The Housemaid

Don't miss the New York Times and USA Today bestseller and addictive psychological thriller with a jaw-dropping twist that's burning up Instagram and TikTok--Freida McFadden's The Housemaid is perfect for fans of Ruth Ware, Lisa Jewell, and Verity.

Every day I clean the Winchesters' beautiful house top to bottom. I collect their daughter from school. And I cook a delicious meal for the whole family before heading up to eat alone in my tiny room on the top floor.

I try to ignore how Nina makes a mess just to watch me clean it up. How she tells strange lies about her own daughter. And how her husband Andrew seems more broken every day. But as I look into Andrew's handsome brown eyes, so full of pain, it's hard not to imagine what it would be like to live Nina's life. The walk-in closet, the fancy car, the perfect husband.

I only try on one of Nina's pristine white dresses once. Just to see what it's like. But she soon finds out... and by the time I realize my attic bedroom door only locks from the outside, it's far too late.

But I reassure myself: the Winchesters don't know who I really am.

They don't know what I'm capable of...

I have read too many similar thrillers and they all run together. The twists were predictable and the ending was just plain ridiculous. I have no interest in reading another Freida McFadden book and I really hope my book club stops picking these popcorn thrillers. 2.5 stars rounded up because it was an entertaining read.

I wasn’t really expecting to enjoy this book as much as I did, it’s not my usual style of book I’d pick out but after hearing all the hype about it I thought I’d give it a go. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it! I haven’t been able to finish a book this quickly in a long time (usually takes me weeks) but I just couldn’t stop reading it every spare second I had! The plot is interesting and kept my guessing right up until the ‘big reveal’ and it still managed to shock me! The prologue having a completely different meaning by the end of the book to what you believe when you first start reading is something I really enjoyed. I’m looking forward to carrying on with this series and I hope the next two books live up to the same standard as this one!
