The Woman in the Window: A Novel by A.J. Finn

1.0

This book was a huge disappointment for me. It started quite promising with a twist on "Rear Window", I liked the addition of agoraphobia. What I didn't like was literally everything else. The heavy alcoholism. The drug abuse. The protagonist. Yes, I don't have to like protagonists, I am well aware of that, but I disliked her intensly and found her to be immensly stupid. I'm sorry but I like my women to be capable and strong and I like them to learn from their mistakes. To improve. I want to know that this is possible, to get better, to do better. I like to see hope somewhere, at least a little bit. I nearly tossed it but thriller-wise it did somewhat okay and offered decent plot-twists that kept me hanging in there. But - I would have missed nothing if I wouldn't have finished it.
