Book Of The Month: The Housemaid Is Watching

Okay, so I need to talk about this book…and to be honest, the whole Housemaid trilogy…because I haven’t been this glued to a book in ages. Actually, this was my first fiction series ever, and wow…it’s been like watching one long, twisty, dramatic movie play out over three books.

I started with The Housemaid, got completely hooked, moved on to The Housemaid’s Secret, and now I’ve just finished The Housemaid Is Watching. Safe to say Freida McFadden books are elite.

This third book picks up where the last one left off…without spoiling anything, let’s just say it has everything you want in a binge-worthy psychological thriller….secrets, drama, plot twists, that constant feeling of ‘wait WHAT just happened?!’ and characters you really can’t trust (but kind of love).

Also, I love how cinematic it all feels…I guess that’s why I feel like it’s a movie playing out in head. I kept thinking, ‘This would make the best Netflix series.’ I'm low-key manifesting it.

I’ve realised how important fiction is as an escape. It’s that little window to zone out, let your imagination take over, and be pulled into someone else’s messy, dramatic life. I’m honestly loving this book challenge of one book a month…it’s given me a reason to switch off from the world and actually zone out.

Highly recommend if you’re looking for something juicy and easy to get into. Also, please send me your recommendations in the comments because I have no idea what to start for June!!
