Behind Closed Doors - B.A. Paris - 3 stars

[Susie]

I picked this up in January for the bonus tag but I didn't manage to fit it in in time, so here we are in February! I found this thriller ultimately underwhelming. The first half had me interested, but I became tired of the storyline in the second half, although not enough to give it the flick. For me it just didn't seem believable, and I found the writing to be too simplistic. I would suggest it to anyone who is looking for an easy but forgettable thriller, but if you didn't read it you wouldn't be missing anything.

I liked this more than you, but definitely agree that it didn't seem believable. Like no one in Millie's caretaking is suspicious about anything? I think of books like these the fluff and chick lit of psychological thrillers. Great for the time being and reading, but pretty mindless and not too much substance.

That was ultimately why I chose not to read it. It seemed interesting, but not...~deep enough for me to sink my teeth into, I guess. Like it would end up being a book I enjoyed, but would forget about after a day.

Joi, perfect description - the chick lit of psychological thrillers! Flo, you are right. It will quickly leave my memory.

[Amy]

And quickly leave my TBR - Lol!

[Susie]

Ha! I know others have enjoyed it more.

I also rated it three stars. It just seemed unbelievable to me.

I'm sorry to hear you didn't like it. I really enjoyed it. I wanted to know how things were going to end from the get go which kept me reading. It wasn't my favorite read by any means and while it was unbelievable, I still liked it.
