I really disliked the main character so I wasn't that interested in finishing it.

Little Girls Sleeping is a well written, tightly plotted, police procedure with an interesting protagonist. Looking forward to reading the next one in the series

I would like to thank Bookouture & NetGalley for providing an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest and fair review.

This was the first book i read when i started to get into reading and it definitely did not disappoint! I loved this book and i definitely want to read the other books in the series!

The only reason why its 4 stars instead of 5 would be because i expected the end to be a little more shocking with who the killer was but nevertheless it was a really good read!

This was a decent start to a series and was definitely interesting and intriguing enough that I wanted to read it and want to continue on with it. However, there were a few things that were just a bit too convenient and the end a little ridiculous to merit a higher rating. I'm hoping it isn't a trend in these books but we will see.

This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews I received this book for free from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Thank you to Bookouture for my copy of this book via Netgalley and for letting me take part of this book. Detective books are now one of my favourite genres so I was excited to start a new Detective series.

I found it difficult to get into this book but after about 10-15% I was HOOKED. I raced through the rest of the book and really struggled to put it down. There were a few times at the beginning where the author tells some really well-known crime information. If you haven't read or watched much crime based then this will be super helpful. I have read and watched a lot of crime so a lot of it was old hat for me.

Detective Katie Scott was an easy character to like. She has been through a lot and is trying to readjust to her new life. I also loved Katie's dog Cisco. Katie is determined and hard working. She risks her own life more than once in this book to bring justice for the little girls and their families.

Katie meets a range of people in the department and I hope that we will get to see these relationships grow as the series develops. I really liked the coroner, Dr Dean. He was interesting and really helpful to Katie. I think he is going to be a big supporter of her. I also loved the CSI Supervisor Jack Blackburn. I feel like this is going to be an interesting relationship. I also pictured Steve McGarrett from Hawaii Five-O (super hot)!

This book was addictive and gripping I was constantly turning page after page because I just needed to know what happened next. I am excited to see what happens next for Detective Scott.
