I was given this book by NetGalley for an honest review -
Freya and her daughter Sky are looking for an apartment after her husband dies. She meets Dr. mausden who offers he a great deal on an apartment. She and her daughter love it so decide to take it.
But then - - strange things begin to happen,
What is going on in this house?
Are they safe?

Freya & her daughter have to unfortunately move house after Skye's father and Freya's ex partner passes away. Freya is approached by Dr Marsden and offered a flat in Adder House. Freya accepts and can't believe her luck at first! Everything seems so wonderful, but as time goes on and Freya starts meeting all the residents she finds out things are not as they seem. I enjoyed the book overall but felt the ending was a little rushed. I could relate to Freya and the storyline was enjoyable with plenty of shocks along the way.

Wow! What a twisty psychologically taut thriller! When Freya falls on hard times due to circumstances beyond her control her main priority is to make sure her 5 year old daughter is secure. Part of which is finding an affordable place to live. A tall order in London. So when a Dr. Marsden approaches her at the notice board in a busy coffee shop offering a place that ticks off all the boxes and more, Freya can’t believe what she’s being offered. But the gorgeous apartment in the affluent neighbourhood of Kensington checks out and moving day is imminent. She begins to notice that all the neighbours although well meaning are a bit odd. But Freya must not look a gift horse in the mouth. However when weird things begin to happen such as moved furniture, whispers and rumors start to circulate Freya must look into these odd disturbances. And when the tenants become a bit too focused on her child Skye, Freya must get to the bottom of this gorgeous home turned nightmare before it’s too late for them both.

A fast paced, interesting thriller from the great KL Slater. Special thanks to Netgalley and Amazon UK publishing for this exciting ARC.

This book introduces us to Freya and her daughter Skye, who are ready for a fresh new start when they are approached by a stranger offering a great deal on an apartment. The timing is perfect, so you know something more sinister is taking place.

She keeps feeling like she is being constantly watched and followed, but just brushes these feelings off. Odd things start happening, both at Skye's new school and around the apartment.

She meets a construction worker who tells her another single mother used to live in the same apartment and commited suicide, but of course this is no accident. The owners deny it, but she does her own detective work and discovers the awful truth.

This book had the potential to be really scary, but just fell flat as far as suspense. I kept thinking to myself, this better not be about vampires, but let's just say it is about a bunch of mad scientists, literally. I was, however, surprised by who was in charge of the whole operation and why their family got picked to live there.

This was definitely a mind blown, thought provoking psychological thriller. Freya was offered to live in a huge house decked out as apartments for a low rate not knowing what she was getting into. The fear instilled, thinking she’s going crazy, just to find out it all wasn’t real. Freya definitely didn’t know who to trust until it was too late. Definitely would recommend this book. It was a page turner.

Thank you so much for this ARC!

I feel like I absolutely flew through this book - I love that! I was so intrigued to see what was happening inside of Adder House and how the journal entries and experiment were going to tie in to the present day.

Such a great read and I recommend for anyone looking for a fast and interesting read.

I’ve never read anything by this author but the bright cover drew me in. Although this book was a little predictable and didn’t wow me like other thrillers I‘ve read, I look forward to checking out what else she has written. Thank you to Netgalley for the advanced copy!

I am not entirely sure that this book is by the same KL Slater that wrote Liar. The writing style is not the same, and it is just not as engaging as all the other work. The character development is lacking, and its all too convenient to believe. The ending left me disappointed. While this book was entertaining and had a good amount of psychology to it, the ending was rushed. There was a lot more potential with this plot. Wish i could leave a better review since I do love most of this author's work but this one did not cut it.

This book held my interest and a lot of the time, I didn't know where it was going. I enjoyed reading it. The premise is a bit of a stretch but it is a unique subject that in the thousands of books I've read, I haven't encountered before. I didn't really feel vested in the characters though. It was a bit stand offish in that way.

This is the first of K. L Slater's books that I have read, and although I enjoyed the concept of the story, I did find it rather predictable.

Freya and her young daughter Skye find themselves looking for a new home after the passing of Freya's husband Lewis. However, Lewis had left her before his untimely death to move in with his new partner. Freya can no longer afford to keep the house they bought together so has no choice but to sell it. Whilst in a coffee shop, she is approached by an older man - Dr Marsden, who offers her an opportunity she simply cant afford to miss.

And that is how they find themselves living in Adder House, a block of apartments that is filled with quite the array of characters.
From this point, things start to unravel and we find some interesting traits out about the other residents.

Throughout the book we also follow somebody reading from an old diary, the same person who appears to be watching Freya and Skye's every move.

This book was enjoyable enough to read, but I did find I could predict the ending from early on in the story. would however certainly not be deterred from reading other books by this author.

Thank you to Netgalley, Amazon Publishing and K L Slater for my advanced copy of this book for my honest review.

You know the old saying that if something seems too good to be true it probably is? Well that saying completely applies to The Apartment by K.L. Slater. I spent most of the book yelling at Freya in my head and telling her to get out, but no one ever listens.

The Apartment was a slow burn but also fast-paced if that makes sense, and I loved the writing. This was my first K.L. Slater book even though I've been meaning to read her books forever and I'm glad I finally did. I can already tell that I'm bound to love the rest of her novels.

I'm keeping this short because I don't want to give anything away, but if you're looking for a quick, twisty, and suspenseful read I would recommend The Apartment. I was surprised by the ending and overall really enjoyed it all. I will definitely be moving this author's other books up on my TBR now too!

Thank you to the publisher for my advance review copy via NetGalley. All opinions and thoughts are my own.

I really enjoyed this book! A great story line that kept me hooked and excellent main characters. I would highly recommend this book.

K.L Slater does it again! I've been a huge fan of hers every since I read "All the Pretty Girls" and this book was no different.
Freya and her 5 year old have been through a lot lately. She's a single mom who will be losing her home.
Suddenly, Dr. Marsden takes an interest in her and offers her an apartment for a too good to be true low rent.
Dr. Marsden seems to good to be true and of course once she is in the apartment, she begins to suspect things aren't what they seem.

Slater has a knack for great thrillers. This is one that keeps you guessing and actually does have an amazing surprise ending!

Thank you so much to NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this arc for my free and honest review.

This was a quick and enjoyable read. I enjoyed the suspense and the ending nicely wrapped everything up.

I always enjoy KL Slater books, easy reading, good storyline, lots of twists or 'hooks' as you read. I would say this book is no different. perhaps even more intriguing as the themes were in line with my job as a psychologist. Overall, get reading

I feel like this book had a lot of potential. It was t the creepy, suspenseful, story I had hoped for. While there were moments that I felt like could have built up to more, there weren’t a lot and they never got more intense.
Also, if an offer is too good to be true for an amazing apartment, guys, it is. Don’t fall for it. Half the time it’s haunted, the other half there are crazy people involved. Just saying.
The tie in with the whole Little Albert part I thought could have been done without also. While it did tie it together, it wasn’t particularly necessary to the main story as it could’ve been just a basic experiment. Overall, I’d say 3/5 stars from me.

Everything to love about K.L. Slater can be found right here in this book. It’s teaming with exemplary writing, an engaging storyline, and all the creepy twists and turns you can handle. Her characters are dynamic and hold this depth that makes the reader want to know more. A perfect read for bookclubs everywhere! 5 stars!

Thank you to #NetGalley for the ARC of #TheApartment, which was read and reviewed voluntarily.

This reminds me so much of another book I read recently (Lock Every Door by Riley Sager)...it was difficult to keep the stories separated.

Keep me wondering what twist would happen and how much strange would continue. Good story but didn't grip at any point.

Single mother Freya Miller is struggling after the betrayal & then death of her husband. Adrift with no money & no job she thanks her lucky stars when she meets Dr. Marsden at a coffee shop. He offers her an affordable apartment in the gorgeous Adder House. It seems to good to be true but she has no options. Soon Freya feels as though she’s being watched, objects are moved & she’s hearing strange sounds. Can she figure this out & escape with her daughter Skye in time?

I liked this book, it’s a really taut novel about paranoia & when do you start listening to your gut instinct? Freya has little options so you can understand why she moves into Adder House so quickly & why it’s hard to just up & leave when she starts noticing odd things. The ending is good, creepy for sure. However I felt there were a couple plot lines that didn’t go anywhere, it seemed like they were going to be more important. I would have liked more explanations on those ones & perhaps the ending was a tad rushed for me. But overall it’s a fast, short thriller that’s definitely worth your time.

Freya is at her lowest point, she has recently lost her husband and is now about to lose her home. She is worried where she and her young daughter Skye will live when she happens to meet a man putting out flyers for an apartment for rent. They start talking and he convinces Freya to come and look at his apartment as he believes that they will be a perfect fit.
When Freya sees the building she loves it, but worries that it is way beyond what she can afford. Dr. Marsden the landlord assures her that he will make the rent affordable. Freya and Skye move in and just as they are settling in, some very disturbing things start happening. Is the Adder House apartment all that it appears to be or are there some terrible hidden secrets behind its beautiful facade.
This mystery thriller is a great read and one that pulls you right into the story and its characters.
