First of all thank you to NetGalley and Amazon Publishing UK for letting me read this book! It was my first K. L. Slater book and it won't be my last. It was a quick and easy read. . While I didn't think it was super suspenseful, it kept me intrigued. I really enjoyed it.

I did find the characters to be a bit too much some of the time, but overall I liked them. I felt bad for Freya. That poor girl had to go through so much in the book. I think the author did a great job at giving Freya and her daughter a good backstory.

I will be honest and say that I couldn’t put this book down and read it in near enough 2 sittings. This was very fast paced and such a page turner! I enjoyed the narration and feel that added an extra element to the tension and creepiness of the apartments.

The only thing that let this book down for me was the ending unfortunately, it just didn’t satisfy me like I wanted it to!

The Apartment is a creepy read. The atmospheric writing was chilling. I was originally drawn to the front cover but the plot soon had me hooked and I read it in night. Is Doctor Marsden’s offer altruistic or has Freya made a big mistake. Freya’s vulnerability following the death of her husband and her motherly instinct to protect Skye shone through. It’s a quick read, a must for any thriller fan!

*received for free from netgalley for honest review* wow, recently read about that "study" and had no idea it would be in this book so that was cool lol, super creepy story, kinda weird ending but makes sense when you look back so would be a hard one to reread for me, but it was good

I love thrillers and K. L Slater is fast becoming one of my favorite authors. I loves this book. It kept me guessing throughout. I can't wait to read more by this author.

Brilliant read as usual from this author keep up the good work you do
I enjoy reading your novels
This held my imagination storyline kept me wanting to read more and at one point I was finding it hard to put it down as wanted to find out what happened next I recommend this book and author

This book was an overall average thriller. The characters were average, the plot not shocking. I enjoyed it, I did not guess the ending exactly but I was not shocked by it. I am glad I read this book although I will not remember this one years from now.

I thought this story had an okay plot, but I felt like there were so many missing pieces. A lot of unanswered questions and holes. Overall it was decent, but I have enjoyed this authors other books a lot more.

I started to read this book last night until i realised i had already read it. Not sure when but it has stuck with me as a twisty turny psychology thriller that is well worth a read.

This is the type of thriller I loved. I read this pretty quickly as it was a real page Turner of a book. I loved the characters and swapping back to the past timeline.
Kept me guessing until right up to the end of it. Loved it!

I’m a huge K.L. Slater fan so naturally I chose this book. The premise was intriguing and there was definitely a suspenseful tone throughout the book as is the case with most of this author’s books. She knows how to engage her reader and keep them interested and on their toes:

K.L. Slater books have been on my list of must haves forever. I have read every single one! This was just as amazing as the rest! Always a must have as soon as they come out!

An interesting twisty thiller. I haven't read any of this author's books before, but I will do again in future.

I enjoyed the relationship between Freya and her daughter. I enjoyed the read and was engaged throughout. However, the ending left me needing to fill the plot holes. The best I can say is this isn’t the worst book I’ve read but it certainly isn’t the greatest either.

Thank You to NetGalley, Thomas and Mercer and Kim Slater for the digital ARC, I received in exchange for a candid review!

This is kinda the book form of Hotel California. When Freya is given the opportunity to live in a nice apartment, how can she turn it down? She and her son move in, and she feels watched and that there is something evil in the building. Can she and her son get out, or will they be there forever?

ARC provided by NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Freya had exactly what she had hoped for in life-- a loving husband, a comfortable home, and her daughter Skye. That was until her husband Lewis left her for another woman, her perfectly coiffed best friend Janine. Lewis and Janine quickly move in together, then move in on Skye, threatening to take custody away from Freya but before they can dismantle Freya's life any further, Lewis dies and Freya is forced to move away. Freya has no job and very little in savings so when she is approached by Dr. Marsden about an available apartment in Adder House, his too-good-to-be-true offer is just too good to pass up.

Adder House is the kind of luxurious apartment house Freya could only dream of living in but Dr. Marsden has made it clear that living in Adder House is well within her reach if he believes that Freya and Skye are right for Adder House. Shortly after moving in however, Freya realizes there might have been cause for concern over Dr. Marsden's generous offer. Is Adder House as it appears, or does it hide a more sinister past?

This was a quick and exceptionally entertaining read. Having a dash of dual timelines sprinkled in made the narrative move back and forth rather smoothly without interrupting the suspense building in Freya's new apartment. The twists and turns and red herrings were well placed and well-executed. Definitely a book I would recommend for a cozy weekend read.

This book is so creepy. I really loved it. I think this book is particularly scary because I related to the main character in many ways. I highly recommend this book.

If an offer appears to be too good to be true, you might not want to accept it.

Betrayed by her husband, Freya Miller is about to lose her home. She has no clue what she and her five-year-old daughter will do, where they will live, or how they will survive. Then a chance meeting with the charismatic Dr. Marsden changes everything.

He is looking for a new tenant for a flat in an upscale part of London, and he assures her that she and her daughter would be perfect. Not believing her luck yet desperate, Freya accepts.

Little things that don’t make any sense keep happening, but they add up to something Freya doesn’t want to believe: the reactions of people when she tells them she is living in Adder House, rumors of another woman and her daughter living there before, the want of the landlord to install a security camera in her apartment. But why would Dr. Marsden lie to her?

When Freya finally realizes it is time for her and her daughter to leave Adder House, she cannot find her daughter. She has disappeared. Has Freya waited too late?

I knew something bad was going on while I was reading The Apartment, but I couldn’t pin down exactly what it was. I read fast, but I couldn’t read fast enough to keep me happy. When I got to the end, I let out my breath. I had been holding it in anticipation of what was going to happen to Freya and her daughter. The ending was not disappointing.

Normally I love K.L Slater's books and devour them quickly and give 5* ratings. This one was ok. Not my favourite though. When Freya and Skye move into an apartment lots of weird things happen. It flicks between their life and something in the past. This becomes clearer towards the end of the story. It was good but not gripping.

This was a creepy one! I found it to be similar to a story by Riley Sager and enjoyed both. While I did have some questions about the plot and found some parts to a little unrealistic, I really enjoyed the characters and the setting and was rooting for Freya the whole time!
