The Housemaid by Freida McFadden

dark inspiring reflective sad tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

This book would’ve been a 5 star if I had liked the style of narrative as well. It really feels like reading the Meg Cabot books I used to read when I was 12, except maybe a little darker? Which, quite honestly, I didn’t like. Because of that it took a little bit of convincing to get into this book when I first started reading it, but once I did it really took off. 

It’s fast paced and I really enjoyed the read. I kept wishing to be available to read it again and again. It was a great experience.
