Frankie is a polished Instagram influencer and successful owner of a trendy pilates, yoga hybrid gym brand. On the surface, she’s wealthy and flawless, but she’s hiding a dark past. When anonymous threats begin to surface, her carefully constructed world starts to crack. Meanwhile, her new young cleaner, Bee, has secrets of her own; and things quickly spiral. "I Let Her In" is a fast-paced, twisty read with layered characters, even if some plot points were a bit predictable. Bee was delightfully irritating in that perfectly teenage way, and while Frankie wasn’t always sympathetic, she kept me intrigued.

A solid pick for fans of bingeable thrillers. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this arc. This one was easy to read and a quick read. I love plots with social media involved. I did figure out the twists early, and it was kind of slow to pick up the suspense

Title: I Let Her In
Author: Sophia Spiers
Genre: Thriller
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Summary: Frankie's Instagram page is carefully curated for my 800,000 including her latest manicure, behind the scenes content from her yoga studio and gifted collabs from the hottest brands. It all looks so glamorous. One day Frankie starts receiving vicious messages and threats on her Instagram.

One day she meet our new cleaner at her yoga studio. She’s only eighteen and she’s just moved to the city. She has nowhere to go. She feels bad for her and eventually gives her a place to stay. Frankie thinks this is all just a chance meeting, but has no idea it's been planned all along.

My View: This book was so good. I binge read it in 24 hours. I found the story to be fast paced, edge of your seat, and included an emotional twist at the end. I have never read anything by Sophia Spiers, but will be looking for others by her in the future. This book will be released for publication on May 1.

Thank you NetGalley and Lume Books for providing this ARC.

Gripping read about an influencer with a carefully curated public persona but a past….and a girl who appears out of nowhere…..twists and turns and a thoroughly enjoyable read!

I really enjoyed how modern this book seemed with the current references and use of social media to set context. It’s a strong thriller with plenty of moments where you find yourself truly taken by surprise.

This is a modern told tale with the main character Frankie being an influencer and social media professional.

She owns a chain of gyms and her friend who is a drug addict plays a main part in her life.

Thiks is a twisty tale of addiction and obsession in all its forms.

I loved how the story unfolded and I was gripped from the start. It is a slow burn of a book but this was good as it builds beautifully.

This was such a twisty read that had me invested, I loved the social media element that added to the book for me.

This book for me was a 4* however the ending was absolutely awful.

The first 3/4s of the book were great and suspenseful, I really enjoyed it. The topic of drugs and overdose and the feeling of needing them to be creative was so well written.

The last 1/4 is where my issue lies, it just felt rush especially the last chapter and the epilogue didn’t actually explain anything or give you an insight into what happened

Overall a good book despite the end

A slow starter fir me but did pick up and turned into a fairly good read with believable characters and social media scenarios
Wasn’t always so keen on the writing style but that was more me than the actual style I think
Nonetheless an i interesting read

This is a really twisty, and utterly fabulous psychological thriller!

Frankie is an independent 30 something living her best life with a chain of successful gyms, her own brand, ALL the money and a strings free relationship to complete her perfect insistence. She is an influencer and successful in this also.

All is going well until her best friend suffers a relapse into her drug addiction. This coincides with a new employee who appears to be more than a little obsessed with Frankie…. As this novel plays out we learn who is behind threats Frankie receives on social media amongst other utterly crazy revelations!

This novel transcends ‘readable’ and can be placed securely in ‘unputdownable’ territory!! Clear your diary and enjoy!!

My thanks to NetGalley, author and publisher for the opportunity to review the book in exchange for an advance copy.

First off, thank you very much for this eARC that was generously provided by the publisher and author via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Second, being an arc, I very much expect there to be plenty of revisions and while the book was pretty good, I felt those revisions were still necessary. There were times I was confused about whose point of view I was reading. Also it didn’t exactly hook me in the beginning, and started out pretty slow. Also, I don’t feel like the cover accurately represents what the book is going to be about. But! There were some pretty good twists that I didn’t see coming and the characters had pretty good depth to them. The ending wasn’t all that great and it felt unfinished and abrupt.

Like I said, some revisions were definitely needed to clean some things up a bit. The writing was done well and it definitely had potential.

Frankie is a perfectly curated Instagram star who owns her own brand of gyms that teach pilates/yoga hybrid classes. (Can I just say how much I hate the word pilaga?) She's well off and seemingly flawless. But really, she's hiding from her troubled past. One day, she starts getting anonymous messages, threatening to reveal her secrets. Her new, young studio cleaner Bee has secrets of her own. Things begin to spiral from there.

This was a fun one! Bee was perfectly annoying, irrational, and selfish like teenagers can be. It was hard to feel bad for Frankie at times but she did have some layers to her. I found some of it predictable but I still enjoyed reading. I Let Her In was a quick, twisty read. I would definitely read Sophia Spiers again.

I do wish I had realized there was a UK slang glossary in the back *before* I started reading, but I was able to figure out most of it with context clues.

Recommended for fans of popcorn thrillers.

Thank you Joffe Books and NetGalley for the ARC.

This story was quite the thriller. It kept me up late. I felt really bad for one of the main characters and found myself having a lot of empathy for her. The ending was not my favorite though.

This one wasn't bad, but it wasn't my favorite either, it started off very slow and took me a little to get into it. I loved the multiple POV's those were really nice. It was definitely a fun and thrilling ride, but a little predictable.

I LET HER IN BY SOPHIA SPIERS.
Release date set for the 1st of May 2025.
This story follows the Povs from both Frankie and Bee and easy to follow along.
Fast paced.
I do love a good social media Trope and this one worked for me personally.
I'd recommend this book.
This is my first book by this author and I'll read more of her work

This book explores amazing topics, such as social media, addictions, and neglectful parents, which I think were well done. And of course, as a thriller, it has some twists with the biggest one, which, saddly, I realized way early in the story, but maybe because this is the genre I read the most. That said, it doesn't mean that that didn't allow me to enjoy the book; I really did, every part of it, as well as the characters and their motivations. So, I highly recommend it.
Congratulations to the author and thank you so much to Joffe Books and NetGalley for sending me this ARC.

Francesca “Frankie” has a strong presence on social media and unbeknownst to her she has a particular follower that is obsessed and unhinged! That is Bernadette “Bee”! She’s gotten herself a job at one of Frankie’s studio and eventually into her house. This started out slow, but picked up towards the end. Thank you to the publisher for a copy.

You will need your seat belt on for this read, its very fast paced and moving. It showcases on the reality of social media and how easy it can be to perfect our life for that dopamine hit we all require. A very engaging read which shows how our main character Frankies life can soon be turned upside down after some challenges in her past , and it shows that you should always trust your gut feelings. A very addictive read, and a very realistic read with reflections on human behaviours and how they can be very different to our own. This is a rollercoaster of emotions from the start and it was read within a few days as i felt very consumed throughout with this book. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the advanced reader copy.

Social media is a brilliant invention. You can make friends all over the world, reconnect with long-lost friends or acquaintances, and stay in touch with them. You can also read all sorts of posts shared by these people or various organizations.

But there’s also a downside. Everyone can see what you’re doing or not doing—unless, of course, you set your profile to private. But some people want to earn money by posting photos or gaining followers, and then you have to expose yourself, sometimes with all the consequences that come with it. People don’t always leave positive comments and can sometimes come up with the strangest ideas…

Followers naturally expect their idol to post regularly, and if nothing is shared for a few days, the toxic tongues start to wag, spreading all kinds of rumors.

Frankie is a successful businesswoman who sees her carefully built image start to crumble. This begins when Bee enters her life. Who is this young woman? What are her intentions?

I found it especially intriguing to find out what role the different characters played in Frankie’s life and whether she would be able to defend herself against it.

I also found it a heartbreaking story, and it hurt to see how certain situations can drive some people to desperate actions.

To me, it wasn’t exactly a thriller, because at times I found it a bit too predictable—but on the other hand, the author still managed to keep me reading, which led to a surprising conclusion. I think this book deserves a solid 4 stars.

Thank you.

i love how books like this have twist and turns not only from the great plot but also from the layout of differing Pov. because as each of the specific Pov chapter ends you are left wondering anew who did what or why. in books like in life it not only shows you how different people take things, or are effected by things. but also how and why the "plot" came about. the third person element who we dont know the identity of is a added bonus here.
i was hooked into this book from the start. im sooooo over social media. its getting rather grating with its lies and fakery. some people literally abusing their children behind mum vlogs. or taking the camera out on their kids sleeping. just doing things for ads. lying lying lying but then #ad. its all so fake and often now much deeper wrongs are at place with it too. its slipping into a dangerous place to be. and still people are reeled in by "their community"
this book then had that very things. the woman who online has it all. but she very clearly does not. then the maid who doesnt have it all but there is something else going on with her too.
and as the story unfolds we are left gripped. was this a chance and first time meeting. what is really going on behind closed doors and social media accounts.
this is a thrill ride and i loved it. it kept me guessing in all the right places but also i could figure it out in all the right places too. and some of the things came left field and had me totally gazumped.
