I like her page turner books. But I dislike her endings. Like the one I just finished. I guess she just wants to let us know what happened to all the characters after the story really ended. She goes thru each character and tells us just how/why the bad thing happened.  Huh? Since I didn't really like the characters that much I don't want to read what they were thinking, etc. The book was The Housemaid is Watching.  That title is really a misnomer IMO. So she watches out her window all the time. She was barely mentioned. I think I could have thought of a much better title. But, as I said, I like her books and will probably read more of them. 

Did you know FM is a doctor? Never would have thought that, altho she does get bloody a lot.

@Judaline I read a couple of her books & I didn't hate them, but they just weren't a "great" read for me.

So, the story always sounds good, but I don't read her any more.

I've enjoyed her books that I've read.  Looking forward to the next/new one.

Have never read any of her books.  Will have to look them up on the library website.

I believe the correct title is The Housemaid is Watching
