The first plot twist scared me but you can't have 500000 plot twists because then the reader loses track of what's real. I have zero clue what just happened and that just got worse and worse every sentence. Bad. ( )

I can't describe how much I loved this book! I found myself thinking about it all day while I was working and anxious to listen to it when I was on my way home. I would give it 6 stars if I could and recommend it to anyone who loves a good mystery that is full of twists! ( )

The premise of the book sounded interesting but the execution of it just didn’t do it for me. I kept reading on because I wanted to find out what happened, but there were many parts that just didn’t seem plausible, such as the police not pushing more on the investigation and her ability to not get additional tests/DNA tests done. I wanted to really like this book, but the plot had too many holes to thoroughly enjoy without questions.

Creepy and twisty. I liked it. ( )

This was a really good psychological thriller and although I never really warmed to any of the characters, I think perhaps there was a very good reason for that. The main character, Bec, is an imposter and the Winter family are as dysfunctional as they come, perhaps not on the outside but when you scratch the surface you find out that appearances can be very deceptive.

The main character is caught shoplifting and, as she bears a striking resemblance to a missing teenager, she claims to be Bec Winter to get off with the shoplifting charge. The detective who was investigating Bec's disappearance obviously needs to find out where she has been for the last eleven years; questions that only the real Bec Winter could answer. The fake Bec does her best to evade questions and refuse DNA tests, and then her family turn up to collect her. Surely a mother would recognise that this imposter is not her daughter? As the family welcome fake-Bec with open arms the plot does indeed thicken.

My brain went into overdrive as I considered every scenario but the one that Anna Snoekstra had written whilst trying to work out the outcome of the book. I kept thinking that someone would realise she wasn't the real Bec or perhaps she was the real Bec and didn't realise it. I was absolutely floored as the book reached its conclusion so I think Only Daughter will go down very well with lovers of twisty psychological fiction.
