Search - Beyond Reach (Grant County, Bk 6)

I love Karin Slaughter's series but this book was a little off for me. I don't really like Lena as a character, even with all she has been through and this book is all about her. I love Sara and how strong she is, but in this book she is weaker emotionally. For those of you that have read the ending - read the acknowledgments. The last two paragraphs are from Karin asking readers to go to a website where there is a letter from her explaining why she did what she did and more. But don't go there until you have read the entire book!

This book was just..WOW! Usual Slaughter with it's twists and turns throughout. A really well and great written plot and story. The ending to this one though just STUNNED me. My mouth literally dropped open. I'm not sure what it will mean for the future of the Grant County series. For anyone that's read the rest of the books in the series..prepare yourselves for the ending. Not at all how I expected it to end!

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ok at first i thought wasn't going to be able to enjoy the book because it kept switching from past to present and i really don't like that. but now i see that it was the only to really read this book.

lena finds herself in some trouble and of course jeffery is running to her side. but this time, the trouble she's in may just be too much for jeffery to handle.

in the end, secrets are revealed, a couple gets a wish granted, and someone dies.

the ending is extremely shocking!!!!!!!!!!!

I am literally stunned. I did not expect this at all, and am sitting here with my jaw on the ground. O M G . Ok, great continuation of the Grant County series, as always from Karin Slaughter. At first it is a little confusing, with the chapters alternating from past to present and back again. But once you get into this flow, you can't put it down.

At the shocking end, Karin directs you to a website where she has a letter detailing why she ended the book this way:

The letter is definitely worth reading, but do NOT read it until you have read the book! Contains major spoilers.

I have a great love/hate relationship with this book. As usual, the novel was a gripping read – kept me on my toes and not wanting to put the book down until I had finished it. I read the greater majority of the book in a 4 hour time period.

The book was well written, as always, a great plot… and lots of twists and turns. Things that you’ve taken at face value since the inception of the series will be turned upside down leaving you feeling as much turmoil as the characters in the novel. Right up until the end – which is an absolutely heartbreaking end to the series. I seriously tossed the book into the backseat of the car I was riding in when I finished it and raspberried the book! LOL Yes, I was that annoyed by the end.

The characters that anyone who has read the series have come to know and love are shaken, and it won’t be until the very end that you’ll find the heartbreaking conclusion to the series.

I have to give this book the usual 5 stars because it truly is a wonderful novel. Entertaining, thought-provoking, and keeps you guessing.

excellent book in the series.
