I couldn’t put this book down! Told from the mothers and daughters point of view, which I enjoyed. So fast paced and so many twists and turns, a great read!

Thank you to NetGalley and Knopf, Pantheon, Vintage, and Anchor for the ARC of Like Mother, Like Daughter.

Like Mother, Like Daughter tells the story of a mother, Kat, and daughter, Cleo and their complex relationship once Kat goes missing. Cleo unravels the truth about Kat’s life and her career as she tries to figure out what happened to her mother.

While I enjoyed this book, I found it difficult to keep track of all of the characters and their specific roles in the book. The ending was a twist, but seemed to be somewhat far- fetched.

Like Mother, Like Daughter is available for purchase on July 9, 2024.

Like Mother, Like Daughter by Kimberly McCreight did not disappoint! I enjoyed the story and the characters and had a hard time putting the book down! Thank you to Net Galley, Kimberly McCreight and the publisher for the opportunity to read the ARC of this novel!

Thank you NetGalley for the ARC of Kimberly McCreight's Like Mother, Like Daughter.

Having read several of McCreight's previous works, I was so excited to receive an ARC. It did not disappoint! McCreight is the master at writing tumultuous mother/daughter relationships. The characters were well fleshed out, the story line engaging and the mystery kept me guessing until the end.I highly recommend this one!

Kimberly McCreight will stay a must read for me!

I've been anxiously awaiting the next book from Kimberly McCreight and this one did not disappoint. I am greatly appreciative of Netgalley and Knopf, Pantheon, Vintage, and Anchor for giving me the opportunity to read Like Mother, Like Daughter in exchange for an honest review. I could not put McCreight's most recent work down. I simply had to know which of the smartly written story lines was responsible for Kat's disappearance. As her daughter Cleo decides to investigate after NYPD seems to mess up at multiple turns, I needed to know if it was Kat's past or present that led to her going missing from her Park Slope home. Cleo's digging into her Kat's life leads to her finally understanding the mothershe hasn't gotten along with for years. McCreight kept me guessing until the end.

Where They Found Her is one of my favorite books of years past, so I'm constantly comparing each of Kimberly McCreight's new books to the way I felt when reading that one and so far... they don't match up. Like Mother, Like Daughter was very good, with lots of twists, and things I definitely didn't see coming, but it just didn't knock me out of the park. Maybe I've read one too many wild BookTok recommendations at this point. 3.5 to 4 stars

I couldn’t put this book down! I loved the mother/daughter points of view and the multiple conflicts of interest. I was so intrigued the whole time wondering what happened to Kat and why.

LOVED this one! When her mom disappears, Cleo immediately is concerned and wants answers but what she finds isn’t at all what she expected. This had major “Pieces of Her” vibes with some Ruth Ware level suspense mixed in. Highly recommend.

This book was a page turner I loved loved loved it! it started off fast and that's how I like it I loved t he POV from everyone especially the mom! felt so realistic . I think the book was a face paced page turner and I loved it from everyone's POV. Once I started reading this I could not put it down, I loved the book cover and this book is 5/5 the twists , drama ect were awesome I love domestic situations!

Thanks so much NetGalley and Knopf, Pantheon, Vintage, and Anchor.

Cleo is late to a dinner at her childhood home. She finds the food burnt and her mom's bloody shoe under the sofa. Something bad has happened. Kat, her mom, is a successful lawyer. She's also been lying. SHe's been receiving demands from her soon to be ex husband as well as other threats.

I loved Reconstructing Amelia and was excited to read this! It's told from Cleo in the present and Kat in the recent past. There's also transcripts of Cleo's therapy. There are so many twists that it was hard to put down. I liked both Cleo and Kat in this one and appreciated their relationship.

ARC - I love Kimberly’s books. This one was not my favorite but good, loved the different perspectives in the chapters. I love when there is some mixed media in a book. It overly exciting or surprising but had some good twists along the way.

4.5/5

I couldn’t put this book down.
It goes between the perspectives of mother and daughter. There’s also news articles and a transcript of the daughter’s talks with her therapists. There’s so many twists and you don’t know who did it. Everyone is a little guilty of something so you don’t know for sure who to believe.

Very very good!!!! Definitely recommend

A mother has a wonderful relationship with her daughter until her daughter is in college and gets involved with a student drug dealer. Kat - her mother is a fixer - working with lawyers clients who need help when they get into trouble. She didn't approve of her daughter Cleo's first boyfriend and managed to break them up and now that Cleo is involved with the drug dealer, of course Kat "fixed" that problem. Kat invites Cleo to come for dinner to try to salvage their relationship, however when Cleo arrives it is clear that someone has broken in and there is blood in the apartment. Cleo calls the police who begins an investigation, but Cleo decides to investigate on her own. She finds out her parents are no longer together and although she has always sided with her father - she thinks she might have misjudged her mother. There are twists and turns. Cleo finds out about her mother's terrible childhood and more about her father. I think the characters were well written and the ending well done.
If you haven't read this author's book Reconstructing Amelia, I recommend it as well.
I wish to thank Knopf publishing for providing an ARC of this book for an honest review.

Wow just wow. I loved this book. I loved everything about this book. The complicated mother daughter relationship, the mother’s mysterious past, and lastly the will and drive of the daughter to find out what happened to her mother - just like any mother would do. You won’t see the twists and turns coming! If you loved Sarah Pekkanen’s Gone Tonight you will love this book!

This was my first book by this author and I look forward to reading more from her. This was definetly a story that had me guessing the entire time. I don't want to give it away, but it's definetly not who you think it is, even though you think it's that person. ;-) Will be recommending this one for sure!

Thank you to netgalley for a copy of this arc in exchange for an honest review.

I was thrilled to receive this book because I have enjoyed her writing previously. This book didn’t disappoint. There was a lot going on so it was definitely hard to decipher where the book was going. My head was spinning trying to figure it out. First of all the mom has a lot of baggage. Everywhere you turn there is a suspect. She has a mysterious past. A intriguing job. A faithless ex husband and a surprisingly scandalous daughter. When the mother goes missing I was like well great. It could be anyone.

I love Mccreight’s writing and was thrilled to get this as an ARC.

I found this to be well paced with great character development and an interesting plot. That being said, I felt like there was almost a little TOO much happening as far as divergent threads and motives to follow, which I felt detracted a bit from the overall story which I did like.

I did also predict the major plot twist despite the numerous red herrings thrown in, but still enjoyed this overall!

I received a copy of this book from NetGalley.
I should have seen that ending, but I did not! There were times I would get confused because it is written from two people’s POV, but that’s more a me thing, than something the author did. Overall, this was a really enjoyable book and will definitely be telling others about it!

Heart pounding thriller that left me on the edge of my seat. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one. Definitely one of the best books this year.

A fast-paced, twisty domestic thriller about a missing woman (and powerful corporate fixer) and her estranged daughter’s race to find out what happened to her. I couldn’t put it down.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC!
