I’ve read several Sue Watson books….and this one is just as good as the others. A husband and wife, a crazy new friend, a friend from the past, and lots of twists. This book definitely kept me guessing. I just knew there had to be yet another twist at the very end that I wouldn’t see coming…and yes, there was. I’d recommend this book to others.

Tom has been responsible for the renovation of their new home in Cornwall but Rachel is shocked and confused when she discovers he's installed a large swimming pool in the garden, He knows she's afraid of water (but why?) And why doesn't he want her being friends with Chloe? This entertaining read sees each chapter end with a cliff hanger of sorts that almost compels you to keep turning the pages. it's nicely twisty, Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC. No spoilers from me.

Stayed up late just to finish this book. When Rachel's dad dies and leaves her a nice sum of money they buy a large house and move there. Tom has the job of doing the house up whilst Rachel looks after their 4 year old son and sees about selling their own house.
The house is now ready and and move in. She soon makes friends with a younger girl called Chloe but her husband isn't vary happy and tries to warn her of being friends with her.
The house would be lovely apart from Tom haaving discovered a large swimming pool in the garden and has spent a lot of her dwindling money on doing it up. He knows she is terrified of water due to something in her past.
She soon regreta moving there. Someone is trying to scare her and begins to question if Chloe is a good friend to have after all.
Loved this book from start to finish. So many twists to it.

When dreams become nightmares! I could not put this book down - compelling and chilling. Twisty and terrifying. A perfect book to take on holiday.

This had everything that I was looking for from a psychological thriller and it had everything that I enjoyed about the genre. The characters had that tense feel and thought the overall feel was realistic. Sue Watson has a great writing style and enjoyed reading this.

📖📖 Book Review 📖📖 Like so many summers, this one starts with such hope and promise for Rachel and Tom. An inheritance from Rachel’s father provides a chance for a fresh start. After settling into a new house, renovated mansion in Cornwall, their dream home seems to have become a reality. The air is full of hope for the future of their family, a chance to leave the past behind them, yet Rachel has a sinking pit of unease in her stomach as they embark on this new journey. While many of us still so fresh from the isolation of lockdown, the author does a remarkable job creating a plot with a solid and all too realistic narrative. The walls of hope begin to break down when Rachel’s dream secret garden is secretly replaced with her greatest fear, making her question if this inheritance is making their life worse. Shockingly twisted and absolutely gripping, this You, Me, Her is a must-read that will leave you wondering who to trust and what is real!

Review is posted on Goodreads and the final review will be on instagram ahead of the publication date!

After receiving an inheritance, Rachel agrees to buy a dream house for her family to move into. Once she moves in she quickly makes a friend, Chloe, but is Chloe really who Rachel thinks she is?
This book has a fast pace and although I predicted the twist from about halfway through the book, I was stillnot 100% until the last page. I would highly recommend this book and give it 4.5 stars.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for the ARC

When Rachel agrees to use her inheritance to move her family into their dream home, she thinks life will improve. Unfortunately, when the house is finished and she starts to settle in, she finds that her new friend Chloe might be even friendlier with Rachel's husband. This book takes you down a twisted path that will grab your attention and hold it until the very end.

I absolutely loved this one! I did suspect the big twist once I hit the halfway point, but the way it was written made it an enthralling, can't-put-it-down read anyway. I disliked Rachel's husband the entire time, but the other characters were written in a way that keeps you guessing as far as who you should trust. The whole friendship between Rachel & Chloe was uncomfortable and cringey in a Single White Female way that worked really well as far as building a tense situation. I'm a huge fan of this author, but this is probably my favorite of hers! Highly recommended for anyone who like a good stalker story!

✨ Mystery Thriller
✨ Affair
✨ Trauma


✨ Oh my goodness. This book removes me from having a reading slump!
I thought the story at first chapters were predictable, as it was easy to know BUT…. I was wrong. It was never ending who’s who and what just happened?!
✨ For me personally, this book is not a standalone. It leave me with a cliffhanger and wanted more!! I want to know more what happen !!😆
✨ Definitely worth to read. If you like something twisted and surprising ending this book is for you.

The author's writing style just wasn't for me. I found it to be rather repetitive but I did like the cliff hangers at the end of every chapter. I feel like this could have been condensed to a very short story. I also felt like I knew where the story was going, it was rather predictable.

Thank you NetGalley and Bookouture for the early release of Sue Watson’s latest book. I enjoyed this popcorn thriller even though I did guess the twist but it had me wondering if I was correct or not until the very last page. This was a fast paced read that gave me some whiplash at times trying to keep up with who I could and couldn’t trust throughout the book.

This book follows Rachel a wife and mother who is dealing with some trauma from her past that is affecting her present day life. When her and her husband and son move after receiving an inheritance from her father she thinks it’s the fresh start they needed but boy was she mistaken. Some people in their new town seem to be paying too much attention to Rachel and her family. It almost seems as if she may have a stalker on her hands. Is it a stalker who wants her family and life or is it just her paranoia and anxious mind that hasn’t shaken from what she’s gone through in the past? Everyone will be a suspect in this story until the very end.

I found this book to be super fast paced and interesting. Right before the halfway point is when I really got sucked in and couldn’t put it down because I just had to know if my theory was right or not. This book comes out in June so make sure you add it to your TBR!

I knew this book would be good just by the title, but I did not expect it to be this good! Going off the title and blurb, you'd think things would be simple - husband, wife, and an in-between woman/mistress - and for the most part, that's what this book gave. Rachel, her husband, Tom, and a younger woman named Chloe. Chloe comes off as extremely obsessed and possessive, and we are led to believe that she is insane and has attachment issues. After catching her in multiple lies, Rachel is convinced Chloe wants her life - the husband, the big house, and even their son, Sam. After Chloe dies, Rachel decides to do some digging and uncovers the shocking truth.

Going into this book, I had high expectations. I love a good drama, especially when murder and lies are thrown in the mix. This book gave exactly that. However, it didn't really seem to get good until closer to the end, after Chloe dies. That is when all the secrets start to come out! Up until then, we see a lot of Chloe's obsessive ways and we are almost certain she is jealous of the life Rachel lives. The plot twists in this book are shocking, and the ending is jaw-dropping! I did not see it coming at all! It instantly took the book from a 3 to a 4.5 for me!

Thank you NetGalley, Bookouture, and Sue Watson for this suspenseful read!

I love Sue Watsons books and was so looking forward to getting stuck into this one. It moves at a slower pace than I’m used to with this author but maybe that was intentional. It does put a different kind of spin on a storyline that we have experienced before. It’s a well developed storyline with well developed characters but I can’t say if I actually liked any of them though and there were times I wanted to strangle Rachel 😳. When the pace picked up my head was in a spin and I was suspicious of everyone. But OMG that ending - come one Sue what a way to leave a girl hanging 🤷‍♀️😢…

"You, Me, Her" by Sue Watson promises an intriguing premise that keeps readers engaged from start to finish. Watson skillfully weaves a web of suspense and tension, with twists and turns that will leave you guessing until the very end. The characters are well-developed, and the psychological aspects of the story are compelling. However, some readers might find the pacing to be a bit uneven, and certain plot elements could have been explored in more depth. Overall, "You, Me, Her" delivers a gripping read that will satisfy fans of the psychological thriller genre

Twisty, twisty, twisty! This was a story I raced through! I just knew more was going on that it appeared, and I was RIGHT! I had guessed the final twist, but it was still a great ending! Loved the suspense!

"Someone is a liar. Someone is in danger. Someone is a killer."
You Me Her is a book I would recommend to fans of Frieda McFadden, Kierstin Modglin and Jeneva Rose. The hints of a wife's horrific relationship with water, Her relationships she develops after moving to a new city and the shocking twists kept me thoroughly entertained.
The ending was not a huge surprised as we were led to guess it, but the way it left off in a cliffhanger made me want more chapters. So much was unresolved at the end, but I loved the way it ended with the reader questioning the outcome.

An incredibly twisty thriller involving the secrets surrounding some marriages and friendships and the harm they can cause. Gripping from the very beginning, impossible to put down. A five star, must read.

4.5 stars for this one! (5 stars means I would read it again) I will say I would absolutely read from this author again.

She gipped me and had me paying attention the whole time. The suspense was great, although I feel like I was suspicious of who was in on it and even the surprise twist, I wasn't fully sure until I read it. The build was great and the unraveling at the end kept me on my toes.

Absolutely recommend this book!

Wow. I had to read the majority of the book in just one go — action and pacing really pick up right before the middle of the book. There is no conclusive ending, but I think readers can piece together what happens next. I enjoyed this book. But it was also scary. To read how someone can thoroughly ruin someone else’s life was overwhelming at times. This book lands firmly in the thriller category for me (not quite mystery).

It is a bit obvious who the terrible people are in this book (and there are many), but it was a good book nonetheless. I recommend reading it, especially when you have free time to read it in one sitting!

Thanks to Sue Watson, Bookouture, and NetGalley for the advanced copy!

My Rating: 3.75


One Marriage. Three People. One Murder.

You = Tom
Me = Rachel
Her = Chloe - Maybe?

In You Me Her, we are following the lives of the Frazer family; Rachel, her husband Tom, and their 4-year-old son Sam.

Rachel's dad died and left her with a large sum of money as an inheritance. Rachel and Sam are currently staying in her hometown, while Tom is spending the inheritance money to give Rachel the home of her dreams in another town. Tom is handling all the decisions that come along with fixing up a house: tile, paint color, garden, etc.

When Rachel and Sam move into the new house, Rachel is hoping to leave tragedy behind and finally be able to get on with her life. Rachel loves the new house, but she is very concerned about all the money being spent.

In walks Chloe, a younger, very pretty girl. She does not knock she just lets herself right in. Chloe is shocked to see that Rachel is there. Tom plays it off and says that Chloe works with the real estate agency and that's why she has keys to their house.

Quote: "But nothing is ever quite what it seems, and storm clouds can gather quickly."

Rachel befriends Chloe and they begin to spend lots of time together. Tom does not like this at all because he has told Rachel that Chloe is very dangerous and should not be trusted. Strange things start happening at the house. Sam sees things. Rachel sees things.

Is Tom being overdramatic?
Can Chloe be trusted?
Is Rachel going crazy?

You Me Her by Sue Watson has twists and turns aplenty. I trusted no one. There are several characters that play a role in this story. All of them - sketchy! You will not know who to believe. Sue does a good job with that. There's just something not quite right with each one of them, you just cannot put your finger on it.

Secrets
Fear
Lies
Friendship
Betrayal

I try not to go too in depth with thriller reviews, because I think they are better gone into blind. I did enjoy You Me Her. I thought I had it figured out, but I did not. If you like domestic trillers, I would recommend putting this one on your list.

Thank you Bookouture and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review You Me Her.
