YO, THIS WAS WILD.

I've been feeling a bit 'bleugh' and needed something easy to read. I picked up The Housemaid thinking it was just another empty-head thriller - and for the first half that's what I got. The set up for this has you believing it's just another run of the mill thriller - it has all the tropes and characters you expect.

I'm so glad I stuck with it because things really flip after the halfway point and I devoured the last 50% when things got cray-cray.

The Housemaid is one of those books that is better the less you know - but stick with it for the twist!

Throughout reading this I couldn't believe it had got a sequel... I now understand why and I will most probably read it at some point.

I'm interested in reading more from Freida McFadden - I haven't decided yet but she could have the potential to be an auto-buy author for me. Sometimes you just need a fun, easy thriller.

This book omg. At first it makes you think Nina is the bad guy but it was all Andrew. Im glad with the ending that Millie and Nina both got out and Nina was even going to let herself get arrested for Andrew’s death when Millie was the one to let him die.
