Just Like the Other Girls

A Novel

“A chilling novel showcasing Claire Douglas's trademark brilliantly claustrophobic settings and tightly plotted twists. Impossible to know which of the well-drawn characters to trust and very hard to put down.”—Gilly MacMillan, bestselling author of What She Knew

Soooo Good!

Enjoyed! At first I was a little bored… but it didn’t take long to take off. Then kept going with mystery.
Rich older woman hires a companion in a grand house. Once the young companion settles in … she begins questioning peculiar coincidences that are so unsettling she begins to snoop on her own.

Good twists

I enjoyed this mystery. There are some good twists. Just an easy to listen to mystery that surprised me at the end.

Good story and narration

Enjoyed the story - kept me guessing and when it hit PART 2 I was so surprised - realized I was in for a big twist. Narration very good as well

Loved every minute!

I was hooked by the second chapter. Loved the story, the narrator, everything. Never read this author before, but I will for sure be reading her again. I thought I had it figured out so many times, just to be proved wrong over and over. Highly recommend!

Another 5 star book by CD !!

I read my first Claire Douglas book a few weeks ago, and have read one after another since then! The titles often sound similar, but the stories and plot twists are different, and all have been 5 star books, made even better by the narration . So far, I highly recommend ALL of them!!

A bit wordy, but very good!

I just have to point out the funny audio change edits. kind of jarring. But wow! The twist and how it came together was great.

Worth a Credit

Firstly, I have never read anything by this author. I kind of stumbled upon this book while searching for something in the mystery genre to listen to.
This was really good! I thought I had it all figured out about halfway through the book ( I thought I was so clever) and boy was I wrong. Five stars!

Excellent performance, great story line

Truly enjoyed this. Although the ending gets a little messy in my opinion. While most questions were answered in the end, I felt like I was still clinging to certain questions and couldn’t focus on the questions being answered currently but that is probably a me problem- not the authors! Great story line. Definitely kept me intrigued. 100% recommend

So many twists and turns!

This book kept me spellbound. I could not stop listening. I ignored my poor husband for hour after hour listening to this book. It was so good! wonderful character development and so many twists and turns. I almost got car sick.

Well written

I love the book when I think I am so clever and guessed everything and then the author proves me wrong. Claire Douglas is a very good writer and Georgia Maguire is one of the best narrators. Definitively worth a credit.
