Thanks to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for this Advanced Reader’s Copy of Cuckoo in the Nest by Diane Saxon due to be published August 12, 2025.

Alex has moved into a shared house with three weird housemates. He is not here to be sociable; he is here to find out what happened to his friend, Nikki. Will he find her in time?

This one had me hooked from the beginning. I loved how the author intertwined the past and present stories of Alex and Nikki from childhood to the present. It was certainly a page-turner – one I will not soon forget. Great characters and a surprisingly fantastic conclusion!

Cucko in Nest is downright terrifying -in the best way possible!

Told in two different timelines, it follows Alex in present and past day after her friend Nikki disappears. Alex has a dark secret of her own that might be revealed in her search for Nikki. Will she manage to keep it buried? how does it connect to Nikki's disappearance?

I loved the narrative and the depth of the characters. The villian was so bold, I had to keep reading just to know what would come next. Alex's character development was so good, loved her arch! The ending was beautifully satisfying!

All in all, a superb page turner.

A gripping read. Clever, intertwined storylines, revealing everyone’s story, resulting in a tense, gripping conclusion. Great read. Thanks @ Netgalley for the opportunity to read this book.

I just finished a good book. Cuckoo In the Nest by Diane Saxon is available soon and is one you should put on your list.
