Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC of this book. I have chosen to write this honest review voluntarily and it reflects my personal opinion.
The blurb promises a thriller as Esther tries to recover from the death of her children, husband and sister whilst noticing abusive behaviour in the family who live at number 19. It becomes clear within the first few pages (immediately after the prologue) that Esther has issued with her mental health, and the plot of the story becomes obvious. Descriptions of what Esther is thinking become laboriously over-long so that reading pages became like reading through treacle. I read 15% before abandoning it.
If the blurb had accurately described the story and includes a trigger warning about mental illness content I might have been prepared to read it but it was not the promised psychological thriller.

A twisted, heart wrenching story. I read it in one sitting because I needed answers. You really feel the characters grief and heartache.

The kind of book that keeps you up at night, wanting to finish and savor the book all at once, a story of grief, and full of twists and turns and keeps you guessing,

Told from two points of view. Esther already struck by grief and a sense of hopelessness after losing her husband and kids in a car accident finds out that her sister Charlotte had an affair with her husband. She threatened to take away her kids. Charlotte was in the car also but survived the crash. It all makes Esther resent her even more. Her grip on reality dwindles. She witnesses how a woman abuses her kids in the form of hitting and manipulating them so Esther has the instincts to save these kids and sees it as her new purpose. She needs to get them out of that toxic situation as a way of rescuing some kids if not her own. Thanks Netgalley and the publisher for the advance ecopy.

O my goodness, this was such a good book. I read it in one sitting! I had to know what was going on and what was going to happen. The twist at the end surprised me so much, I never would have guessed!! I would definitely recommend this book.

I don’t know why I feel like I’ve read this before, because it was published in 2019, and I know that I haven’t read it. Even though I guessed what was going on, it was still quite enjoyable to read. The ending had a few extra surprises, and the whole story was a stark look at mental illness. Four stars for a solid psychological thriller.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC.
Another great book by JA Baker. I have yet to read a book by this author that I didn't like.
This one kept me guessing and I read through it pretty quickly.

Esther is obsessed with the strange woman at number 19. It gives off spooky vibes and I was interested in the beginning but quickly lost concentration with this book.

This story sounded quite interesting & I was excited to get stuck in. Unfortunately I found this one a little boring.

This was a really good book, I was completely hooked from the first page and stayed up way to maye reading because I couldn't put it down definitely recommend

Thank you Netgalley for the ARC of this book. This was a great read that kept me guessing until the end. Storyline and characters were very well done and the twist was unpredictable.

I liked this book but I couldnt say I loved it. I found it to be unrealistic . I like a book thats unpredictable and unfortunately this was too predictable for me.

Grief so overwhelming she is unable to function on a daily basis has locked Esther into her home where she can reflect on why she was so punished that her husband and children were killed in a car accident but she....and her sister....survived. As she slowly gives in to her grief, she finds herself watching the new family across the street. A husband, wife, son and daughter, just as her family used to be. When the mother's behavior borders on abuse, Esther must decide what to do. As Esther takes note of the increasingly troubled neighbors, unnoticed "things" begin to happen and Esther is not sure of the who, what, where, when and why. Just as this reader started figuring out the story, a uturn of gigantic proportions occurs and I'm left as clueless as Esther. JA Baker skillfully built these characters and their community to tell a thriller of a story.

The Woman At Number 19 is a fast paced book, that had my gripped and wanting to keep on reading, I really enjoyed reading it.

This was a fast paced exciting book to read. It had me hooked from the beginning. It’s a real page turner. It’s dark with lots of twists and turns to keep you hooked. Exciting plot that plays out well

Love JA Baker and have read them all, they get better and better each time, a real treat for thriller fans and you will not be disappointed

Loved this one, so twisty and full of red herrings. Will love to read more by this author if this one is anything to go by. Definitely worth 5 stars and more. My thanks to netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest review.

This book was originally published in 2019 and has now been re released. It is a fairly quick read as it is less than 300 pages long. It deals with grief and obsession, and although it was a little bit predictable in places I still enjoyed it, and would read more by this author in the future.
Thanks to netgalley and the publishers for this read.

*4 3/4 Stars*

Copy kindly received via NetGalley for an honest review.

This was a really great read. The ending was not what I expected, it really surprised me. The characters went through a lot. I liked the characters in this. Would recommend.

Very character driven, with little dialogue. I’m not sure I liked the perspective but I did like the premise.

I guessed the twist fairly early on but it didn’t detract from the overall reading experience but did leaving me asking WHY HOW WTF!

Very easy to read!
