    To read more reviews go to Reviews Page "Pajalic takes on a weighty issues without being heavyhanded. She knows what she's writing about and as a result the story comes across as sincere and insightful." SYDNEY MORNING HERALD "The Good Daughter is the debut novel from new Melbourne author Amra Pajalic and it's one you won't want to miss! It's a funny and honest story about Sahiba, a teen girl growing up in Melbourne's western suburbs who's trying to deal with family traditions and her own desire to do what she wants. (5 stars)."
