Don't Let Him In
by Lisa Jewell
This is not a thriller, not a mystery, and honestly a disgrace to be called either.
I’ve read Lisa Jewell before and liked some of her work, but this one? Absolutely hated it.
There’s nothing redeeming here. I kept reading only to see how far this unbelievably stupid plot would stretch. The answer: very far.
The villain is the most obvious, disturbing man imaginable, yet somehow manages to fly under the radar until 65% in because he’s hot for his age? Characters are gaslit to the point of absurdity and this drags on until nearly the end. Even in the final chapters, the ridiculous charade doesn’t stop.
If you enjoy reading the most transparent cons play out endlessly while every single character buys the most childish excuses time and time again, then maybe this is for you.
Otherwise, save yourself the frustration.
