A review by godfrina
The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell

challenging dark sad tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

It made me very uncomfortable. (yes, it's a thriller but my God, the topic of oppression ugh)
Yet, I wanted to know how the stories will weave together. While the multiple stories took a while to set up, the ending felt almost rushed.
