so-soThis one was just okay for me. It was pretty predictable and there was t anything that was overly new and exciting to me. It felt like stories I‘ve read before in some way or another and the characters were very unsympathetic. It had a Desperate Housewives feel, but just didn‘t work for me.

If you go into this expecting a drama-filled popcorn-type thriller… then you might like it. 🤷♀️ Let me break it down, the writing is there…this has a great flow, easy to stay in the story, and such. But the characters are atrocious…and I get that they‘re supposed to be…but they are a bit much. Also, the foreshadowing at the start of the story; could be that it gave too much away or it could‘ve also been what kept me listening…I‘m not sure.
so-soHandsome new neighbor plays a literal game of F*ck/Marry/Kill with the desperate housewives.
Very few likable characters, takes a while to set up, it‘s really just ok. The drama that Will‘s arrival stirred up adds very little to the story and is more annoying than anything.
It does have it‘s moments. But overall eh

This book has awful reviews, I even stacked it off a bad review, but decided to borrow the audiobook. I am incredibly unclear about the point of this story. It‘s very much a soap opera. But the worst part is that there are 4 narrators and each one does a different voice for Will. So I got used to one which is a little stiff but ok, then the next narrator makes him sound Transylvanian 🧛 and the other like a French woman 🇫🇷
panThis was my least favorite book so far this year. I didn't like the flat characters & there was absolutely no plot to the book. I am actually mad that I read this. 😂 It was like a trashy soap opera & I could not have been less impressed with this softcore smut masquerading as a thriller. ⭐💫

pickEven though the “thriller” part hits, for the most part, all at the end and in a hurry, I enjoyed this read!
panThree women approaching their 40s are taken with the handsome stranger (pardon the cliché) who moves into their upper middle class neighborhood in Texas. If you enjoy books about three grown women who talk and act like teenagers this is the book for you. Some of the verbal idioms seem out of the ‘80s like calling each other “woman” and the over use of “into you”. I was embarrassed for them. Also some of the metaphors were just disjarring.
bailedI took a break because needed to attend to a NetGalley, but this is of the suburban housewives behaving badly ilk, and I just can't. Bailing at 19%.
