Finished this book in a couple of sittings - which isn’t like me. It starts off introducing Harriet and Lexie who are neighbours. Harriet wants what Lexie has and Lexie appears to want what Lexie has. But there’s so much more to this story.
Harriet’s previous relationship has left her with many issues. The rollercoaster ride of the lengths she will go to to get what she wants is scary.
Lexie and Tom’s story of their IVF struggles was also well
portrayed too.
A very good read that I will be recommending to friends.
Thank to Net Galley for the chance to read this book.

Thank you to Net Galley and Avon Books UK for allowing me to read an advanced copy of this book.

Through The Wall tells the story of Harriet and her neighbour Lexie. Both are women who think the grass is greener and who envy the lives of others on social media, or more specifically, envy each others lives.

Lexie is on one side of the wall with her partner Tom, craving a child, craving the life she has always assumed she would have. Hearing the hedonistic lifestyle her neighbour Harriet has, her pangs of jealousy become all consuming.

On the other side of the wall is Harriet, desperate for the life she thinks she should have, and that her perfect neighbour Lexie has it all. Although Harriet has a secret. A dark past that is threatening to return with a vengeance to finally get Harriet what she wants.

What transpires is a story you see from both sides, and how easily you can fall prey to believing everything you see on social media.

Its a gripping and twisty page turner that will have you reading into the wee small hours.

But be warned... you might not want to share a cup of tea with your neighbour after reading this!

Through The Wall is THE most intensely, scary thriller I’ve read!!
Lexie and Tom live in a nice apartment in London, Harriet is their next door neighbour but they don’t know each other, they can just hear each other through the wall. This is definitely a book I shan’t be divulging any plot spoils in as you have to read this yourself. Yes it starts off a bit slow but stick with it this part is making you feel for all characters and get to know their situations and their histories so you feel the punch much, much harder. I was twenty minutes off finishing this and had to do dinner but I couldn’t hardly eat any as I was so swept up with the drama of Will she won’t she! By the end it felt like I’d run a marathon. This a dark, intense thriller that I could not put down and finished in hours!! Well done Caroline Corcoran for making me feel like this. A very different disturbing thriller.
I would like to thank Netgalley and Avon Books UK for this ARC I received in exchange for an honest review.

Tom and Lexie live just through the wall from Harriet in a block of flats. The walls are thin and despite not having met, they are aware of how each live their lives. Tom and Lexie love their lives and each other whilst Harriet is lonely and insecure and hides this by throwing wild parties.
The book was enjoyable, I loved the caring relationship between Tom and Lexie and whilst I'm not sure whether i was meant to love or loathe Harriet, I found I didn't really care about her character .
This is a really good debut novel and I congratulate the author on the interesting storyline.

This book took a while to get started, in my opinion. I felt like the ‘real stuff’ could have started a bit earlier on and we wouldn’t have lost any of the important background story.

This book is made up of short chapters but which I personally love as I think it helps read it quickly but take in a lot of information and I like the way it switches between the two main characters to see each side of what is happening. However, I was hoping that something more sinister would happen earlier on - I enjoyed the storyline but it wasn’t what I was expecting... I was expecting it to be more of a thriller! It’s a great read but in my eyes, not a psychological thriller.

I have to be honest in that I found both of the main characters actually quite irritating but in completely different ways - this didn’t distract me from what was happening and the way this book has been written.

However, this book was brilliant, I couldn’t put it down, the ending was sort of what I expected but it worked perfectly.

I will be recommended this book to my instagram followers on publication date.

Thank you Netgalley for my advanced copy.

An interesting storyline but unfortunately I found it quite slow going. It did pick up as it progressed but then the ending was rather a let down..

I enjoyed this book. it was very strange in regards to the story line. I expected a more serious outcome in terms of why she was in a psychiatric hospital rather than the one provided. I felt like the ending was rather sharp and short. It was addictive to read and you wanted to know what was going to happen, however a bit lacking.

I saw this advertised alot and my attention was caught by the cover. I just had to request it from NetGalley. Caroline is a new author and I enjoy reading new authors and this one doesn't disappoint.

The story can be quite dark in places with page turning interest. Some of the scenes are certainly researched and actually, going by the acknowledgment at the end, Caroline must have gone through the experiencd herself.

I enjoyed the ending as it felt as though you could go on to another book with the character's next obsession and that's not easy to do.

Brilliant. I will certainly keep an eye out for another book by Caroline Corcoran.

I’m very disappointed with this book. I’ve been desperate to read this one and the blurb makes it sound amazing, but I’ve been left feeling gutted. Throughout the whole book there was a big build up, as if something big was going to happen. But I feel like nothing happened. I think there was no big event and nothing shocked me. I did really like the characters, and the build up was enough to keep me reading. However that build up led to nothing. I found the storyline a bit boring and very slow. I stuck with this one and kept reading with the hope that something good and shocking was coming. Unfortunately, I don’t recommend this one.

Thank you to Net Galley for an advance copy if this brilliant book to read and review.

What a great debut novel.

We always think the grass is greener for other people, but are people living the lives we think they are?

Lexie and Tom live in a flat next door to Harriet. They each hear the other through the wall ... they believe Harriet is a popular girl who has a party most nights with all her friends. Harriet believes Lexie and Tom have the perfect happy life together.

Lexie is actually struggling with life after giving up work to have a baby but that is not going to plan. She is feeling quite lonely and longs for the friends and the freedom Harriet has.

Harriet is actually living alone having moved to London from the US with her then boyfriend, Luke, who walked out on her. She does not have any friends and invites random unknown neighbours who are also alone along to her parties for some company.

Then Harriet decides she wants Lexie’s life for herself.

I have already recommended this book to a friend who wants to read it. Definitely 5 stars from me 😁

What our minds do to us - a powerful exploration of how our own minds can be the darkest, scariest places of all. Highly descriptive, How we perceive our life isn't how it's perceived by others. I began to doubt what was my own reality.

This book was an okay read for me , I found it quite irritating the way it kept going back and forward and far too much time explaining everything . It didn't grab me to keep me wanting to keep reading

This book was fast paced. Hard to put down. It flowed well and it was very well written. It caught hold of me and had me hooked from the start . I was literally on the edge of my seat reading this book.

I absolutely devoured Through the Wall by Caroline Corcoran. It’s got a modern day single white female vibe about it and I found I couldn’t put it down.

Lexie and Tom live in a luxurious flat in zone one, London. A well to do couple trying for a baby. Their neighbour Harriet is next door. She has her secrets, she’s lonely and often has late night parties just to have company. Unfortunately the walls seem to be quite thin so each neighbour hears most of what goes on in their neighbours flat.

Lexie loves her flat and her life with Tom but recently things seem to be happening. Things appearing or being outing place.

I found this book to be a compelling read that I can highly recommend. Thank you to NetGalley, Avon Books and the author for the chance to review.

Oooo this was a really good one!!! Particularly recommend for those who watched ‘You’ on Netflix. Through the wall begins as a bit of a slow burner, but I’ve stayed up late to read the last third, so it really does get exciting! Lexie and Harriet, the main women drew me in and intrigued me. The book follows both of them and their chapters alternate. It’s such an interesting premise for a book - we never really know someone based on their social media and snippets of conversations, yet create stories about them and their happiness in our own minds. I found myself rooting for Lexie, and even when her behaviour was difficult, you will her to get what she longs for. Harriet is less likeable but so damaged and broken you also want her to find happiness.
I loved the ending too, thank you!! (Read the thanks, they’re lovely and made me like the author even more)
Thanks to netgalley, the author and the publishers for gifting me this in return for an unbiased review. I’ll definitely be looking at more of the author’s books.

I recieved a free digital edition from Netgalley and Avon Books in exchange for an honest review

I saw this all over Instagram recently which is the reason I decided to request the book.

I found it so confusing, the jumping between characters and the unreliable narrators, it was so hard to read and took me such a long time to get through.

Lexi and Harriet, living next door and each envying the life the other is leading. Not having met they both make assumptions about the others lives based on overheard scraps and social media. Envying the life their neighbour is imagined to be living.
Told from alternate view points it soon becomes clear that things are not going to end well. It is a tense, well written psychological thriller and I finished it within 24 hours.
I wonder who will play the main characters since it would lend itself well to being made into a film in the same sort of genre as ‘Gone Girl.’

Through The Wall is an interesting book. In the beginning it was slow and a little confusing but once you get through the first part it does pick up. It is an intense read of a lonely and mentally unstable woman who wants what she can't have.

An apartment block in London. Neighbours do not know each other but they see and hear everything. Lexie and Tom are going through a rough patch in their marriage. They are trying to have a baby but things have not been easy. Next door is Harriet who is alone and miserable after her boyfriend left her. She knows everything about her neighbours, and she wants what Lexie has... at any cost.

Thanks to Avon Books UK and NetGalley for my advanced copy of this book to read. All opinions are my own and are in no way biased

I must admit I found this book hard to get into but kept going with it, which I’m glad I did but I did feel the ending let it down somewhat!

The story focuses around lexi and Luke who live next door to Harriet and although have never met, they know a lot about each other’s lives through what they hear through the wall. It would appear that both seem jealous of what they know of each other’s lives.

Dark and creepy book.

Loved it! I couldn’t stop reading, it was brilliantly written and I really felt for the Lexie and Tom. The description of Lexie and Toms fertility problems was totally on point, I was desperately rooting for them. It was a little bit creepy how feasible the story was, even though I felt a bit sorry for the girl next door.
