Hi my name is Debra and I just discovered goodreads and this group. I had never heard of Karin Slughter until I was shopping a local retail store and when you make a purchase you get a free book. Well my free book was one of the early Grant County books - i think it was Faithless- but I read that and was instantley hooked. I had to start from the beginning and read them all. The characters are awesome, Lena Adams-wow! and the plots-that is some sick and disturbing stuff-which is exactly why I love it. I just finished Criminal and cannot wait for her next one. And the killer, OMG, that was some sick torture. While I wait for more of her books to come out, I'm always looking for another author who is similer in style. A couple I like are:Tami Hoag, Chealsea Cain, Lisa Gardner, and Harlan Coben (he is great!). Anyway, that's my story. Thanks!
Hi Debra, I love Karin Slaughter....my favorite character is Will Trent. But if you are looking for a good series with some disturbing storylines you may want to look at this series....Taylor Jackson by J.T. Ellison. Here are the books and in the proper reading order....happy reading!
Hi there, I have read and love all of Karin's books, I have just started Criminal. Glad to have found this group.

So true! I read the first J T Ellison book, and all I can say is wow. I plan to read many more books from this author.
Hello! Just started reading Karin S books and I love her books! Love love love the Will Trent series! Love Will love him and Sara together!
Welcome!I agree, I love Will Trent. One of my all time favorite characters. I think him and Sara fit together perfectly.
I read through both series by Karin Slaughter very quickly. They are addicting. Just finished Unseen and can't wait for another. I'm sure that will be a while though, so need some recommendations for other reading in the meantime. Going to check out J.T. Ellison and others mentioned right now. Please make more suggestions.
Debbie, Lisa Gardner would be my choice. I think her writing is very similar to Karin Slaughter. I think you would enjoy her. Also might want to try Erica Spindler, Wendy Corsi Staub or Catherine Coulter. JT Ellison is also a good choice.
Hello everyone! I'm new to goodreads and to this group, so I thought I'd post a brief introduction. I'm a 29 year-old Floridian who (obviously) loves to read :-) My favorite authors are David Baldacci, Lisa Gardner, James Rollins, Greg Iles, and of course Karin Slaughter. I'm currently re-reading some of the Will Trent series to refresh my memory before I purchase Unseen. So excited to read the new book! Anyways, hope y'all are having a great day! :-)
Hey everybody! I just discovered this group, so I figured I'd introduce myself. My name is Kailee, & I'm a 20 year old college student that loves to read. I randomly discovered the 1st Will Trent book at Goodwill this summer, & I've read up to Criminal since then. I've already ordered the Grant County series too & can't wait to start them!
Welcome Kailee. Nice to have you in the group. Both of her series are extremely good. I must say Will Trent is my favorite. Grant County is very good as well and is a great lead in to Will Trent. You will love them.

hello everyone, My name is Sheri and I was just introduced to the Karin Slaughter series in the last couple of months and so far have read all of the Grant county series and have read all but Unseen of the Atlanta series. I am totally addicted. I have putting reading unseen off because the next book won't come out until 2015 and it is a long time to wait. but I won't wait much longer. Got the book from the library and it is just waiting to be read.
Hi Sheri, Karin Slaughter is my absolutely my favorite author. I have read her book a couple of time each. I love Will Trent. I love Sarah and Will together. Your right 2015 is a long time to wait. She does have her new book coming out in June Cop Town.
yes looking forward to cop town. I am just about done with Unseen and I am absolutely loving it. I love Will and Sara. The only other Author I can say I love more is J.D Robb the In Death series.
Hi Sheri,Loe Karin Slaughter books. The Will Trent Series are my favs. Love Will and Sarah! Can't wait for her new book.
I love Will and Sarah as well and hate that the next book won't be until 2015. I am looking forward to Cop Town as well
