Libby gets left a house on her 25th birthday and starts to explore her history prior to being adopted. A story of abuse and neglect of her and other children at the hands of a man who has taken over their house. Dark, weird and a bit twisty. Left on a bit of a cliffhanger
Another awesome Lisa Jewell book! This kept me enthralled while reading on vacation. This is a 4.5 stars for me! I'm ready to start the sequel.

¡Muy entretenido!
Lo escuché en formato audiolibro, y aunque siempre preferiré leer en físico o libro electrónico, con esta novela ha sido todo un acierto.
Está bastante bien narrado a tres voces, lo que genera mucha inmersión.
En cuanto a la trama en sí, me pareció original y creepy en el buen sentido. Además, hubo bastantes plot twist que no me ví venir.
No le doy más puntuación porque a pesar de ser un libro muy entretenido, fácil de leer/escuchar y que en más de una ocasión me sacó una sonrisa, no me ha calado más hondo, no me ha dicho nada nuevo.
Y probablemente, será una historia que habré olvidado de aquí a un par de años.
Aún así, lo recomiendo si te apetece una lectura ligera y para pasar el rato, o como en mi caso, si estás buscando un audiolibro con el que llenar los huecos de tu vida en los que no tienes tiempo de sentarte a leer.

great book although the other 2 lisa jewell books i read were top tier this one was still really good and i enjoyed it and it kept me invested. I am SO SO excited to read the sequel although Im not sure what the plot could be because it answered everything in this book. The last 100 pages of this book were WILD. The first bit was so good as well with the dual timeline with 3 different characters. I definitely found my favorite to be the Lucy one. The plot twist at the end were done really good some i did not see coming which definitely props this book up but overall I enjoyed this book and Lisa Jewell will forever be one of if not my favorite author every she was the one who got me back into reading
I AM SO CONFUSED in the beginning. I was like 'who the hell is he'—'who the hell is she'. The way Lisa Jewell made the book with 3 povs maybe is a factor why I am damn hell confused.
"The Thomsens were going nowhere."
When I stumbled upon the Thomsens joining the lil "get together", I really smelled something fishy. Everything's fishy. The twist? Not really THAT shocking. The plot? GOOD. At first, I really thought it's like a cult thing or something

Was not a huge fan of this one. It was hard for me to get into.
