Deliciously creepy! Down on her luck, single mom Frey’s lucks into a new apartment at the fraction of the going rate. Once she moves in, weird things start happening around her and she is wondering if her benefactor could be more sinister.
Never saw the ending coming!

I flew through this one! A lighter thriller that somehow manages to remain creepy and atmospheric, this story was a little formulaic but I enjoyed it nonetheless. If you’re happy with a story that’s enjoyable without being groundbreaking (like a lot of psych thrillers these days...), then you’ll be pleased with this book. I would recommend this to fans of Ruth Ware, Riley Sager, and J.P Delaney.

I didn’t finish this book. I read 5 chapters and just couldn’t get interested in the story.. it was very slow and nothing really happened except a few conversations. Those 5 chapters could have been left out entirely and rewritten for maybe 1 chapter.

What's the saying, if something appears too good to be true, it probably is...that's that this book is about. This is the first book I've read by K.L. Slater and I enjoyed it. At times it did seem to drag, and the ending wasn't what I expected and I'm not sure I felt closure. Freya has become a widow and is looking for somewhere for herself and her daughter to live. She is given the chance to live at Adder house, and it appears to be a miracle. But she learns that things are not always as they seem and when things start to get very strange she questions her decision. It was interesting and was a light read. Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This fast-paced thriller has some strong vibes of Riley Sager's Lock Every Door. I really enjoyed how quickly, though, the protagonist realized she was being f*ed with and rectified the issue. The whole book takes place within the span of basically a week, and although it has flashbacks to another time, I appreciated how succinctly the author wrapped up the plot. The characters were a bit one-dimensional with their motivations, but enough creepy vibes to keep you interested. Overall 3 1/2 stars.

The Apartment was a psychological thriller that did indeed keep you on the edge of your seat. I did enjoy that the plot was much different from other books in this genre. It follows the story of a woman and daughter who are in desperate need of a new apartment. They think they found a perfect match, and that's where the story truly takes off. I wish the characters had been developed a bit more, but overall- it was a great story.

This book took me by surprise. It kept me interested throughout the story and I needed to see what was going to happen. I truly enjoyed the pacing of the story and the well written characters. I would recommend this story to all suspense lovers.

Reading The Apartment was an immersive read. The choices that the main character, Freya, makes are sometimes questionnable, although this is necessary to the development of the story. Easy and pleasant read, even though there are some loose strings at the end.
Thank you Amazon publisher UK, to the author and to NetGalley for the ARC!

The Adder House....where it's stranger than you think. Freyer and her daughter are looking for an apartment after her husband dies. And a stroke of luck comes with Dr. Marsden when he is looking for a tenant. The House is huge, beautiful and probably cost a fortune...but...the doctors rents it to her for a song. Along with many other things he does for her. Could this be too good to be true?

Thank you #Netgalley for giving me this ARC to read. Slater is an author I didnt know about but I do love a new author here and there. This book did not disappoint me since I read it in 3 days and couldnt wait to find out all about the strange things that happen in Adder House. It was both a sweet story and a strange one, but alas we find out the truth. #fourstars #KindleUnlimited

I really enjoyed this book. I thought it was very well written and the main character really drew me in and I really cared what happened. Great twist at the end! Would definitely recommend.
My thanks to NetGalley for my free copy in exchange for my review.

When Freya Miller and her daughter Skye are presented with an opportunity to live in a beautiful apartment at Adder House at a shockingly low rent, she cannot believe her luck. With her life in a disarray after her husband's death, this sounds like a miracle, the very thing she needed to turn her life over. Little did she know that the price she will be paying might be her sanity and her freedom. As she attempts to unravel the mysteries of her new abode, Freya is forced to face the dark secrets of the Adder House residents to protect her 5 year old daughter.

The Apartment by K.L. Slater is an gripping and creepy read with good twists and turns. I enjoyed the mystery built up owing to the alternate narration through the eyes of stalker, which gave me some chills. The ending, though not very unpredictable, did take me by surprise on some aspects. The characters of the story lent the mysterious air to the plot, with their outwardly friendly but "cannot place a finger on it" odd behavior.

I did not enjoy it as much as previous K.L. Slater books as this one did not come across as very believable. I found Freya too trusting of everyone, right from when she moves into the beautiful, new apartment being offered in a gorgeous location in less than a week, to when she spills her secrets to one of the residents after knowing her only for a while even after being warned about the past incidents in that place. Also, I did not find the "seemingly" paranormal occurrences at her house very appealing, as it made it somewhat predictable.

K.L. Slater has a way with words, a way of turning them into a gripping story that will undoubtedly leave you mouth open and mind blown. This book is the true definition of “Psychological Thriller” and thrill it does. The characters, the mystery, and the pulse pounding tension of “The Apartment” are unmatched! Can I give this book 6 stars? It is well deserved!

I was drawn to the name of this book. It reminded me of a topic with so much potential and the possibility of promise. Kim Slaters The Apartment lived up to both. This was my first book by this author, it will not be the last. This book is suspenseful with enough twists to keep the reader's interest. I was still trying to pin the responsible party after 85-90% of the book was finished. This is a rarity for me. I found myself becoming involved in the emotions of Freya and since I knew her to be fragile mentally I even began to question what was happening.
I empathized with her plight being betrayed by her husband and finding herself adrift with a young daughter. I do wish she had been portrayed as a stronger role model for her daughter. Who among us has not been tempted when placed in a position where something seems just too good to be true. In Freya’s position, I would have probably taken a chance on the more luxurious and prestigious “Apartment” just as she did.
I would rate this book a 4 out of 5 stars. I would have liked to see a little more development of the characters and frankly, I just wanted more. Thank you, Net Galley and MS. Slater for allowing me to preview this advance copy. I will be reading more of this author's work.

The Apartment by K L Slater is a sometimes creepy, suspenseful story of a mother and young daughter who are trying to make a fresh start. They are "randomly" invited to stay in an apartment at the Adder House, where strange things start happening. Who is causing these things to happen? There is a secondary story line being told as well, and it isn't incorporated until the end. The ending wraps everything up, but it is rather rushed, so the reader is left rather confused. This was a fun read, but I'm not sure that I would recommend it. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC. All opinions are my own.

Another stunning thriller from KL Slater. Atmospheric and tense, I felt myself walking in the MCs shoes. Recommended!

**Many thanks to NetGalley, Amazon Publishing UK and K.L. Slater for this ARC!!**
This was another enjoyable quick read from K.L. Slater! Freya and her daughter Skye are given an enticing offer by a mysterious stranger to move into a beautiful apartment for a remarkably low price,, but did they actually get a bargain...or more than they bargained for? As always, Slater’s characters feel really real and I loved her adorable daughter Skye! The Adder House gave the whole book a creepy Victorian house of horrors feel, and Freya has to quickly discover the secrets it holds before it’s too late! This is a fun-to-read mystery that I could easily see having a prequel. Looking forward to my next read from K.L. Slater!

I started this book and did not put it down until I finished it. It was an interesting premise and it hooked me from the beginning. I give this a solid four stars for gripping me from the beginning and keeping me interested until the final resolution.

It was a little interesting the first 5 chapters. After that it just became boring. Then the end felt rushed.

This book would get more than 5 stars if that was an option. I was on the edge of my seat toward the end of it and my heart rate was up. I rarely get that invested in the books I read, but I couldn't put it down. You fall in love with the characters and really feel their pain and feel pride for them. I highly recommend this suspense book!

⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 ⠀

Thank you @netgalley for my gifted copy of this novel. 👏🏼
Freya wants a fresh start. After her horrific year of her husband passing and everything else her and her daughter Skye have been through, all she wants is a chance to start anew. Cue Dr. Marsden, a man who happens to have the dream apartment in Kensington, the perfect neighborhood in the building he owns, Adder House. Everything just seems too good to be true, but for once Freya wants to enjoy this luxury that has happened upon her by chance and immediately moves in. As Freya and her daughter become more settled, discoveries are made about their scarce neighbors in Adder House and strange things start happening in the apartment, such as toys being moved, things going missing, and weird noises coming from next door. At the same time, someone has been following them and keeping a journal regarding a certain experiment...I really enjoyed the concept of this novel and the psychology behind it, however I wish the characters and the backstory of the Marsdens was more developed as when things escalated, I didn’t feel invested enough in the characters to really be surprised. To sum it up: thriller, spooky haunting parts, probably wouldn’t recommend to a friend, not too “thrilling”, deception and family, cute mommy/daughter relationship
