The Baby Group

By: Jade Lee Wright

Narrated by: Tamaryn Payne

A BRAND NEW totally addictive psychological thriller with one of the most astonishing twists you’ll listen to this year.

‘My baby’s been taken,’ I sob into the phone. Blood is everywhere.

My fiancé, Alex, is slumped beside the birthing pool, his head gashed open. The baby? Gone.

I cradle my empty stomach, my empty arms. And then Alex looks at me — not with love, but with blame.

This wasn’t how it was supposed to go. The move. The fresh start. The antenatal classes. The new friends. But nothing about this feels right.

And as the sirens wail closer, I realize something terrible — someone planned this. Someone in our new life wanted our baby.

And I think they’re in the baby group.

This addictive thriller full of twists is perfect for fans of Alice Feeney, Sue Watson, Jane E. James, Shalini Boland, Sonya Bateman and Valerie Keogh.

Interesting - main character is not likable

So I probably have this 4 stars mainly because how much the main character annoyed me. Which probably is any fair because while I didn’t like her the character the author was going for was thoroughly in sync with what she was likely going for. She was just soooo insecure but also lacked such confidence she just couldn’t see the obvious red flags. She also let her finance all all over her like a doormat. He was not nice to her ever. But obviously this was needed for the story…..I did think about quitting listening but I did really want to know what happened. It go better as time went on. I really liked the last 1/3 of the book. I found myself sad when it ended that it was done. So overall def worth a listen but just know the main character might frustrate you too.

Just the “friendship” with pregnant moms and the relationships

There was not any single thing I can point out as something I didn’t like

Suspenseful!!

I loved this book. The story line was somewhat original. I was surprised. Held my attention throughout.

Wow! What a fantastically twisted story!!

This story grabs you at the beginning and keeps a stranglehold on your spine throughout!! Extremely tingling scare. A mother’s worst nightmare keeps you on the edge of her seat through to the end!

Great book!

I really loved this book. I liked the characters and the story and they kept my interest from start to finish. My only complaint is that too many spoilers were revealed in the book blurb. Fortunately, there were enough surprises and twists so that that was not a big problem.
