Okay, so I just finished 'The Housemaid' and WOW. I devoured this book in one sitting—something I haven't done since college all-nighters!
Millie's story gripped me immediately. An ex-con working for a wealthy family? Sign me up for that drama! The way Freida McFadden writes makes you feel like you're right there in that creepy Winchester mansion.
Plot twist alert: Just when I thought I had everything figured out (around 2am with my reading light dimming), BAM! The story took a turn I NEVER saw coming. My jaw actually dropped—my cat looked concerned.
The characters? Chef's kiss. Nina is that perfectly terrifying villain you love to hate, and Millie's resilience had me cheering out loud (again, concerned cat). That moment when [redacted for spoilers] happened? Iconic.
Only complaint: The epilogue left me wanting more resolution about [specific plot point]. But honestly, that just means I'll be first in line for the sequel!
Final verdict: 4.8/5 stars (minus 0.2 for sleep deprivation caused by 'just one more chapter' syndrome). If you love psychological thrillers with rich people behaving badly, this is your next obsession.
