The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell
3.0
⭐️⭐️⭐️ — 3.5
I really liked the story it wasn’t what I was expecting it to be. It was creepy cause how does one person get that much influence and take over a household over a matter of time. I didn’t like that it only scratched the surface of these characters and we didn’t really get to see any of Lucy’s past POV just current which didn’t feel super relevant to past plot lines. I get why but I wish we had more past POV from her not just Henry. Also they were all rushing back for the baby but why did they wait so long? It was good but it didn’t wow me like other books I’ve read by Lisa Jewel.
