Carter, author of At Your Door “This was quite the page turner. Only took me a few hours to finish… Can't wait to read more from Rachel. She's a wonderful author.” “Great book, haven’t wanted to put it down! Definitely stayed up way too late reading this enthralling read.” “A wonderfully atmospheric read.” “Great crime novel with lots of twists and turns! Honestly did not predict what would happen next, which is rare since I read so many mysteries.” “I read it in one day! I’d recommend Little Girls Tell Tales to those who like slow-burning suspense novels rather than the high-octane, big-twist version” “This book is a slow burn full of subtle twists and social commentary… Bennett's prose is beautiful and descriptive, and the characters are realistic and likeable… anyone looking for complex family drama, well-thought out mystery, this is the book for you. A beautiful read with a satisfying conclusion.”
