This was an ARC extract of the book from Netgalley and the publishers and it was an interesting and intriguing start. I will probably get the book to read the rest of it to satisfy my curiosity. The female neighbours assemble for their regular book club meeting and the new neighbour from the Airbnb house comes along to and takes over.
Interesting start.

Never Have I Ever by Joshilyn Jackson has a very promising start in the small introduction. A group of young mothers gather for a weekly wine, gossip and a book club. A new neighbor, Roux joins the group at the last minute and derails the usual conversation until only a few women are left and after plying them with more alcohol than is usually consumed starts a game called Never Have I Ever. The game goes awry and the newcomer seems to know a secret about one of the women Amy than she should.
Based on the introduction I would give this a try. Thanks to #netgalley #bloomsburypublishing for the extract and the opportunity to give my opinion. #neverhaveiever

Never Have I Ever, really loved this extract. I have to read , this left me wanting to know about the women and the new one in the club.. Like what does the new neighbor have on the others. Really good...

I enjoyed reading this book. It had a good story to it. I liked the variety of characters in it. It is my first book read by this author. I hope to read more books by this author.

Oy. I missed the EXTRACT in the book. I thought my kindle zoomed to the end. It started fine... then. Hard to review a chapter. I suppose I would purchase it, just to see what happens.
Thanks, NetGalley for the EXTRACT to review.

Ok, I need this book NOW!!!!!! This book right here. I need to read this to find out who Roux is and what she is up too. If the sample is any indication of the rest of the book, this is a winner. Thanks to Netgalley, the author and the publisher for the arc of this book in return for my honest review. By receiving the book in this manner had no bearing on my review.

Thank you to Net Galley and Bloomsbury Publishing for an extract of the beginning of this title. All opinions are my own. Normally, I hesitate to get an extract, because then I'm left wanting more. In this case, I'm glad I did it. The plot drew me in immediately, and I wondered which of my friends would be Roux, and which might have been the other characters. I disliked Roux so much immediately, because I'm the one who doesn't like to make waves. Does Roux know something about the others and does she have an agenda? Or, is it a fluke that she seems to be pinpointing everyone's weaknesses? I cannot wait until this comes out in July 2019.

Oh wow how teaser-y is this extract from the forthcoming Joshilyn Jackson book,'Never Have I Ever'?
I read it in what felt like the blink of an eye before throwing myself on the floor and yelling 'Noooooo!' when I realised I had turned the last page!
What she does is very celverly set the scene with the main character, first person narrator Amy,who is getting ready with her best friend Char for the 'Brain-Dead Mommies Book Club'. They are tired of being tired from being mums to little humans and want to read again, starting with 'The House Of Mirth'.
The politics of motherhood are swiftly conveyed, there are the control freaks, the soccer mums etc and into this basement comes Roux. She is renting what Char refers to as 'The Sprite House', a neighbourhood Air B'n'B which is the bane of most of the cul de sacs life.
Roux is a breath of fresh air and accidentally commandeers the whole meeting.
One at a time the women drift away leaving 6 women who decide to play a grown up version of 'Never Have I Ever' but this time, it's the worst thing that you have done that day. Then the fireworks start...
I cannot wait to read the rest of this when it comes out!
Thank you so much Netgalley and Bloomsbury for letting me read this !

If the purpose of releasing an opening chapter is to get people wanting to read the full book, then this absolutely succeeds.

Amy's first-person narrative gives us a number of insights into her small mommy community, which is suddenly burst open with the arrival of newcomer Roux. And we're in no doubt as to what this arrival might mean for Amy because she is remonstrating with herself on page one that she could so easily have let such a force into her house, saying: "She didn't look like my own destruction to me."

Tate, Charlotte, Panda, Lavonda and most of all Amy sense that Pandora's Box has been opened. As a result, I can't wait to see exactly what high-stakes game Roux is playing...

Many thanks to NetGalley, Bloomsbury Publishing, Raven Books and Joshilyn Jackson for a copy of this teaser.

This extract of never have I ever started brilliantly enjoyed the storyline and interested what s going to happen next. Can't wait to read the full book

I had the privilege of reading an excerpt of Never Have I Ever, and I'm hooked! These ladies are so well drawn as we're introduced to each character. I'm dying to know the secrets they are hiding, and how newcomer Roux knows these secrets. I can't wait to get my hands on the full book, on sale July 30 and on shelves Aug 30.

I need this book now!! A great start to the book, a new neighbour who barges in and takes over the book club with her game.. and clearly thete are plenty of secrets with these women

Cant wait to read the rest!

An extract review only. Begins with a room full of bitchy women who are driven to distraction by the new neighbour, who has invited herself to a book group. She takes the lead and turns the nice middle American evening into a drunken, secret telling nightmare. All of the characters merged into one, unlikeable and weak, playing stupid children's games to prove to a newcomer you were naughty.
Not my bag.

I really need to get my hands on the full book.

What a way to start off a novel, Wow! It quickly build up my interest into the full story and I hope I will get approved to read it asap.

Wow! Starts off with a bang. Sorry I didn’t realize it was just an excerpt butI am hooked. Need to read the entire book!

This review is based on the sampler however I definitely want to read the full book when its available.

The enigmatic new neighbour Roux gatecrashes and derails a neighbourhood book club meeting at Amy's house. Instead of discussing the book, the women end up getting drunk and playing a game of Never Have I Ever, as suggested by Roux. Secrets are disclosed and it's clear that Roux knows some dark secret about one of the women. With jealous and manipulative characters, I can’t wait to see where this story goes!

Wow, what a concept! Thanks to NetGalley for the first chapter of this book! It really grabbed me and I want to know what Roux knows about Amy! Overall, the first chapter was a little too fast-paced for me. I generally love fast-paced reads, but this felt like some details were being overlooked because we were trying to get to the end of the first chapter twist. I would have liked to have the scene set a little more before we dove into the concept of the book. However, all that being said - I'm still interested to read the full book! I can't wait for release day!

***my rating is based on a sampler***
Amy lives a pleasurable life with her husband and baby son and stepdaughter. She runs a book club with her friend Charlotte and everything is great until the mysterious Roux arrives and disturbs their uncomplicated lives. Based on the sampler I read this was a good read and I enjoyed it.

Thank you to netgalley and the publishers for this arc in exchange for my honest review.

Loved this can't wait to be able to read the whole book. Looking forward to it.
Thanks to NetGalley author and publisher for my arc copy of the book for a honest review.

I loved the first chapter of this book and can’t wait until it gets fully released.
The characters and plot drew me in straight away and I wanted to keep on reading. This looks like it’s going to be a hit!
