Oh My Goodness, I absolutely loved this book! It's written in the usual two timeline style but rather than past and present, it's present and future.

This is such a simple switch in perspective but makes this an extraordinary read, as rather than knowing what has happened and finding out why, you find out what the secrets are and wonder who has acted on them.

A fabulous read (listen for me) which is definitely one to share.

Wow. This was one heck of a ride. Nothing is what it seems in this neighborhood. You just never know what is going on Nextdoor. Great storyline with plenty to keep you interested. A lot of characters, so it can be hard to follow at times but it fits in. Great narrators

Man this really is a you never know what your neighbors are up to book for sure. It weaves multiple families and past and present and does it in a way that is seamless. A book that keeps you guessing all the way through out and then the ending definitely gives you some closure. The cast of characters seemed very likable and written in a way you can understand their motivations. Very quick read that keeps you reaching for the next page.

So many characters and so much drama’! Heidi and Freddie move to a new neighborhood but there is some sort of connection between some of these people. Heidi can’t figure out what is going on with her husband. Meanwhile, willow also cannot figure out what is going on with her husband. Everyone has secrets. Dylan can’t let go of his wife dying, but it is that connected to any of the other people? There is def a lot here and I’m not sure I caught all that was going on, but I did enjoy it!

Pretty good book but still some sort of unanswered questions about kiras murder but other than that the twists were for sure twisting I enjoyed it

Unfortunately, this author favors ‘telling’ over ‘showing’ and so it made for quite a dull read. Literally nothing—not a single thing—happened until about 46% in. Sadly, not much else happened, this is just hours and hours of he-said-she-said gossip and speculation and inner ramblings.

Extremely dull.


🎧 Audio:
The audio is decent—the narrator has a smooth enough voice, though she does opt to robotically dictate, rather than perform the book. Overall sound quality is perfect.

4.5 rounded up. Wilkinson nails the gossipy, tension-packed vibe you go to a domestic thriller for in this tale about a neighborhood full of drama!

Premise - Huntington Grove seems like a nice neighborhood, but everyone is hiding something. Heidi is snooping because she doesn’t trust her husband, Freddie, who has taken to locking the door of his home office. Willow’s marriage is falling apart and her relationship with her teenage daughter isn’t far behind. Dylan might have murdered his wife. And someone at the summer block party has a gun…

Wilkinson has such an addictive voice! I could not tear myself away from this one. The characters were complex and the mysteries built upon each other, tension ticking up-up-up until the explosion at the block party to end all block parties. So! Good!

I listened to the audiobook, narrated by
Matthew Spencer, Rebecca Lee, and Julia Barrie. They are all so talented and did a great job! It was a highly engaging read and I definitely recommend enjoying the story in this format.

Thanks, NetGalley and Bookouture Audio, for the audio ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Really tried to get into this one as I have enjoyed her books before. Tried a few times. Thank you for the opportunity
