My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Thank You Net Galley for providing me a copy of The Stranger Diaries .

This is my first book by Elly Griffiths and now I’m off searching for all her works. The stranger diaries was an impressive Gothic fiction with surprisingly a school as the backdrop. The story begins with such a high impact and the gloomy dark feeling of the school with the wet Sussex weather adds the perfect backdrop. Spooky enough?? The story moves thru’ Clare, DS Kaur and Georgie, Clare’s daughter. There are parts of short story that we get to read and something that the murderer is copying into actions. I loved it that the author provided the complete short story in the end, it was incredible with that ominous ‘What happens now?’ feeling.
Harbinder Kaur was such a lovely character and it was fun reading about her quirky traits, hopefully she will be repeated in further stories.
