I mean it‘s McFadden…of course I loved it!!

#4.2024

Freida McFadden is fast becoming one of my faves. Her books, at least the ones I have read, have kept me interested from the first page. In 'The Locked Door,' Nora Davis is a surgeon, but she has a secret she hopes no one finds out. The only problem, someone knows her secret. Whoever it is is setting her up to take the wrap. If she tells her secret, what will others think? Who is setting her up? 4.5⭐

Another book by Freida McFadden that was so good I finished it in about 24 hours. The only negative was the narrator. Her narration was a bit harsh and stiff. Otherwise, I highly recommend this book.

“Some doors are locked for a reason…

While eleven-year-old Nora Davis was up in her bedroom doing homework, she had no idea her father was killing women in the basement.

Until the day the police arrived at their front door.

Decades later, Nora's father is spending his life behind bars, and Nora is a successful surgeon with a quiet, solitary existence. Nobody knows about her past, and she'll do anything to keep it that way.”

Read in one sitting. Easy read, lots of suspense, and definitely couldn‘t have guessed the ending.

When Nora was 11, her father went to jail for murdering young women. Years later there‘s a copycat killer who may be setting her up to take the fall. Lots of suspects and an ending I didn‘t see coming makes this a pick.

My pick for my best of August! I'm not sure which one I liked more so I'm going to leave that up to future April lol

I binged through this one in less than 24 hours. I enjoyed the twists and turns. Had a similar vibe to the stillhouse lake series. So far I‘m enjoying Frieda‘s books 😁📖

I “liked” a tiktok recommending this thriller the other day and now all my fyp is all booktoks for creepy/mysterious/scary books. I‘m not complaining but… it‘s gonna be sm work to look for other book content/recs so my feed is diverse 😩 plus, it‘s gonna cost me a lot of money bc I‘m a sucker and MUST. BUY. ALL. BOOKS.

Anyways, this was good! Gimme your book tiktok recs if you‘ve got ‘em! 💗

Book 97🎧 3.1⭐️

Some good twists in this one but the narration didn‘t do it for me, it came across a bit juvenile, or it‘s the writing.

But a good middle of the road thriller.

Nora Nierling is the daughter of a serial killer. She grew up, became a surgeon, and worked hard to distance herself from her father and what he did. Then, 2 women are killed in the same way her father used to murder his victims so she must figure out what is going on. I read this for book club and it was fine. There was a twist at the end that I did not expect but otherwise the writing was pretty average.

This author never disappoints! I “knew” who was responsible for the copycat killings of her dad, a serial killer called “the Handyman” several times but I was wrong!! She always has a major twist or two and she is becoming an auto buy author for me! I could have read this in a day, but we had too much to do. Thank you @cinda.marie !! I already have someone I‘m planning on sending this to later today! #LitsyLove members be on the lookout 👀! 🌞 🌵

I literally want to shake the mc!! Almost done with this one! I think I have it figured out, but I know Freida will throw me for a loop ➰ 🔪🖤🩸

More PT ❤️‍🩹

This one has kept me on the edge of my seat!! You definitely want to have your doors locked, especially if you have a basement, and your security alarm on!! Mine is on “instant” at bedtime!

This was a good story but I guessed a lot of it very early. I still enjoyed the book but was disappointed that I figured out the general who and why. Wasn‘t as shocking as I expected. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Both of these are $0.99 today for Kindles on Amazon. I had a gift card and had been wanting to read her. I heard she was a good writer. Now, there's no telling how long they will be on my Kindle before I read them, but it was such a good deal, I didn't want to miss it.🙃

2¾⭐I don‘t get how this has so many 5-star ratings. I don‘t know if it was the narrator or the mediocre writing…but I really wasn‘t into this. It wasn‘t so horrible that I couldn‘t finish…but it almost was. The ending was its only saving grace…I didn‘t see that coming at all. Despite my issues, I will give this author another try with her latest, The Housemaid, which everyone is raving about to see if she will work for me.⬇⬇⬇

This one had me guessing the whole time and boy was I wrong. Definitely a good suspenseful read

Phenomenal as always! This one held back nothing and keeps you reading from open to close, as it goes with Freida McFadden! I can‘t get enough of her books.

I was on the edge of my seat the whole time with this one. I definitely did not suspect the ending in any way. I loved the serial killer back story and the unreliable narrator in this one. It kept me interested from the first page to the last. This author is quickly becoming a new favorite of mine!

I “knew” who it was and was wrong several times. That‘s the mark of a great thriller. And that last twist at the end? Perfection! #audiobook #Libby

Great read! This was the first book I've read by this author and I was not disappointed!

I‘m really enjoying how she writes! It‘s about a women who when she is younger her father was a serial killer who would lock them in the basement and obviously murder them! Now he‘s in jail! Nora is older and a surgeon who saves lives but nobody knows who she really is the daughter of a famous serial killer! The killings start happening again in the same way! Someone figured out who she is! Or is she the killer! And the twist 🙌🏻 🌟🌟🌟
