The Housemaid

This book pulled me in from the very first chapter. The pacing is fast, the chapters are short, and the suspense builds steadily throughout the story. I loved how the plot kept shifting just when I thought I understood what was happening. Each reveal felt earned and genuinely surprising. It’s the perfect thriller for readers who want something engaging without being overly complicated. I ended up reading far later than planned because I needed to know what happened next. If you enjoy psychological suspense with strong twists and a smooth writing style, this one delivers.

Nina Winchester’s elegant home hides dangerous secrets, and when a young woman takes a job as the housemaid, she discovers just how twisted the family truly is. Every day brings small deceptions, subtle power plays, and the constant question: who’s really in control? This book had been sitting on my TBR for far too long, but with the movie out, I finally picked it up and I wasn’t disappointed. As expected from Freida McFadden, it’s full of suspense, tension, and twists that keep you turning pages. I guessed the big twist, but the journey to get there was gripping and thoroughly enjoyable. A must-read for fans of domestic suspense and psychological thrillers.

Such a great, fast paced read. The characters psyche is deeply explored and expressed. A great book that pulls you in. A must read!

I love this book! So many twists and turns. I got all the books for the housemaid series and this one was my favorite. I couldn’t put it down.

For many years, I read nothing but non-fiction. I wanted to learn something. Something that I could apply to my life, that would improve it, make it better. Knowledge that would transform my personality. Transform me into a happier person. I wasn't interested in just more distraction. Lately, though, I've opened my mind to venture into works of fiction. In my search to find the right book, I noticed that this author had many six-digit, positive reviews. This one, The Housemaid, had the highest review count. I purchased the paperback copy. I know that this may seem strange to some, but there is just this sense of satisfaction when you see a book on your shelves, that you began and finished. I really enjoyed this story. It seemed plausible. Something that could really happen. I loved that in the beginning; I fell under the impression that a certain character was the flawed one, the dysfunctional one, the one who was bat crazy. She made me angry, because in real life, there are certainly people like that. Then, as the story progressed, I realized that this person, whom I thought was loco, was really highly intelligent. She had masterminded the entire tangle. There is a little bit of romance, also, that had me rooting for the two people who were attracted to each other. I truly enjoyed the twists and turns, and being surprised when things turned out to be the opposite of what I was led to believe. The ending was satisfying, and I enjoyed the book so much that I immediately ordered another from this author. I also enjoyed that one so much that I finished it in three sitting. Two with The Housemaid. I highly recommend any book that this author has written. She certainly rekindled my love of reading!

This book reminded me of some others I have read in the past, little elements here and there. I thought I had it figured out a few times, and while some guesses were dead on, there were still some surprises in there. Fast read, hooked right off the bat, I read this book in about 8 hours total, short chapters, easy characters. Intrigued for the second book, hoping it doesn’t fizzle or become repetitive.

This read was a 5 ⭐️ no doubt. I rarely give out 5/5, but when I tell you I read this WHOLE book in one sitting, I DID. Thrillers are not usually the genre I go for first but I decided to give it a try & I’m SO HAPPY I did. From the very beginning I was captivated by the people, the story, EVERYTHING. I was panicking at every page turn! People are not who they seem to be 🤫 I’d recommend this book to ANYONE.

I’ve been trying to build a better habit of reading more this year, and this was my first book—and it didn’t disappoint. I flew through it in just a few days because it kept me so intrigued. The chapters were short and easy to get through. That said, I wasn’t totally satisfied with the ending; it felt a bit rushed and left some loose ends. Still, it’s a solid weekend read.

The pace in which the author introduces you to the Winchesters house and the characters in the story is clever. She leaves little nuggets of information about each character enough to make you think it could be a red flag. I especially liked how she neatly tied up all the little plots even the parts that appear just comments. Fascinating book with fantastic plot planning character building and psychological twists.

The book came in very good condition, and I started reading it right away ...finished it in one sitting! I absolutely loved The Housemaid by Freida McFadden. Millie’s character was my favorite...strong, sarcastic, and so real. Her little bits of humor made the dark story even more enjoyable. The short chapters kept me hooked and made it so easy to keep saying “just one more.” It’s fast-paced, twisty, and completely addictive, a perfect psychological thriller!

Intriguing book to read! You won’t want to put it down once you start. Keeps you guessing and full of imagination! Great twist.

Bought as a present for a family member. Love's it
