last night and it was up to her usual high standard. As with all her books the violence was brutal and this one was particularly horrible to read at times because of the very dark subject matter but I think she‘s a fantastic writer and I raced through this in two days ! Now onto the next one !

#EmojiNov #day4 #💋 #Kiss I was going to interpret this prompt as “romance” but everyone else saw it as a kiss, so here‘s my kiss, just so happens to be the kind of kiss made with a sharp knife, but you go with what you got! I swear, I wouldn‘t want a shrink analyzing me by my bookshelves, I‘d have my phones tapped and people following me👀👮🏻👮🏻‍♀️🚔🚨

After reading 3 Karin Slaughter books (+1 novella), I'm definitely a fangirl. I could NOT put this book down. It's hard to read in some places because it is graphic but it is so thrilling and intense. Nothing is gratuitous, everything has a place in the story.

I love how complex Sara, Jeffrey, and Lena are. I love their complicated relationships. I really care about these three, even outside of their difficult jobs, and I want them to be happy.

YESSSSSSS 🙌🏻📖🎧 #fridayreads

A pick, though hard to listen to due to the subject matter of the crimes & the way that Slaughter writes them. I'm pretty sure I don't want to move to Grant County.😱I liked the narration-Kathleen Early was good w/the characters. Not your series if you can't do graphic/very dark, but if you can, Slaughter does a great job w/her books. Now if I can get my library to get book 3 on audio-what's up w/ just having random books in a series on audio?!☹️

#JuneTunz #CruelSummer Catching up on yesterday's photo challenges. The August heat makes for a very cruel summer in Grant County 🔥but life in Heartsdale, Georgia, seems pretty cruel at least in terms of the crimes that happen here. This is the 2nd book in the series-listening to the audiobook currently-& some very twisted stuff happens in this small Southern town.😱 On a less twisty note, this song totally takes me back to summer in the 80s.👍😀

Stopped at the coffeeshop on my way back from a morning meeting for a working brunch of avocado toast with spicy garlic aioli and cold brew coffee with coconut milk, while doing a little audio slide-finalizing for the workshop I'm facilitating tomorrow. Listening to the 2nd book in the Grant County series--I'm slowly working my way through them. 📚👍

Karin Slaughter is on display at the HarperCollins Global Publishing meeting in Miami!!

I noticed I hit my goal for the year several books ago! That's always exciting, but now it seems like I have hit a slump. Except for an audio, I haven't finished anything since the first few days of October. I just don't feel motivated to pick up anything or read for very long. I know it will pass but it makes me feel off, if you know what I mean. 😕

Grant County series #2 - This was unputdownable and #3 is already on hold. The story was gripping and sometimes painful to listen to. The crimes committed are heinous and it's hard to say I enjoyed it as the subject matter is not easy. I did, it's just weird to say. I seem to have a love/dislike situation with the regular characters but not in a way that makes me not want to continue with the series. Audio. 4⭐️

Hunting Pokemon while listening to audiobooks 👍🏻😀

When reviews say " I couldn't stomach this book it was so twisted" then I'm in. Turns out these books are in the mind f$$k zone and it's amazing

Book 2 in the Grant County series. I can't recommend this author enough, the stories are sensational, her writing is enthralling & her shocks just keep getting bigger & better. And she's as fantastic in person as well, very funny, engaging and so tiny! I know, I'm gushing. I'll stop now.Brilliant!😍
