Product Information

but AFs experience in telling stories on her podcast can only get her so far. the writing is repetitive and boring, the tropes are overused, the reveals are predictable, and the non-ending is the biggest offender of them all. Ashley Flowers is the CEO of her own company and hosts the popular true crime podcast, Crime Junkie, which I’ve often enjoyed. I was excited to get my hands on an early copy of her book. A man named Elliot Wallace killed Polly and Natalie, along with a number of other young girls. He was finally caught by a tip sent to the police by Margot.

Special thanks to NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group/ Ballantine for sharing this digital reviewer copy with me in exchange my honest thoughts.

In the book, January’s father Billy, in a fit of rage over discovering that he’s not the biological father of January or her brother, means to harm his wife, but injures his daughter instead.

Then the wife figures out what the husband did and he kills her. I really did appreciate the twists in this book! Let’s Discuss the Ending of All Good People Here As mentioned above, Casey Anthony‘s lawyer suggested that her father staged a fake crime after her daughter’s accidental drowning. As Margot digs deeper, she begins to suspect that there is something truly sinister lurking in the small community: a secret that endangers the lives of everyone involved…including Margot. Like I said before, there really aren't any surprises, and if there are, there's not enough suspenseful tension built up to make the reader care about the identity of the villain(s).Spoiler Discussion for All Good People Here Here are my major questions about All Good People Here: Ok, I feel like it is tough to just review the book and not to mention the other bits that come to my mind when reading this, so I will use this opportunity to include that.

Billy then intends to kill Margot when he realizes she knows he killed January. What really happened to January Jacobs in All Good People Here? All this aside, the storyline was captivating enough that it kept me going. Ashley always has been a good storyteller. I just didn’t buy the story in the end. To me, it was a lot more believable that the Wallace guy had done it. Having Billy be the killer seemed like it was just a tactic to catch the reader off-guard– a gotcha moment. I would rather have had Wallace be January’s killer and Billy be Krissy’s. Really, I would have believed almost any motive for Billy to kill Krissy– he found out he wasn’t the father of Jase and January, he believed her to be January’s killer all those years and then just snapped, he found out that she was having an affair with a woman–except for the one that was given.I understand him not saying anything in all the chaos of January’s death, but fifteen years later, when Krissy decides to come clean, he already knows.
