‘The Housemaid’ book review: An addictive psychological thriller
I couldn’t put the book down and finished it the day I started. I was desperate to know what happens next as well as how it ends. Though I did guess the twist, I didn’t expect it to unravel the way it did. The Housemaid was so good that I immediately bought another book by the same author (The Locked Door) and started reading it. My husband who, in our eight years of marriage, has never seen me read the same author back-to-back was shocked. The Housemaid is on his reading list now, and that’s saying a lot because he prefers non-fiction to fiction.
McFadden is #1 Amazon, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, and Publisher’s Weekly bestselling author who works as a physician specializing in brain surgery. Her novels have been translated into more than 30 languages. Two-time Emmy nominee Rebecca Sonnenshine (The Boys) is set to make a feature adaptation of The Housemaid for Lionsgate. I’m so excited about that. The book felt like it was written for the screen. I can’t wait to watch it come to life.
