As a thriller lover it can be difficult to blow my mind and make me fall back in love with reading, but Freida McFadden so easily achieved that with The Housemaid.
Every potential plot hole was filled with flawlessly thought out explanations, those TWISTS I just did not see every time, not knowing who I could trust & what everyone's motive was... just perfect.
The second book has been instantly ordered and I cannot wait to read more by Freida McFadden; any recommendations are more than welcome!
Moderate: Gaslighting, Infertility, Sexual violence, Body shaming, Mental illness, and Toxic relationship
