On this episode of Complicated Conversations, we welcome Alice Feeney – a New York Times million-copy bestselling author – to discuss her new novel, Good Bad Girl. Known as the “queen of twists,” Feeney’s novel is another thrilling mystery filled with drama, her trademark surprises, and complex female characters.
A book dedicated to “daughters of mothers of daughters” and set on Mother’s Day, Good Bad Girl allowed us to dig deep with Alice about daughterhood and the range of emotions that evokes for her characters (and us!). We also chat about nuance in character development – how “sometimes bad things happen to good people, so good people have to do bad things”; the symbolism of ladybugs in the novel; her writing process; and the serendipitous way in which Alice helped Carinn continue with her own writing!
Good Bad Girl is out now. Buy it, read it, share it, and listen to our spoiler-free interview with the incredible Alice Feeney wherever you get your podcasts.
