This was an entertaining but frustrating read at the same time. I thought I had everything figured out.

A Must Read Book! An absolute belter of a book, which kept me reading on and on.
A reminder that you never know who you can trust and life can be turned upside down in an instant.
I did have an inkling who the culprit was about three quarters of the way through but not enough to not keep me guessing. Amazing!

A very good thriller. This was quite twisty a d kept you guessing until the end. I raced through this one. My thanks to netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest review.

Lies, betrayal, and countless secrets play a major role in the lives of Hannah and Max. Could Max be a murderer? Hannah is determined to uncover the connection between her husband, Max, and a dead woman, Alice. Who was this a mysterious woman and did she know Max? “ When someone dies, it's like you don't want to see any bad in them. And none of us are saints, are we?” I was completely immersed in Hannah’s struggle to unlock the mystery of the girl in room 12. As soon as I thought I knew where the story was going, an unexpected twist would occur leading the plot in a surprising direction. This thriller is unpredictable, original, and extremely addictive. Thank you, NetGalley and Bookouture for my copy.

Hannah and Max, a married couple with a daughter named Poppy, seem to have it all however all's not well and cracks begin to show as Max's late nights and unpredictable moods increasingly frustrate Hannah. When a local woman is murdered in a hotel, Hannah's suspicions skyrocket upon discovering a key card to the scene in Max's possession. Could Max be having an affair, or worse, be involved in the murder of Alice, whose body was just discovered by the police?

While The Girl in Room 12 is a tense thriller with well developed characters that kept me engaged, I did find certain parts dragged on a bit. Nevertheless, I persisted, and I'm glad I did. This gripping read kept me guessing until the very end, earning it 4 stars from me.

I would like to thank Bookouture & NetGalley for providing an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest and fair review

I really enjoyed the unpredictability of this one. I was questioning characters, and their motives. I honestly couldnt put it down. Filled with secrets and lies, and of course twists and turns.

This was a really good read, I enjoyed this so much I couldn’t put it down. There was plenty of twists and turns throughout with an unexpected ending that you don’t see coming. The characters were great, the story itself was very suspenseful and the style of writing was perfect.
I have read other books by this author and I have loved them all.
I would recommend this psychological thriller and its author to anyone who likes to read this genre.

Well I’ve got to say that I saw this entire book coming and I could have told you what was going to happen and I would have been totally WRONG! I was shocked and so glad that I didn’t see all these twists. So good.

A great read
A book you will not want to put down
A very good thriller

Thank you to Netgalley, Bookouture, and Kathryn Croft for an advance copy of this book in exchange for an honest review

This book was OK but in a genre that sets the bar high, this book for me fell a little short of the mark. It just got a tad far fetched which ultimately lost my interest in the story

What does Hannah's husband Max know about the death of a woman in a local hotel, when Hannah finds a room key for the said hotel in , Max's pocket she is shocked & when she realises that the death was on a night max was not home Alice knows she need to find out what is going on.
Great twisting thriller with a superb plot and writing

Kathryn Croft is one of my go-to authors when I need a quick and thrilling read that will keep me fully engaged. I love her writing style, and The Girl in Room 12 was a very entertaining read. I was fully invested in this book for the first half, but I did predict the ending early on. Some parts of the book were a little outlandish, but I appreciated the secondary twists throughout the book. The characters were great, and I loved that I did not know who to trust. Overall, this was a fun read!

Kathryn Croft has done it again, a shame her of a book; with its relentless action and heart-stopping suspense, this novel is sure to keep readers on the edge of their seats.

It' was ok. Not much satisfied with it.
Bookstore owner Hannah reads on the news that someone named Alice Hughes has been found dead in a hotel in their small town. While putting her husband's jacket in the closet, she finds a door card of the same hotel in his pocket and suspects that Max may be involved in the crime and has cheated on her with Alice. He has been behaving strangely lately too, even though he claimed that he is going through a difficult period at work. Trying to investigate on her own, Hannah runs into Alice's friend Taylor, who also wants to know what happened. When Max has once again told Hannah he has to stay at work longer, soon the police appears at the door, telling Max was attacked and is in hospital. It turns out that he does not remember the last six months of his life. No way for Hannah to confront him now.. In addition to all the difficulties of keeping her daughter Poppy away from Max and dealing with suspicions, Hannah is often followed by a gray Volkswagen Golf..
I didn't connect with any of the characters.
Thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for giving me an advance copy.

This was an okay read but there were so many things that were unlikely to happen that it threw the story off.

Wow!

Everything I want in a book is here. The thrill, the emotions, character development, the pacing and the well-drawn out twist!

Kudos to the author!

3.75*

This was such a gripping read, I devoured it in under 3 hours!

I had my suspicions about every single person within the book, and at moments I thought I’d figured it out … but I couldn’t have been more wrong!!

The book was full of twists and turns, and I’d never have guessed the main plot twist. I do wish there had been some sort of tiny hint in the buildup to it, as I feel like this would have added more to the plot and made the experience even better for the reader.

Overall, I really enjoyed this - I needed a fast-paced and gripping thriller & this one hit the spot for me.

Thank you to the author, publisher & Netgalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest opinion.
