The Beloved Daughter by Alana Terry was one of the best books I have read in a long time. When I was first contacted by the author I thought it sound like it would be a good book to read but I never expect to be touched so deeply by the book. I took me about a chapter to get into the story and after that I was hooked and literally read the whole book while I was at work one day because I had to know how it ended. I felt so bad for all the characters and yet at the same time I was so proud of most of the characters. I do have say that some of the characters did shock me and weren’t who I thought they were but I love when that happens because it so rarely happens anymore with the amount of books I read. I can’t say more because I refuse to give the ending away but I recommend this book to everyone because it is amazing and so thought provoking at the same time.
