Maybe 3.5 stars? It wasn’t bad but not as good as other books by the author. Definitely kept my interest! If you like Lisa you will probably enjoy this book.

I was half way into reading this book and I kept wondering where the story was going to take us. I felt like we kept getting little bits of information without fully understanding the main plot of the book other than a bunch of neighbors who spy and obsess over one another!

We get to read from multiple different perspectives and I thought that provided a good insight to what everyone was internally going through. There were a few twists I did not see coming and a few that were very obvious. Lisa Jewell is a hit or miss for me and this one was a hit for me!

I overall enjoyed the pace, the mystery and the story behind it all! A solid 4 star read!

Lisa Jewell!! What an absolutely incredible book you have written. One of your absolute best and one of the best thrillers I've ever read. The storytelling was kn a level I can't even explain and the ending... chefs fucking kiss!! Well done!
