The Housemaid by Freida McFadden
4.0
This was definitely a page turner and for about 90% of the book I was HOOKED. But the ending was not only predictable, it also didn’t feel original. I got major Gone Girl vibes or even Girl on the Train Vibes. I had guessed the ending near the start of the book but decided to put those thoughts in the back of mind and hold out. In the end, I was pretty much right.
There were a few instances that shocked me but not to my core, it was more so a “how clever” reaction. The plot just kind of falls off and ends and I don’t feel like it gives Nina the redemption for her story nor Millie justice. Nonetheless,
I am nitpicking and overall enjoyed this book! I devoured it in a day so I think that speaks for itself in some ways. I am excited to read The Housemaids Secret and am hoping it lives up to the hype as it’s predecessor!
I have definitely already recommended this book to many friends who I feel like would enjoy this!
