Ahh i absolutely loved this book! This is probably my favorite Freida book! I was so scared for tegan the whole book! And the twists in it wow!!

4.5 Stars

Freida does it again! This one was more story driven versus twist and turns. It made me continue turning the pages to see what thing Polly would do next. Girl was absolutely crazy! Hank was such a sweetheart and put up with so much for love. That final twist at the end though? I did not think that was who it was gonna be!! Freida will always be an auto-read/buy author for me!

I started reading Mrs.Frieda Mcfaddens books about a year ago, and every book I have never seen the ending coming! I was in a head on collision Dec. 27th, 2023. I came home from the hospital New Year’s Eve. About two weeks later I went to say I seen Frieda post about “the crash” and her next book would be published. I was excited not only was it a Frieda McFadden book. But a book I would be able to relate to in a way. I will say all friends book are amazing, this book was no different! The only thing I wished more was the ending to be more of a twist of the plot. The plot was interesting and did keep me on my toes, but it gave the ending of the story away almost. But nonetheless the crash is an amazing book!! Thank you so so much Frieda to you & your team for sending me an arc of the crash!!

This book keeps you on the edge of your seat! It was so hard to put down! Freida, once again shocked me with the ending!

I love the premise of this story. The remote location, the blizzard, the isolated cabin… I was hooked from the very start.

For the first 30%, this book reminded me of two of my all-time favorite Freida books, The Housemaid and Never Lie! There was constant tension and suspense, and paired with the short chapters, it was impossible to put down.

I think the pace slowed down a bit about halfway through. Some parts became a bit repetitive. I still really enjoyed it, though.

I loved the protagonist, Tegan. I thought the other characters were also interesting (can’t say much more about them in fear of spoiling the plot). While the twist wasn’t anything too crazy or unexpected if you’ve read a lot of thrillers, I still liked the ending. It felt very satisfying.

Tegan is eight months pregnant, is lost in life, and living paycheck to paycheck. She really wants to get her life together for her baby but needs a break and decides to go visit her brother for the weekend. During the snowy drive up, she finds herself injured, unable to get out of her car., and her car damaged. A stranger picks her up and takes her to his house so his wife can take care of her. Tegan thinks she is in good hands until she finds out that this couple is not what they seem.

I really enjoyed this book. I liked how we got Tegan's and Polly's point of views. With their point of views, it shows how one person can read a situation one way and the other person will read a situation in the opposite direction. I was not expecting the ending to be great, but I was wrong and I am glad it ended the way it did.

This was such a great read! I was one of the lucky that received an ARC of this book.
The twists Freida creates in all of her books did not disappoint in this new book!

Now I love freida books but this one wasn’t the greatest for me. It did keep me guessing throughout but I got kinda bored throughout it. But nevertheless freida is an incredible author. Am I look forward to more books from her

4.25 stars

• Family Dynamics • Infertility • Rape • Mental Health

Tegan, pregnant from a one night stand, is feeling hopeful with what good is coming out of a bad situation - yet when the time comes, something terrible comes to focus. In an upset state, she decides to get out of town for a few days to visit her brother.

The crash, the stranger, the house, the lies. She doesn't know who to trust and time is limited.

This was yet another amazing read from Frieda. While I had some suspicions - I never guess all the twists in her books!

Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher and the author for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I was pulled in from the first page, and this book did not let me go until the final page. I was sweating, stressed out for our main character. I loved that there were a few smaller “twists” throughout the book. This was fast paced, easy to follow, and had my heart pounding!

Great thriller! I love the scenery in where the book takes place, it definitely made it more suspenseful. Overall, it keeps you engage and wondering whats next, who is the villain? Or villains. I was quite surprising it had multiple plot twists!

This was a quick read! I got it done in about 6 hours. The main character is likeable and there’s tons of twists and turns and just when you think you got it - you don’t! I have to admit it wasn’t my favorite of hers but still great!

I will read everything by Freida, she is my favorite thriller author. I will say this isn’t my favorite of hers but I still loved it and would recommend to anyone who loves a good thriller. In Freida fashion it has a twist at the end, We think we know the ending but then the twist gets you!

Freida has done it again! From the first page, she draws you in and doesn't let you go. I don't want to give away any spoilers, so if you like twists and turns and your mind being blown - this is the book you need to read!

I was lucky enough to be chosen to read an ARC of the newest Freida McFadden book, The Crash! It is hands down my new favorite book, the perfect read for the cold wintry season! The twists and turns of this book will keep you guessing the whole time.

Many thanks to Mandy for the digital ARC of The Crash! In true Freida fashion, The Crash keeps you hooked from page one and offers twists you won’t see coming. However, this book made me panic more than any other Freida book!!! I can’t tell you how many times I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding! ;)

I was so excited to get an ARC copy of this book! Wow.
It captivated me from the beginning. It had such a great message to the book. I feel like we don't get that much from Frieda. As always I thought I figured this book out and of course I didn't. This is a must read!!!

I need to preface this by saying that I am a huge fan of Freida McFadden. She is a big part of the reason I am here, writing this review. Her books drew me out of a painfully long reading slump. I stumbled upon a few of her books and that was it.

With that being said, I have to give this one a 3.8 (4 rounded up,) The story itself was solid. We weren't dealing with multiple POV's or characters, and the pace was quick. I completed the book in less than 24 hours.

Tegan is young, living in a questionable neighborhood, picking up as many shifts as possible at the local grocery store. The pay stinks, the hours are long, but it affords her the ability to live in a studio apartment and the discount on groceries helps. Tegan dreams of being a nurse. She would love to go back to school, but there is one hiccup. Tegan is eight months pregnant, and the father isn't in the picture.

****SPOILERS AHEAD****



Ok, here we go. At the point where we learn that the father is very wealthy and is willing to provide financial security in return for no-contact, I was thinking this would turn into a fatal attraction situation. OR once Tegan realizes it was rape and not a one-night stand, she would be looking for justice.

Instead, I was handed a combination of Misery and Inside. Tegan takes one hit after another, and each is more grandiose than the last. The perpetrator becomes the hero and the (supposed) protector is the villain...it is a lot. Then there is a sub plot that is wrapped up with a happy ending for the woman who was willing to commit a heinous crime, and would have, had her husband not stepped in.

Finally, many trigger warnings in this one. Please check out Freida's website for more details.

I am incredibly grateful to have been chosen for this ARC - while this may not have been my favorite, that doesn't mean that it won't be yours!

Many thanks to Mandy at Sourcebooks for the ARC. Thank you also to NetGalley, and Freida McFadden.

The Crash will be available on January 28, 2025!

This is Freida’s beat yet! I consumed this in a day. Couldn’t put it down and per usual you think you know but you have no idea! Teagan is you and alone a very pregnant driving to see her brother and has an accident and then seemingly rescued. Such a fast paced suspenseful read for me. Loved every second of this book

Okay, this was surprisingly like a hard pill to swallow. I liked Ward D better. It just feels like every time she released a new book, the plot is a bit similar to the previous one. I was hoping that this time it's different. I thought it would be based on the summary/blurb that I read before requesting. I'm not sure why I keep reading but it's like a drug that once you have taken once, you can't help but reach for it again. Lol.

I'm entertained anyway to say the least. But now I'm just not sure if the next ones are worth it.

Thank you for the eARC!
