Review of 'Girl A' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

[b:Girl A|55271524|Girl A|Abigail Dean|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1599562435l/55271524.SY75.jpg|73790333] failed to build a convincing universe and provoked no psychological tension. After learning of the children's confinement by their abusive parents at the very beginning of the story, what follows is a plodding, nonsensical backstory interspersed with the present time's mundane probate drama. Nothing rang true about either of the parents, which made it hard for the rest of the story to fall into place. Overall the story was hard to follow, and rapidly flitting between points in the past and the present left little opportunity for connection with the characters. Would not recommend.
