The Therapist by B.A. Paris

"Alice and Leo have just moved in together to The Circle, a gorgeous gated community in London. But when Alice tries to get to know their new neighbors, she discovers a devastating, grisly secret about her new home-and begins to feel a strong connection with Nina, the therapist who lived there before. Alice becomes obsessed with trying to piece together what happened, but none of her new neighbors want to talk about it. Soon it becomes clear to Alice that things are not at all as they seem." --Page 4 of cover.

This book took me longer than normal to finish and I think that was because the heroine had an internal monologue that I found a bit irritating. Of course, all of that ended up getting explained but it wasn't the quick read I'm used to.

This was just not my type of thriller. From the characters to the twists it just wasn't for me, it felt like it should've been a way older thriller

3.25 ⭐️

I didn't know I had such high expectations for this book until I found the whole story to be very “meh”.

took me forever to finish, thats how i know a book isnt for me

alice was just too stupid, made too many dumb decisions. like why are putting your life at risk by involving yourself in something that NOTHING to do with you ???? why are you still interacting with a man you've only known for a year & who blatantly lied to you ???? why are you still in the house

this entire book was built on stupidity im sorry, if she was a normal person she'd have just moved out, fin de l'histoire

the plot twist was good tho, which is pissing me off because it would've been an AMAZING book if not for mc's questionable decisions

the dead sister's name being nina does NOT explain her crazy involvement in this shit
