Based on the acknowledgments, I think this was inspired by true events. Books like that sometimes feel sensationalized, but this one wasn't, and even the twists at the end felt authentic. I think that Thomas's straight-forward prose style has much to do with how readable this is. I will absolutely read Little Monsters, especially based on the teaser first chapter at the end of the paperback copy of The Darkest Corners.

4.5/5 stars! Another Kara Thomas book I loved! I absolutely eat up her stories and this one was no different. The plot was so engaging and I didn't see the twist coming at all!! Can't wait to read more from her.

I am Kara Thomas STAN. This book, as well as her Little Monsters book, are in my top ten recommended books. It is a very easy read with a great plot twist. It is a great read for anyone, can't recommend it enough. 3.9/5 overall rating.
