Review: Good Girls Don't Die by Christina Henry

Author: Christina Henry
Publisher: Berkley
Publication Date: November 2023

Celia wakes up in a house that’s supposed to be hers. There’s a little girl who claims to be her daughter and a man who claims to be her husband, but Celia knows this family—and this life—is not hers…
Allie is supposed to be on a fun weekend trip—but then her friend’s boyfriend unexpectedly invites the group to a remote cabin in the woods. No one else believes Allie, but she is sure that something about this trip is very, very wrong…

Maggie just wants to be home with her daughter, but she’s in a dangerous situation and she doesn’t know who put her there or why. She’ll have to fight with everything she has to survive…

Three women. Three stories. Only one way out. This captivating novel will keep readers guessing until the very end.

This is going to be brief.  I wish I could say I liked this one, but I just didn't.  The story is through three different women's stories.  They all find themselves in scenarios where they know something is wrong and must do what they can to survive.  Once you are in the the second woman's story, you can pretty much guess what is going on.  The story had great potential and I did want to see where it was going.  By the third part, I was tired. I get how some women feel, but I'm tired of reading books where I am constantly hit over the head that all men are misogynistic pigs.  The ending was so bad.  I've seen this in a movie already. The reveal felt very Scooby Doo villain.  And then it just ends.  I don't recommend this one.
