There are various poems and themes in this collection. 'Trophy Girl' explores the superficiality of fashion. On the other hand 'Reply from an Agony Aunt' is a cry for help from a young woman with low self-esteem. It is back to childhood days in 'Pinkeens' and a beautiful description of the garden in 'A Summer's Day.' There is sadness in 'Stopping Bye' the house of her birth and the feelings of a child is described in 'Lost Child.'Then there are several poems about birds and animals and their antics - the greedy jackdaw, and the terns on Sandymount strand getting ready for their annual trip south. The caring diligent cat in 'Mother Cat', the huge alligator with enormous jaws looking for food-which could be you, because that is what you are to him. No smiles there, he is what he is with no apologies.'Be Here Now' the guru advises the reader to be in the moment or it is gone forever. Then there is 'Needen' the playful donkey who surely lives in the moment.

Lee Child says it’s “stunning… certain to be a book of the year.” Kathy Reichs calls it “extraordinary… a major achievement.” Gillian Flynn says of Karin Slaughter: “I’d follow her anywhere.” Sisters. Strangers. Survivors. More than twenty years ago, Claire and Lydia’s teenaged sister Julia vanished without a trace. The two women have not spoken since, and now their lives could not be more different. Claire is the glamorous trophy wife of an Atlanta millionaire. Lydia, a single mother, dates an ex-con and struggles to make ends meet. But neither has recovered from the horror and heartbreak of their shared loss—a devastating wound that's cruelly ripped open when Claire's husband is killed. The disappearance of a teenage girl and the murder of a middle-aged man, almost a quarter-century apart: what could connect them? Forming a wary truce, the surviving sisters look to the past to find the truth, unearthing the secrets that destroyed their family all those years ago . . . and uncovering the possibility of redemption, and revenge, where they least expect it. Powerful, poignant, and utterly gripping, packed with indelible characters and unforgettable twists, Pretty Girls is a masterful novel from one of the finest writers working today.
