Hold onto your seat and keep reading; the twists and turns keep coming. This one you won't want to put down until you're done!

Aimee Molloy certainly does not disappoint with her sophomore release, Goodnight, Beautiful. There is so much to love about this novel. The unreliable narrator of part one was such a clever twist. It was bold of Molloy to drop the veil on that angle so early in the story. Breaking from the traditional gender roles by having two male characters carrying the plot is also refreshing. I adore the homage to Stephen King and his iconic Misery! The pacing of the story is excellent, with all of the loose ends neatly tied up. If you are look for a short, fast-paced psychological thriller this one will be a hit! I can't wait for Aimee's next novel!

Absolutely jawdropping! A twisty unputdownable thriller. I literally wanted to scream out loud with some of the twisty turns. A must read!

A ‘Misery’ vibe to this book. Very twisted & twisty. I enjoyed the writing style & the characters. I really like this author; definitely recommend.

I would like to thank NetGalley, the publisher, and the author for giving me the opportunity to read this book in exchange for my honest review.

Interesting thriller that feels like a peaked too early and the remainder of the book was just filler. Also seems like it copycat of Stephen King's Misery.

I tried reading this book but it isn’t for me. I’d prefer not to give it a review since I didn’t finish it all.

This was my first book by Aimee Malloy. Goodnight Beautiful had all the ingredients for a great story; creepy vibe, psychological aspect, missing husband but the ending just fell flat for me. There were plenty of twists and turns and it definitely kept my attention I was just expecting more of a wow finish. I would still recommend reading it and decide for yourself. Thank you Net Galley for the free copy in exchange for my honest review.

Aimee Molloy's Goodnight Beautiful is a twisty page-turner that is cleverly plotted with surprising but believable revelations until the very end. Psychological thriller fans will want to add this to their TBRs.

This book had some jaw-dropping twists! It is quite the thriller—expect the unexpected while reading! I could not stop reading once I started.

A psychological thriller with a fresh spin. Nothing is as it seems and the reader will be fooled not once but twice in this page turning mystery told from several characters point of view.

well this one was incredibly interesting. It kind of flips the typical “unreliable female MC” stereotype on its head, but in doing so, was incredibly confusing - at least in the beginning. This book had so many twists that it was a bit hard to keep up with, but kept me interested all the while. There were a couple things I really enjoyed about the book (but can’t really say without giving anything away). Let’s just say, it doesn’t play into a lot of the same things you consistently see in domestic thrillers, and in that sense, it was refreshing. ⁣

Have you ever listened to an audiobook and then wished you had read the print version instead? This doesn’t happen to me very often, I LOVE audiobooks and lately that’s been the main way I’ve even been able to focus on a book, but unfortunately that’s what happened with this one. Let me clarify a little though, it really didn’t have anything to do with the narrators themselves, they were all good but more that I wish maybe there was just one narrator instead of several. I know that sounds vague and confusing but I’m really trying hard to avoid spoilers here. I think my friend @kate_reads put it best when she told me, there are choices that need to be made in the audio that are tough and aren’t an issue in a written book. But I felt like they handled it the best way possible. She’s 100 percent right and I think my rating for this would’ve been higher had I read the print version. All of that to say I do recommend this one still, it was twisty and addictive and definitely held my attention but just know I really think this is best on paper.

book that you think you see coming but you absolutely don't. Spins many tropes used in this genre on their head and throws them out the window. Molloy also uses the timeline and point of view structure to completely mess with your head. Brilliant!

Thank you so much @HarperCollins for sending me the eARC of Goodnight Beautiful by Aimee Molloy. In this psychological thriller, a newly married woman's handsome husband goes missing in their small town.

A handsome psychotherapist. His lonely wife. And in his home office ceiling, a vent …

You’d listen too, wouldn’t you? (You know you would.)

Newlyweds Sam Statler and Annie Potter are head over heels, and excited to say good-bye to New York City and start a life together in Sam's sleepy hometown upstate. Or, it turns out, a life where Annie spends most of her time alone while Sam, her therapist husband, works long hours in his downstairs office, tending to the egos of his (mostly female) clientele. Little does Sam know that through a vent in his ceiling, every word of his sessions can be heard from the room upstairs. The pharmacist's wife, contemplating a divorce. The well-known painter whose boyfriend doesn’t satisfy her in bed. Who could resist listening? Everything is fine until the French girl in the green mini Cooper shows up, and Sam decides to go to work and not come home, throwing a wrench into Sam and Annie's happily ever after.

This book is hard to review, but that's mostly because it's difficult to discuss the plot without giving away major spoilers. I can say that the characters felt very real and believable, and Molloy is a master at subverting expectations--I thought I had certain things figured out until the twists came! I was caught completely off guard and I was hooked! The experience was made even better thanks to @librofm since I read while listening to the amazing ALC--the narrators brought the characters to life even more! If you're a fan of slow, mysterious thrillers that are more character based, Goodnight Beautiful is out now!

Psychological thriller about a Psychologist who goes missing and his new wife who refuses to give up on him. The author borrows some themes from other thrillers and weaves them into this one to create an entertaining, twisty (twisted) novel.

I am always intrigued by the unreliable narrator technique. Aimee Molloy has taken the technique to new heights in Goodnight Beautiful. Sam thinks his life is going well - new wife, new practice, new office, a possible/probable inheritance.... but nothing's ever perfect. I appreciated Ms Molly's ability to keep her twists unsuspected. The twists and turns take the reader on a fascinating ride through several psyche's, I daresay you might doubt your own intuition and detective skills. The story is well plotted, perhaps not so much a thriller, but definitely a psychological suspense. I will read more form Aimee Molloy. 4.0
I received my copy through NetGalley under no obligation.

Hmmm. The audio of this book is the most interesting narrative track I have ever listened to, not in a good way, but also not in a bad way? The physical/digital copies are a much better read, in my opinion.

I liked the pacing and enjoyed reading the last 1/4, but the audio threw me off. I understand WHY it was the way that is was, but it was a very jarring experience. Read this one physically--it will pack more of a punch!

3.5 for a weirdly thrilling experience...?

I truly enjoyed this psychological thriller by Molloy. There were definite twists that I did not see coming. In fact, I had to reread parts because I was just not expecting the twists. This book has it all: unreliable narrator, crazy character, crazy twists. Highly recommend!

Rating: 5 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 !!!!!!!

What the freak? Are you freaking kind me?!! GASP!! These are just the audible things I said as I read Goodnight Beautiful. Molloy hits you with a twist or reveal around every corner. The first 2 reveals where just so 😨 😨 😨 😨 that I sat there dumbfounded before moving on!! I even had to reread a part just to make sure I didn’t miss anything. I couldn’t read this book fast enough. I love the connection to a certain other story that I can’t reveal without it being a spoiler. What I can tell you is this is a MUST read of 2020. I would love to know what you think after you read it!!!
