Review:
After Anna is another great book from Lisa Scottoline. Whenever I pick up one of her books, I know I’m in for a quality entertaining read. After Anna didn’t disappoint.
I like that the book kept me highly entertained and guessing about the killer throughout. I was sure I knew who had done it, early on, but it turns out I was wrong. One of these days I’m going to get it right! I also enjoyed the drama that manipulative teenage girls can bring. There’s something special the author does with her mysteries that keep me captivated.
The one thing I didn’t like was that for a long time you don’t know if someone is a pervert or not. It made me feel uneasy.
Overall, another great novel from Lisa Scottoline. Definitely makes me want to keep reading her books!

I’ve read many of her books. So if you like one, you’ll probably like most of them, since they’re similar in theme. Enjoy!
