As Charly struggles to recover from her brain injury, she begins to realize that the events of that fateful night are trapped in the damaged right side of her brain.

Loved this book!!
I just started reading Freida’s book (started with The housemaid and the the Housemaid’s secret and so on) and I’m hooked. I absolutely LOVED this book. It was very fast paced. I loved the plot and couldn’t put it down.

Charly really tested my patience at times—I found her to be the epitome of someone I can't quite vibe with: drowning in self-pity while convinced of her own brilliance. The "mystery" seemed pretty clear to me right from the get-go, but watching the story unfold at its own rhythm was still an enjoyable ride.

I'm steering clear of spoilers, but overall, it's a solid read. No big twists this time around, but the narrative is well-crafted and kept me engaged throughout.

I was in it, hook line and sinker. All of the characters came alive on the page and forced you to care. Of course, I kept an eye out for red herrings and other bluffs, but they were not stinky herrings. I absolutely HATE the secondary title or tag as it were, the same click bait bull puckey on each and every one of her books, but I like most of McFadden’s work so I turn a blind eye to it.

I found this book very endearing and hopeful that anything is possible if really your heart and mind are in the right place. This was more a Love story With Just enough mystery. I love all of her books Even though I found This novel Not to be as scary or suspenseful As the rest of them. Still saying that, I still give her 5 stars Because it was the perfect balance.

I couldn't put this book down! Written in the perspective of Charly as she recovers from her brain damage, witty, humorous, and heartfelt, I was intrigued the entire time. I had so many questions and hopes for the book, and all were answered as I continued reading. Freida knows how to deter the readers' attention from the inevitable twist and spring you by surprise. This book really gives it all and it will rack your brain with anticipation.

The subject of this book is one I never thought I'd be interested in, let alone read, but having read The Housemaid and its follow up, I thought I'd give it a go. McFadden writes so well, her pace and storyline are neat, keeping the reader's interest at all times. Once again, she brings a refreshing angle to any situation. I'm hooked. Thank you Freida.
