Publisher's summary

When the girl who bullied you grows up to be your "best" friend...

Helen’s writing is her biggest ally. No matter what she’s been through over the years, her journal has offered a safe space to let it all out. From her awful schooldays when she was bullied and alone, to the blood, sweat, and tears she’s overheard or witnessed from the house next door. At least, no matter how isolated and bored Helen is, she isn’t caught up in all that.

Until she is.

I kept saying "Don't trust her!"

When I finished the first book in this series I couldn't figure out where else the story could go. I loved that this one picks up on what is a minor character in Book 1 and tells her story. Very well written and the performances are great.

Painful friendship

Beautiful narration of the different accents! This one’s a cliff hanger and I hope justice is served in the sequel.

How Lonely some people can be?

I dislike the ending.
Wanted there to be more. Wanted there to be a better ending And for the murder to get caught.

I just can’t…

This is the first book I’ve ever listened to where I was enraged the majority of the time. Helen was written to be the worst kind of pathetic, the kind where her situation could be improved if she actually tried in the slightest, but it’s clearly easier to moan all the time about how she has no friends, no one loves her, no one would miss her but her dog. She ALLOWS herself to be manipulated into every situation. She willingly becomes friends with her high school bully. She chooses not to go to the cops after being coerced into hiding a dead body. Because it’s just too hard to do otherwise… She spies on all the neighbors, and wonders why no one wants to invite her in for tea. She awkwardly demands Lou’s house key, then uses it to invite herself in whenever the family isn’t home, lamenting about how their place is so much nicer. Well, no shit. Run a friggen vacuum or dust once in a while, your house has to be positively disgusting since it’s being used as a doggy daycare/boarding facility, and I can guarantee it wouldn’t pass an inspection. When Helen finally died, I actually was thankful, because I wouldn’t have to hear her depressing inner monologue anymore. But guess what: her diary entries continue to be read, and we don’t get to escape her like we had hoped. Every character seems to be written as the worst possibly stereotype, and the narrator… to be polite, she didn’t do it for me. I’m sorry, but 3 stars is being generous here.
