Reseñas de la Crítica

"Building on the success of tense mysteries like Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl (2012), author Bonnie Traymore has crafted a deliciously unsettling domestic thriller with her new novel The Stepfamily." - BookTrib

The StepFamily

The story is edge of your seat. And the beginning has you wondering if it’s just coincidence. Of course we know it’s not! I was a little let down with how easy the ending played out, but am definitely looking forward to the next book! Over all a good listen and the narration is spot on. She really nailed the characters.

Readers voice

Could not get through the book because of the readers voice. Definitely not a good fit for this story.

Fun and Keeps you Guessing

Narration was great and I enjoyed all of the twists throughout the story. Its a mystery but it felt more like a light read. If you’re tired of your typical beach reads and need something a little more meaty this does the trick.

Interesting plot.

This narrarator must know some powerful people to get this job. If someone was running a contest for the worst narrarator ever, she would surely win first place. I was embarrassed for her.

Great Book

I enjoyed this psychological thriller audiobook delivered brilliantly by the talents of narrator, Meghan Kelly. The storyline was suspenseful and entertaining.
