Another great frieda McFadden book. Her books are always a quick and easy read. Thank you net galley!

This was my first Freida McFadden book, and I was so excited to read this, as she's such a popular author. However, for me, this book fell a little flat

Really enjoyed this book and love anything written by this author. Super twisty and turning with a surprising ending.

This book didn't 'wow' me but it was still a good listen! This author writes good popcorn thrillers. They are quick, twisty, and while the plot might not be the best and the characters might be annoying I still enjoy giving them a try. What's nice is the narrator did a good job of keeping my interest and at 2.5x. I was able to finish it in an afternoon while at work. While I did find a few things problematic and unrealistic it's important to remember this is a fictional thriller story so I'm not expecting every plot point to make sense. Overall, I would recommend this one even if it was easy to figure out.

Freida McFadden's books have been hit or miss for me but this one is definitely in the hit category. Amy is a medical student who has to do an overnight rotation in the psych ward. As if that isn't daunting enough she ends up there with the last person she wants to be stuck with and she finds out one of her patients is a blast from the past. Of course she would be weirded out in an isolated psych ward, that at times seems eerily quiet. Then she can't seem to find other staff when she needs them, strange things start happening with the patients. What is really going on in Ward D? Top notch twist at the end as you would expect. I sped right through this one.

Freida is the MASTER of the blindside in the best way possible. When you think you have it right you might but you don’t.. and the it twists you again and you’re left dumbfounded. The last chapter of this book shook me to my damn core - holy crap!!

What can I say another best seller. Another binge able suspense book that leaves the reader wanting more

Not my top books from freida but at least a few times per week someone buys this copy. Once i talked to someone about it i increased my rating

So so good! My new favorite Freida McFadden book. It was shocking and I couldn’t stop reading!! It was so suspenseful and I didn’t see the twist at the end.

Freida McFadden does suspense like no other. Had to finish the whole book in one night — could not put it down, or I would not have slept!

I read this in one sitting. The story has a great, suspenseful atmosphere, and I was on edge all the time over what would happen. I highly recommend this book to all lovers of suspense novels.

Ward D might be my favorite Freida McFadden book yet. It's over-the-top in all the right ways. A med student's overnight shift on a psychiatric ward takes a terrifying turn, with twists that kept me flipping pages.
Creepy, fast-paced, and pure Freida.

Once again Freida had me shocked with her twist! This book was such a quick read that had be hooked from the start.

As someone who has read many of Freida McFadden’s books, I went into Ward D with high expectations—and she didn’t disappoint. Known for her sharp psychological twists and fast-paced storytelling, McFadden delivers another gripping thriller that kept me turning pages late into the night.

The story follows Amy Brenner, a medical student doing a dreaded overnight shift on Ward D, a locked psychiatric unit. Things quickly go from uneasy to terrifying as the night unravels—her ex-boyfriend mysteriously vanishes, the power goes out, and Amy finds herself surrounded by unpredictable patients and secrets from her own past. As reality blurs and danger mounts, Amy must figure out who she can trust—if anyone.

The book is tense, atmospheric, and full of twists that fans of McFadden will expect (and still be surprised by). Her use of unreliable narration keeps you guessing until the very end. While the portrayal of mental illness may feel over-the-top at times, the story’s suspense and pacing more than make up for it.

Verdict: Ward D is another solid win for McFadden—dark, twisty, and highly entertaining. If you’ve enjoyed her previous books, this one definitely belongs on your reading list.

I love the short chapters and the easy english. But I don't like the rest of the book. There did not happen much, it was pretty boring for me.

I have never read anything by this author, but I will be looking out for other books they write in the future. I really enjoyed the story as well as the pacing of the story.

Being an absolute fan of the author I had high hopes from this one too. While the book was still paced good and had a good story, the plot wasn’t as suspenseful and intriguing as it usually is from the author. It lacked a bit of depth and intensity and hence felt a bit of drag in the middle. That being said, I would still pick her books any day being a mystery thriller enthusiast.

Ward D by Freida McFadden is a fast-paced, suspenseful thriller that kept me hooked. It follows Amy, a medical student on a 24-hour shift in a locked psych ward, where things quickly go from normal to terrifying. The story blends medical drama with psychological twists, and the creepy setting adds to the tension. Some twists were predictable, and a few characters felt underdeveloped, but overall, it was a gripping and eerie read. Great for fans of dark, medical-themed thrillers. Thank you NetGalley for the ARC.

Freida McFadden doesn't disappoint with this thriller. This book was hard to put down. If you enjoy books that constantly have you changing your idea of what is happening and who is evil this is the one for you.

Would you want to spend the night in a locked psychiatric ward? Well Ward D is about medical student Amy who has to spend the night in the locked psychiatric ward but the catch is she has her reasons why she doesn't want to do this and those reason she plans on keeping hidden. This had me captivated from the start and I could not stop turning the pages until the end. All of the characters in this were great. I loved how descriptive the book was since I felt like I was right there with Amy. The author did an amazing job writing this one. Every twist and turn revealed in this was so good. I loved this book and would recommend to any reader especially to those who love thrillers. Thank you to NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for this amazing read in exchange of my honest review of Ward D by Freida McFadden.
