✨ Mystery Thriller
✨ Affair
✨ Trauma


✨ Oh my goodness. This book removes me from having a reading slump!
I thought the story at first chapters were predictable, as it was easy to know BUT…. I was wrong. It was never ending who’s who and what just happened?!
✨ For me personally, this book is not a standalone. It leave me with a cliffhanger and wanted more!! I want to know more what happen !!😆
✨ Definitely worth to read. If you like something twisted and surprising ending this book is for you.

The author's writing style just wasn't for me. I found it to be rather repetitive but I did like the cliff hangers at the end of every chapter. I feel like this could have been condensed to a very short story. I also felt like I knew where the story was going, it was rather predictable.

Thank you NetGalley and Bookouture for the early release of Sue Watson’s latest book. I enjoyed this popcorn thriller even though I did guess the twist but it had me wondering if I was correct or not until the very last page. This was a fast paced read that gave me some whiplash at times trying to keep up with who I could and couldn’t trust throughout the book.

This book follows Rachel a wife and mother who is dealing with some trauma from her past that is affecting her present day life. When her and her husband and son move after receiving an inheritance from her father she thinks it’s the fresh start they needed but boy was she mistaken. Some people in their new town seem to be paying too much attention to Rachel and her family. It almost seems as if she may have a stalker on her hands. Is it a stalker who wants her family and life or is it just her paranoia and anxious mind that hasn’t shaken from what she’s gone through in the past? Everyone will be a suspect in this story until the very end.

I found this book to be super fast paced and interesting. Right before the halfway point is when I really got sucked in and couldn’t put it down because I just had to know if my theory was right or not. This book comes out in June so make sure you add it to your TBR!

I knew this book would be good just by the title, but I did not expect it to be this good! Going off the title and blurb, you'd think things would be simple - husband, wife, and an in-between woman/mistress - and for the most part, that's what this book gave. Rachel, her husband, Tom, and a younger woman named Chloe. Chloe comes off as extremely obsessed and possessive, and we are led to believe that she is insane and has attachment issues. After catching her in multiple lies, Rachel is convinced Chloe wants her life - the husband, the big house, and even their son, Sam. After Chloe dies, Rachel decides to do some digging and uncovers the shocking truth.

Going into this book, I had high expectations. I love a good drama, especially when murder and lies are thrown in the mix. This book gave exactly that. However, it didn't really seem to get good until closer to the end, after Chloe dies. That is when all the secrets start to come out! Up until then, we see a lot of Chloe's obsessive ways and we are almost certain she is jealous of the life Rachel lives. The plot twists in this book are shocking, and the ending is jaw-dropping! I did not see it coming at all! It instantly took the book from a 3 to a 4.5 for me!

Thank you NetGalley, Bookouture, and Sue Watson for this suspenseful read!

I love Sue Watsons books and was so looking forward to getting stuck into this one. It moves at a slower pace than I’m used to with this author but maybe that was intentional. It does put a different kind of spin on a storyline that we have experienced before. It’s a well developed storyline with well developed characters but I can’t say if I actually liked any of them though and there were times I wanted to strangle Rachel 😳. When the pace picked up my head was in a spin and I was suspicious of everyone. But OMG that ending - come one Sue what a way to leave a girl hanging 🤷‍♀️😢…

Twisty, twisty, twisty! This was a story I raced through! I just knew more was going on that it appeared, and I was RIGHT! I had guessed the final twist, but it was still a great ending! Loved the suspense!

"Someone is a liar. Someone is in danger. Someone is a killer."
You Me Her is a book I would recommend to fans of Frieda McFadden, Kierstin Modglin and Jeneva Rose. The hints of a wife's horrific relationship with water, Her relationships she develops after moving to a new city and the shocking twists kept me thoroughly entertained.
The ending was not a huge surprised as we were led to guess it, but the way it left off in a cliffhanger made me want more chapters. So much was unresolved at the end, but I loved the way it ended with the reader questioning the outcome.

An incredibly twisty thriller involving the secrets surrounding some marriages and friendships and the harm they can cause. Gripping from the very beginning, impossible to put down. A five star, must read.

4.5 stars for this one! (5 stars means I would read it again) I will say I would absolutely read from this author again.

She gipped me and had me paying attention the whole time. The suspense was great, although I feel like I was suspicious of who was in on it and even the surprise twist, I wasn't fully sure until I read it. The build was great and the unraveling at the end kept me on my toes.

Absolutely recommend this book!

Wow. I had to read the majority of the book in just one go — action and pacing really pick up right before the middle of the book. There is no conclusive ending, but I think readers can piece together what happens next. I enjoyed this book. But it was also scary. To read how someone can thoroughly ruin someone else’s life was overwhelming at times. This book lands firmly in the thriller category for me (not quite mystery).

It is a bit obvious who the terrible people are in this book (and there are many), but it was a good book nonetheless. I recommend reading it, especially when you have free time to read it in one sitting!

Thanks to Sue Watson, Bookouture, and NetGalley for the advanced copy!

My Rating: 3.75


One Marriage. Three People. One Murder.

You = Tom
Me = Rachel
Her = Chloe - Maybe?

In You Me Her, we are following the lives of the Frazer family; Rachel, her husband Tom, and their 4-year-old son Sam.

Rachel's dad died and left her with a large sum of money as an inheritance. Rachel and Sam are currently staying in her hometown, while Tom is spending the inheritance money to give Rachel the home of her dreams in another town. Tom is handling all the decisions that come along with fixing up a house: tile, paint color, garden, etc.

When Rachel and Sam move into the new house, Rachel is hoping to leave tragedy behind and finally be able to get on with her life. Rachel loves the new house, but she is very concerned about all the money being spent.

In walks Chloe, a younger, very pretty girl. She does not knock she just lets herself right in. Chloe is shocked to see that Rachel is there. Tom plays it off and says that Chloe works with the real estate agency and that's why she has keys to their house.

Quote: "But nothing is ever quite what it seems, and storm clouds can gather quickly."

Rachel befriends Chloe and they begin to spend lots of time together. Tom does not like this at all because he has told Rachel that Chloe is very dangerous and should not be trusted. Strange things start happening at the house. Sam sees things. Rachel sees things.

Is Tom being overdramatic?
Can Chloe be trusted?
Is Rachel going crazy?

You Me Her by Sue Watson has twists and turns aplenty. I trusted no one. There are several characters that play a role in this story. All of them - sketchy! You will not know who to believe. Sue does a good job with that. There's just something not quite right with each one of them, you just cannot put your finger on it.

Secrets
Fear
Lies
Friendship
Betrayal

I try not to go too in depth with thriller reviews, because I think they are better gone into blind. I did enjoy You Me Her. I thought I had it figured out, but I did not. If you like domestic trillers, I would recommend putting this one on your list.

Thank you Bookouture and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review You Me Her.

Oh my gosh. This book!!! I love thrillers that have twists and turns and don’t seem predictable and that’s exactly what Sue Watson has done with this book. Everytime I thought I had figured out what was going on a plot twist happened. It kept me gripped throughout. I could hardly put it down to go to bed. At times I felt like parts were slightly repetitive which led to me not being able to give it 5 stars but I really did enjoy this. I’m usually a romance reader so I thought this was a step out my comfort zone but I loved this book. And don’t even get me started on the last chapter. Jaw dropped. Thank you so much NetGalley for letting me read this book early! 4 stars from me.

Oh, what a tangled web we weave....

WOWZA! You, Me, Her is a gripping, thrilling, shocking, and dramatic page turner! I did not want to put this book down! Sue Watson delivers time and time again! I was enticed by the synopsis of this book and once I began reading, I found myself completely glued to the pages, addicted to the drama, riveted by the mystery, and shocked by the secrets!!!! Sue Watson knocked it out of the ballpark with You, Me, Her!


Woohoo!!!!

Rachel has recently inherited a lot of money and has trusted her husband, Tom, to get their new home ready. When she and their son finally move in, she is apprehensive but ready for their new fresh start in their new to them home. When Chloe, a young estate agent, shows up and lets herself into their home, Tom tells Rachel not to trust her. But Rachel needs a friend....

This addictive psychological thriller kept me on my toes wanting more. This book was so much fun! I loved the drama, the tension, the secrets, the lies, the not knowing who I could trust or who was telling the truth! There were times when I thought I had this book figured out, but Sue Watson was always one step ahead of me, throwing in twist after twist.



Gripping, shocking, thrilling, and dramatic!

"You Me Her" by Sue Watson is an engaging psychological thriller that delves into the complexities of love, betrayal, and identity. The novel revolves around a husband, a wife, & a Chloe, each intricately linked by a shared secret that unravels as the story progresses.

Watson's writing is compelling, with well-drawn characters and a plot that keeps the reader guessing. The alternating perspectives add depth to the narrative, allowing readers to connect with each character's motives and emotions. The twists and turns are well-executed, making it difficult to put the book down.

However, some plot developments feel somewhat predictable, and the pacing occasionally drags, especially in the middle sections. While the characters are generally well-developed, certain motivations and actions can seem forced or overly dramatic.

Overall, "You Me Her" is a solid thriller that will appeal to fans of the genre. Its strengths lie in its character development and suspenseful atmosphere, though it may not fully satisfy readers looking for completely unpredictable twists. A 3.5-star read rounded up, because it is a worthwhile pick for those who enjoy exploring the darker aspects of human relationships.

When dreams become nightmares! I could not put this book down - compelling and chilling. Twisty and terrifying. A perfect book to take on holiday.

One seemingly perfect marriage and the perfect house to match? All is not what it seems as poor Rachel finds out when she makes the big move with her son from Manchester to Cornwall to reunite with her husband. All seems well until her greatest fears are incorporated into her dream home, what starts off as a dream quickly turns to a nightmare.

I don’t know what Sue put in this book but I ate it up! It was written so well I really did struggle to put it down to adult. Usually I can work out the twist before it happens but everytime I thought I knew, I wasn’t even close. It is my 1st five star read of 2024.

4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I want to start by saying I wish I could get one thriller/mystery story that could survive without the MC being a total moron. 😭 Like so much could’ve been avoided if Rachel didn’t do things that I feel like normal people wouldn’t do. And I know some people say “if they acted like normal people there would be no story”, but to that I say, I believe there is an author somewhere who can make a gripping tale without relying heavily on things that I have to suspend my common sense to believe. Anyways I figured out the ending at about 45% into the book but I wasn’t positive until about 58% in. All in all I really did enjoy this book, I finished it in a day so that should tell you that it does keep you engrossed. Rachel can get a bit repetitive and again repeatedly make dumb decisions but she wasn’t the worst I’ve ever seen (I’m looking at you Millie from the Housemaid 🤣) Lol. Funnily enough I never liked Tom, he just never displayed anything worth liking, but I get why Rachel would be so attached since she met him at such a pivotal time in her life. Chloe Chloe Chloe 🥹. I can’t really say too much more without being spoiler-y so what I will say is go and get your copy and read for yourself. Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for this ARC.
