The Wife Upstairs by Freida McFadden
3.0
dark mysterious medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

The urge to punch every single character in this book was real. I lost count of how many times I muttered, 'You’ve got to be kidding me!' while reading. Red flags were everywhere, yet these people just kept making terrible decisions. I wasn’t completely satisfied with the story. Victoria’s character was way too trusting and gullible, which left me feeling frustrated and impatient. That said, it was still a well-executed and engaging read overall.
