The Housemaid by Freida McFadden
3.75
dark mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

This story is filled with intriguing plot twists and mystery, though I found myself predicting much of it, which led me to lower my rating slightly. From the beginning, I had an instant connection with Nina, while I found Millie’s character frustrating,
especially her home-wrecking tendencies. It was gratifying when her illusions were shattered, bringing her back to reality—a satisfying moment I had anticipated
Despite the predictability, the story flowed effortlessly, keeping me engaged and eager to read more. Overall, it's a well-crafted and enjoyable read.
