The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell

4.0

Was such an interesting read, that had a few good twists and turns! My only question about this book is about Henry and Lucy's mother and how she was so easily convinced to like David and welcome him in. The author often said "David was charismatic" and other adjectives, but never really showed us in the beginning how he could be so convincing to let an entire family bring all these people in. As the reader, I also felt like we knew so little about the mother to make this part believable as well. Aside from this, I thought it was really interesting and a quick entertaining read!
