The Good Daughter: A Novel | Karin Slaughter
post image

Hello and welcome to #Scarathlon2020! If you have been tagged in this post, you are on #TeamSlaughter! If you have signed up, but have not yet been tagged - please do not worry - you will be placed. We will be adding to the teams throughout the month to keep them even.

A few things to note about #TeamSlaughter will be listed down below. Please don‘t hesitate to ask any questions.

Once again - Welcome, and Good luck! 🖤

Clwojick Throughout the month of October we will be battling against @StayCurious and her team #TeamHarkness! They will have the same opportunity to gain points as we do, so we‘ve got to bring our all if we want to win! 4y
Clwojick You will have the option to choose between two team #BuddyReads. You can read both, however only the first one you read will be worth the 50 points. If you read the second book it will be only worth the teamread value of 15 points. Your 1st choice is The Good Daughter by Karin Slaughter. ⚠️Please be advised that this book has a lot of trigger warnings! Research before reading if you have triggers⚠️ 4y
Clwojick Your 2nd #buddyread choice is On What Grounds by Cleo Coyle, which is a coffeehouse cozy. Light mystery, which shouldn‘t have any triggers. Please choose whichever works best for you. 🎃 4y

Clwojick Speaking of the #TeamTheme genres... #TeamSlaughter is all about #Mystery, #Thrillers #Suspense #Cozy #TrueCrime and #Detective books. Our competitors over at #TeamHarkness will have the genres of Horror, Paranormal, Vampires, Witches, and Monsters. Some books may cover both teams genres, so use your judgement and calculate your points accordingly. We are not going to double check every post. (edited) 4y
Clwojick I‘ll be posting more about tracking points shortly, but this should be enough info to get you started! Happy planning guys! I can‘t wait to see what your reading plans will be! 4y
Clwojick @ozma.of.oz I may have tagged you twice, but I wasn't sure if it worked the first time. (edited) 4y
rsteve388 Exciting!! #TeamSlaughter so ready! How.do.we decide the group read?! 4y
Clwojick @rsteve388 There are two options for each member to choose from, listed up above. The Good Daughter and On What Grounds. You can read either one and count it towards your team buddy read points of 50 pts. 4y
Sarahreadstoomuch Yay!! So glad to be #teamslaughter again this year! I‘m so ready to get started! 4y
rsteve388 @Clwojick Thank you! I couldn't read the picture without my glasses :( haha thanks for writing it out. 4y
Curly_Reader Yay!! #teamslaughter I‘m excited!!❤️❤️ 4y
PathfinderNicole Yay!!!! I‘m so excited #TeamSlaughter 😍. I actually just bought On What Grounds last month but hadn‘t gotten around to reading it yet so that‘s perfect 😂 4y
Laughterhp Yay! I‘m excited to be on #TeamSlaughter this year! 4y
JenlovesJT47 Are you still taking signups? 4y
Texreader Awesome!! So excited to play for the first time (I loved the Christmas game!). I‘ll start researching both books to make my decision for the #buddyread 4y
Clwojick @JenlovesJT47 Absolutely! 4y
Clwojick @PathfinderNicole Awesome! 🤗 4y
Liatrek Omg I‘m so excited! Had a lot of fun last year and doing this introduced me to one of my new favorite authors Karin Slaughter❤️ Thank you for hosting! 4y
JenReadsAlot I'm so excited to be joining #TeamSlaughter this year! 4y
RainyDayReading Woo #TeamSlaughter 😁 Out of curiosity, would stories about a haunted house be considered more so fitting our theme or #TeamHarkness theme? I know you said some books may cover both genres, but I wasn‘t sure if there was automatically a category that haunted houses would fall into. 4y
Scochrane26 I‘m excited to binge on Agatha Christie! I have so many of hers that I haven‘t read yet. I already made a list of other books I can use, too. 4y
Clwojick @Scochrane26 I love Christies shorts too! My library has a ton of them on audio, and theyre perfect for a short listen while you're doing the dishes or cooking or whatever. 4y
Clwojick @RainyDayReading I'd say it depends on if its actually haunted, or if it's just creepy. Paranormal falls more into #TeamHarkness, however something like Turn of the Key or Lock Every Door would definitely be more suspense and fall into #TeamSlaughter. Just use your judgement as best as possible. 4y
RainyDayReading @Clwojick Okay awesome! I‘ll do my best 😁 4y
Inkblotsandcoffeestains I may have had a typo on my own litsy name for the google form to sign up 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 I‘m just guessing inkblotsanxcoffeestains is actually me?? Lol but figured I‘d check in before assuming and earning points for the wrong team 4y
Clwojick @Inkblotsandcoffeestains Oh yeah! that was totally my fault. thanks for catching that though. 4y
MatchlessMarie Yessss! I‘m so happy to be on this team! 🕵🏻‍♀️ 4y
Clwojick @MatchlessMarie We‘re so happy to have you!!! 🎃 4y
JenlovesJT47 Yay!! 🤗 4y
Moony @Clwojick and @Scochrane26 so I'm in the right team because I have also many unread stories by Agatha Christie. Most of Hercule Poirot. It's reading time in october!!! *yeah* 4y
Andrew65 We got this! Welcome everyone 😍 With Will Trent on our side and Sara Linton how can we fail 🤣 (edited) 4y
Charityann Yay!😁 4y
kezzlou85 Ooh yay im #TeamSlaughter again. I've already read The Good Daughter, it's very good. So will try and find the other one. 4y
Clwojick @Lizpixie! Welcome to Team Slaughter!!! 4y
Lizpixie Woohoo! I‘ve got tons of books on my #MountTBRShelvesOfDoom that will be perfect for this🔪🚬🪓🧨 4y
thegreensofa Yay! So excited!!! 😆 Go #TeamSlaughter 🔪🎃. Thank you! 👏🏻👏🏻 4y
CocoReads Pretty excited! I‘ve been wanting to Red The Good Daughter anyway. I‘ll work of my tbr this weekend. Nothing makes me happier than rearranging my lists and book piles. 4y
Sace So I'm double checking.... I am team slaughter? 4y
Clwojick @hestapleton Were you not tagged in this one? You're not the firsts to mention not being tagged. Not sure if it's because I tagged everyone on the website instead of the app. You're on #TeamSlaughter. 4y
Clwojick @Sace Yes! 👋 4y
AsYouWish I have already read On What Grounds, but haven‘t read the rest of the series. If I read the next book, Through the Grinder, would it still count for the extra points? 4y
Clwojick @AsYouWish Sure, I think that's fair. 4y
AsYouWish @Clwojick Yay!! I have been looking for a reason to get back to that series!!! 4y
Hestapleton @Clwojick now I see the tag thank you!! Ready to make my bujo spread!! 4y
FantasyChick Yes!!! Gonna be another great time on #teamslaughter 🔪🔪 Now to get my TBR prepped and ready for all the readathons. Gotta #stackthosepoints 😈😈 4y
BarkingMadRead I may have to update my TBR pile lol I‘ll check through them and see! 4y
Sleepswithbooks YESSSSSSSSS!!!! I‘M SOOOOO EXCITED 🔪🔪🔪 (edited) 4y
Clwojick @FantasyChick if you check my profile, I just posted a Readathon tracker to help with stacking points. The link is in the profile. I can‘t wait for the weekend of the 23rd! It‘s going to be wild! There‘s #RIPreadathon, #24B4Monday, #Deweys24 (Saturday), #Horrorathon (starts Sunday) and the monthlong ones #Screamathon #Sbooktober and #Gothtober 😂 4y
BarkingMadRead Ordered On What Grounds, and got it used but with Prime so I‘m kinda happy dancing here 4y
Clwojick @Hestapleton can‘t wait to see it! 4y
Clwojick @Stacypatrice I couldn‘t resist choosing another Slaughter this year. 👻 4y
Sleepswithbooks @Clwojick Let‘s slaughter it upppppp #readerswhoslaughter 🔪😂 4y
hes7 Woohoo! (And thanks for picking two buddy reads! I‘m not feeling a reread of the Slaughter, but a cozy mystery sounds just right.) 4y
Read4life Super excited to be on #teamslaughter 🔪 I have both of these books on my shelves! 🤓 4y
Andrew65 I will be going for The Good Daughter, love Karin Slaughter books but not read any standalones. 4y
Clwojick @hes7 yay! I‘m surprised you haven‘t read both! Lol. I know Slaughter is a little too dark for some, so I wanted to offer another option.🕷 4y
Clwojick @Read4life woohoo! That‘s awesome! I still have to pick up both 🖤 4y
Clwojick @Andrew65 I‘ll probably read both, but I‘m definitely reading A Good Daughter. I think I‘ve only read her series as well... since she wrote a prequel to Pretty Girls. 4y
Clwojick @candc320 Welcome to #TeamSlaughter! 💃🏻🕷🎃 4y
candc320 So excited!! I just put a hold on the audiobook version of The Good Daughter and should have it in about 2 weeks! 4y

Clwojick @Squidget I‘m glad too! It‘ll be a blast! 4y

Clwojick @The.Great.Catsby Welcome! 🖤 Please see my posts from last night for all the event details, including the point system, and some tips and tricks. (edited) 4y
ferskner Thank you @Clwojick! It's funny, I thought that my tastes would have put me solidly into one team, but now that I see the split I definitely span both. But I'm thrilled to concentrate on all the mysteries and thrillers on my shelves this month! 4y
Clwojick @LauraRenae Hey! Just seen your sign up form now! Welcome to team slaughter! Read the details above, and then I‘ll tag you in a few more posts with the details! Feel free to back date any points for books you‘ve already read since the first! 4y

Soubhiville I‘ve been thinking of rereading this too! 5y

tournevis @wideeyedreader It's a great movie! I love it! It's just that the plot is a pretext for amazing song numbers, is all. 5y
