About this deal

I listened to the audiobook and thought the narrator did a wonderful job. Cleverly crafted, well thought out, and perfectly paced, Daisy Darker is an intelligent thriller which never disappointed.

I love the ominous rhyme on the wall. It's probably my favorite part of the book. The last part of it goes like this...😬 But Conor said that Daisy would have died soon anyway, because of her heart condition. He suggested they cover up their involvement by throwing Daisy over the cliff. Rose and Lily agree that this is the only choice. They fling her off the edge of the cliff into the sea.

First of all, I hated all of the characters which is normally not a problem for me if their interesting and intriguing but this cast was neither of those things.

Conor finally speaks to Daisy say saying he’s sorry for what’s happening. A new tape shows up. It says “see me” and is set on Halloween night 1988, a night Daisy wishes she could forget.stars : Many readers are eager to read this book and (almost) everyone describes it as exceptionnal, but I was far from impressed.

The narrator, Daisy, was born with a heart condition that totals several times she died, but successfully resuscitated. She reveals the secrets and gives insight to each character as suspicions rise over the course of the book. The beauty, strength and audacity of her beautiful sisters will have you feeling sorrow for her and her weaknesses. I would say that this book is both character driven and plot driven because everything is so complex. There is such an evolution in what you think or suspect of the various characters and it’s just not a clean cut story at all. I loved seeing the plot unfold and take drastic twists and turns and I also really enjoyed reading about the characters, their lies, their secrets and the ultimate reveal at the end which I really did not see coming. As you can probably tell from this long review, I honestly enjoyed this book immensely and was so satisfied that it turned out to be such a good book because I had very big expectations. It exceeded my expectations and I just had such a great time reading it.Trixie Darker: Trixie is Lily’s teenage daughter and she was such a cute and bookish character. Her mother is awful, but Trixie isn’t and I think that’s why I really enjoyed reading about her, especially because I feel like she and Daisy had a good relationship as they were both kind of outcasts in their family. Fans of Agatha Christie’s classic And Then There Were None will savor this, but Feeney makes it so much more than a witty homage.” If only the Darker family had heeded those words, they might not have found themselves on a private, isolated island, at Halloween with a killer amongst them, and when the tide comes in, they will be isolated from the mainland for 8 hours - plenty of time for things to go badly wrong! Daisy- bless her heart- was born broken. She has a congenital heart defect and wasn’t expected to live beyond her childhood years. She was never allowed to go anywhere or have the fun her sisters did…
