Book Review: Darling Girls by Sally Hepworth

  Darling Girls by Sally Hepworth

  Rating: ⭐⭐⭐

A Twisting Tale with a Confusing Conclusion

I recently finished Darling Girls by Sally Hepworth, and while it was a captivating read, I found myself left feeling a bit confused by the ending. The novel tells the story of three foster sisters, Jessica, Norah, and Alicia, who are forced to confront the dark secrets of their childhood when a body is discovered beneath their former home.

Hepworth's writing is undeniably compelling. She skillfully weaves together the sisters' past and present, revealing the complexities of their relationships and the lasting impact of their traumatic experiences. I found myself deeply invested in their stories and eager to uncover the truth.

However, the ending felt a bit rushed and confusing. The plot twists were unexpected, but they didn't always feel organic or satisfying. I found myself left with more questions than answers, which was a bit disappointing.

Overall, I would give Darling Girls a 3 out of 5 stars. It's a well-written novel with intriguing characters and a compelling plot. However, the confusing ending slightly detracts from the overall experience. If you're looking for a psychological thriller with a satisfying conclusion, you may want to consider other options.
