This was a fantastic read. It was very fast paced. It grabs you from the beginning and keeps you turning pages until the very end. The writing was great and the characters were likable and well developed.

Totally loved this book with creepy house and creepy kid vibes. This books leaves, you questioning every character, not knowing who you can trust. I was so happy to see this all. Come together in the end, never would’ve guessed what happened!

First book I haven’t been able to put down in awhile! The main character was likable and I enjoyed seeing her personal journey as she helped the Barclay family. Highly recommend! 5 stars!

This one here!! You get two mysteries in one! Both of the mysteries of who killed the babysitter & who killed her Stella’s mom. You get flashbacks to her youth because she to lost her voice when something traumatic happened to her as a child. Now Stella is appointed to Rose the 9 yr old and she’s figuring out what best suits the child’s best interests.

This fast paced thriller will keep you guessing from beginning to end. Very interesting plot & so suspenseful! Truly an amazing story!

If you live psychological thrillers you will love this one!

"House of Glass" by Sarah Pekkanen is an absolute page-turner! I was completely captivated from start to finish, staying up all night just to unravel its gripping storyline. Pekkanen's skillful writing had me feeling every ounce of fear alongside the lead character, making for an unforgettable reading experience. Five stars without a doubt!

This book had so many twists and turns, and I didn’t see them all coming. I love how everything wrapped up neatly, keeping me entertained. This was a very enjoyable read!

House of Glass by Sarah Pekkanen. I think I am the odd man out with this review. The writing flows well but I thought it was all pretty predictable. I did not enjoy having to rehash the assigned lawyers past and felt her feelings in present day should not have been used so much. I think this particular character would have been more believable with some psychological training added to her law degree. Thank you NetGalley for the chance to read this book,

Wow!!! I am blown away by this book. This author absolutely kills it every time. I was taken in from the very first page and could not get enough of this book! It was fast-paced, mysterious, filled with drama, and all the thrills. I was not sure who or what to believe! 5⭐️ all the way!!

I was offered an ARC of this book from netgalley in exchange for an honest review! Thank you to the publishers and netgalley for this ARC!

This was a really great palette cleanser. I enjoyed the whole “vibe” of the book, the writing and imagery made me feel like I was in the middle of it all which I loved! I enjoyed the characters and the complications throughout intrigued me! However… it just fell a bit flat. It felt forced, and the “twist” wasn’t as satisfying for me as I would have liked.

Overall It was the perfect read after finishing a long series and the tension throughout definitely re-sparked my love of thrillers after being consumed by the fantasy genre for a while now

I found this book to be an easy and quick read. The author did a good job os keeping the reader guessing about suicide or murder. When Stella the BIA ( best Interest of the child attorney) agrees to take 9 year old Rose as a client, she believes it was murder, but who did it. Was it one of her parents or the grandmother who lives with them. Using first person narrative from Stella's point of view gave the reader insight into all the main characters which kept the reader guessing as to “ Who done it”. Near the end of the book, Pekkanen has helped the reader to narrow it down to just two suspects.

Pekkanen, also ,skillfully weaves two subplots into the novel without the reader even realizing it. Again, I think this is due to the first person narrative. These two subplots only come to light near the end of the novel. The novel is a well developed mystery story, but it is not a thriller which it never purports to be. It is only near the end that the reader is concerned that help will come too late for Stella. I definitely recommend it for all who enjoy mysteries.I’m giving it a 4star rating only because I felt that the character of Rose was just too much for readers to accept.

3.5 Stars
This was an interesting book. It kept me guessing about what was going on and who was guilty.

I thoroughly enjoyed this story and kept trying to figure out what was happening right up to the end! Great characters and an unusual storyline made this a fun read. Stella is appointed as counsel for 9-year-old Rose, who has stopped talking after the death of her nanny, who fell (or was pushed??) out of a third-story window. Rose's parents, Beth and Ian, are in the midst of a divorce, and Stella is to decide who Rose would be better off with after the divorce. We also meet Ian's mother Harriet, who has been living with the family. Lots of twists and turns in this story, and very believable characters.

Sarah Pekkanen’s books with Greer Hendricks are some of my favorite thrillers, so I was so pumped to get the arc of her newest! House of Glass is such a thrilling, page-turning whodunnit and kept me hooked from beginning to end. I really liked the pov of a child’s best interest attorney as opposed to a detective, and the family she investigated was so creepy and unnerving. I genuinely didn’t know who killed Tina until it was revealed at the end, and the way the pieces all came together was satisfying! Thank you NetGalley and St Martins Press for the arc

an affair, a nanny murdered, trying to figure out what happened and who did it!?! need i say more????? great thriller!!!!!

looking from the outside in the Barclay family is perfect but on the inside they are falling apart. Beth and Ian are in a nasty divorce which is affecting sweet 9 year old Rose, One day Tina the Nanny has plunged to her death but she she jump or was she pushed, Rose has witnessed this and had reverted to not speaking. There were only four other people in the house besides Rose when this occurred, Ian and Beth, Ian's mom Harriet and Tina, So the question becomes did one of them kill Tina or was it really an accident, Enter Stella a court appointed attorney for Rose to put her best interest first, As Stella helps Rose she she finds out about the secrets the Barclay's are keeping and they want them to stay secret, As the police investigate Tina's death will the Barclays be able to stop Stella from telling them the secrets? and will the figure out what really happen to Stella and will Rose be ok? This was a great who dunnit book, The characters were so unpredictable that and so many twist and turns in the story that I had no idea about the ending till it happened and it was great ending,

I love stories about beautiful people and their perfect lives, then something happens that rips away the golden facade. That's what this glittering, twisty, well written novel is about. A nanny dies mysteriously, the witness is a child who refuses to speak, the parents are in the midst of an ugly divorce. No one is who they appeared to be to the outside world and it's up to a lawyer, Stella, to unfold the mysteries of this family. This book was a lot of fun! Settle in and enjoy.

Did she fall or was she pushed? The nanny for an 8 year old girl is found dead on the ground and the entire family she was living with are suspects. The case is now considered a cold case. Stella has been appointed to determine the best living arrangements for the girl as a result of the parents divorce. The entire family seems off to her and as she investigates she finds strange happenings. The girl, Rose, is traumatized but we don’t find out exactly why until almost the end of the story. There’s also another mystery Stella is working on concerning her mother. Because of the various things going on in this book it was easy to keep reading to find out how everything is resolved. There is lots of tension and it kept me guessing about what really happened. This is a well written book. I received an arc of this book from NetGalley and the publisher. All opinions expressed are my own.

“Evil isn’t merely a word. It’s a tangible, dimensional thing. It slithers through the air shifting molecules and displacing energy as it considers various hunting grounds.”

Stella is brought into a case with an ugly divorce. She hasn’t seen one like this before. The nanny is dead, the parents are hiding something and the child, Rose, won’t talk. It’s her job as the lawyer to determine who is the best fit for custody of Rose. The death of the nanny is now a cold case but as Stella tries to learn more about the family she unravels more than she expected.

As I began reading I was immediately drawn into the characters and the storyline. Stella is a strong woman who many can relate to and someone you’d naturally want to cheer on. Each character had me questioning theirs motives. I was left wondering who was the victim and who was the killer down to the very end. This novel will have you questioning is evil something that is within someone naturally? Is evil something that comes out when someone is pushed to their limits? Or is evil subjective?

Quick, satisfying psych thriller! Has a similar vibe to The Push if you’re a fan of that one. An investigator is hired to make a decision in a custody battle after their nanny is suspiciously killed. There’s many different pieces to the puzzle and some twists I wasn’t expecting! I loved the description of Rose and how anybody could be the murderer. An easy one day read
