This was a strong psychological thriller novel, it had that element that I was looking for and enjoyed from this type of book. I thought Danielle Stewart wrote this perfectly and that the characters were everything that I was looking for. It was tense and worked with the genre overall, I was on the edge of my seat and glad I got to read this.

I was definitely intrigued by the concept of this story, and the story ended up being pretty impactful, with a lot of great themes like anxiety and family secrets.

I will say, I guessed the first big twist pretty early on 😅 Like, I felt like I could see what was happening right away, so I wouldn’t say it was super shocking. But I did still enjoy how everything came together in the end.

Also, side note, there is this big mystery around something the FMC did in the past, but once it came out it was actually a bit of a letdown 😭 Like, I thought it was perfectly understandable what happened. Maybe it’s just me, but I think I expected something much more intense and impactful.

Still, I do feel the story was pretty well written and it was entertaining enough that I did read it in one day. I think I was just hoping for a bit more.

Jo has a perfect life with her husband Everett and their kids, Megan and Ashton. Everett travels a lot for work, Megan is a teenager starting to test boundaries, and Ashton has life-threatening allergies. So, things are a bit tough on a daily basis, but Jo makes it work. Her family is everything to her. One day, she agrees to host an exchange student. Eden is 17, and her presence quickly changes things. There’s just something unsettling about her, and one day, she disappears. That’s when Jo’s perfect life starts to crumble.

The thing I love most about domestic thrillers is how they shatter the illusion of the perfect family every time. Husbands in these books are often the worst, aren’t they? Without giving too much away, this is done perfectly here. Jo loves her family and is ready to expand and redefine what she sees as family. She’s far from perfect, but she’s actually a good person. I was very suspicious of Eden (and of Everett, because I’m always suspicious of the husband), but I still didn’t see the twist coming. It worked out pretty well.

Good book, I liked reading it! It kept me interested throughout all the chapters but I also couldn't wait to find out what happened. Definitely recommended for anyone who like a bit of mystery!

When the idea of hosting a foreign exchange student is given to Jo, a stay-at-home mother, she thinks it may help repair the bond with her tween daughter. Little does she realize accepting this girl into her home will destroy her family in ways she couldn't have ever imagined.

I feel some thrillers try too hard with the twists and turns but this book is the exception to the rule! It keeps you hooked from start to end and leaves you begging for more. I loved EVERYTHING about this book!

Thank you to #NetGalley and #Bookouture for this ARC of #ThreeLittleLies by Danielle Stewart. SET A REMINDER IN YOUR CALENDER BECAUSE THIS HITS SHELVES MARCH 13TH AND YOU'RE NOT GOING TO WANT TO MISS IT!!

Wow, wow, wow! This book definitely was captivating right from the start. The twists, turns, lies and deception had me on the edge of my seat. The way the author portrayed Jo was so descriptive that her anxiety I could actually feel throughout the story. I absolutely loved this book and could not put it down. The second half of the story and the different perspectives had my jaw dropping and I couldn’t believe what was happening. The ending was absolutely perfect and I am rooting for this family. I give this book 5 out of 5 stars and I will definitely be reading anything and everything by this author. This book is a must read! Thank you netgalley and publisher for the advanced read.

This book was a bit slow to start off but wow did it pick up pace and I couldn’t put it down. Just kept me on the edge of my seat throughout. what a twist towards the end which I didn’t expect but the ending itself was lovely. I really would like to read more of Danielle Stewart books now thoroughly enjoyed this one.
Thanks to the author, net galley and the publishers for lowing me to read this

This is another one that gave me Frieda McFadden vibes! It's twisty and turny and I couldn't put it down! When I hit that first twist my jaw was on the floor and I finished reading the book in that sitting.

How far would you go to keep your perfect family from imploding?

Now I’m beginning to get used to the world of book socials, I thought I’d have a nosey at @Netgalley and see what it’s about. I love it! found it really quick and easy to set up and I’m glad I did. A massive thank you to @bookouture too; I requested to read this book and was approved for my first ever ARC🫶🏽.

I decided from the moment I read the blurb that this would be my kind of book; lots of twists and drama promised. A scorned wife and a killer husband. It was easy to devour this fast paced thriller. There was a second where I thought Jo might be a bit whiney, but I was rooting for her before I even got to the end. She was made to be a mother and it’s so clear throughout with how fierce her character is regarding her kids. The twists worked their magic. As soon as I hit the first one I was determined to finish and find out how it ended. I thought I feel like ending is perfect too and that I got enough closure for the story. Made me interested to look at Danielle Stewart’s other books.

Jo has the perfect life. A nice house in the suburbs, a loving husband, and two beautiful children. That’s all on the surface though. Her relationship with her preteen daughter is on thin ice, her husband always traveling and never around, and her son has life threatening allergies that could kill him any moment. When the opportunity to host an exchange student from England, Eden, falls into her lap, Jo jumps at the opportunity to restore some normalcy to her live. But when Eden goes missing and the police set their sights on Jo and her husband, her “perfect” life begins to crumble.

“Three Little Lies” picks up quickly and never slows down. A fun missing person mystery where readers will be shocked by the twist near the end. Well executed suspense and a well paced plot gives this novel 3/5 stars.

Wow! I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I got into right from the start and love that it has short chapters that keep you wanting to read chapter after chapter. I figured I knew how this one would go with the family and what the wife's secret was, boy was I wrong. Highly recommend.

This thriller was a WILD ride from start to finish, with a slow build in the beginning and some astonishing twists in the end. I thought I had it all figured out and was definitely shocked by the twist (LOVE when that happens)!

On top of an already strained marriage between an anxious, overprotective mother and a father with his own secrets—the family chooses to welcome into their home a foreign exchange student. Will this be the decision that brings them together….or will it lead to some irreparable changes? What would you do for your family, for your children? How well do you really know those around you?

I really liked this book! It was a great thriller and made me feel tense and anxious while reading. It was entertaining and interesting and it did have me hooked! i wanted to keep reading on until the end to see what was going to happen!!

Thank you to NetGalley, to the author, and to the publisher for this complimentary ARC in exchange for my honest review!!!

Eden lands on Jo’s doorstep on a school exchange - no one could predict what was about to happen. There are surprises throughout the book that certainly kept me guessing. Is love enough to keep this family together or what will the family unit look like at the end. So many secrets. A really good read

This is a great book. It definitely kept me turning the pages. I can always say I know a character is well written when I dislike them from the start. Jo is an overbearing, over protective mom with an absent husband and two wonderful kids. Throw an exchange student in the mix with a mysterious past, someone goes missing, husband gets locked up and that’s not even where it gets good! Read this. It’s great.

I felt this book really kept you on the edge of your seat. There is a shocking twist at the end of the story but it doesn’t feel like it drags on. I feel like this is a fast paced book with a good ending.

Three Little Lies by Danielle Stewart is an absolute page-turner that kept me hooked from start to finish! With its gripping twists and unexpected turns, this thriller masterfully weaves suspense and emotion, making it nearly impossible to put down.

If you’re a fan of psychological thrillers packed with surprises and layered storytelling, this book is an absolute must-read. Be prepared for a thrilling ride that will leave you thinking about it long after you’ve turned the final page!

- ARC Review -

Thank you to the author Danielle Stewart and publisher Bookouture for providing me with a free ARC copy of this book in return for my honest review.

It’s been a while since I have read a psychological thriller, and I forgot how truly gripping they can be! 👏🏼

Whilst this book started off a bit slower than most, by about 30% of the way in, the pace picked up exponentially!

I go into psychological thrillers with bad vibes about EVERYONE, and this book is no different, but I think that is what the author wanted!

Jo, a stay at home mum, and Everett, a Chief Technical Officer for a tech company, are happily married, rich and successful, so of course not everything is as it seems 👀

Helicopter mum Jo is frantic about her son’s allergies, and also desperately trying to hold onto the remnants of her mother daughter relationship with pre-teen Megan.

When given the opportunity to host an exchange student with severe allergies, under the illusion it could help heal her relationship with Megan, Jo jumps at the chance and doesn’t give Everett a choice in the matter.

Enter Eden, stage right. Eden has come from a small seaside town in England, desperate to absorb herself in American life and also learn more about the tech business from Everett.

On a romantic date night, that is supposed to be to fix some issues within their relationship, they receive a call from Megan, begging them to come home immediately, and so the turmoil begins!

This book is filled with twists and turns, and whilst I did anticipate the first big plot twist, I did not see the rest of them coming! It had me hooked right until the very end! At least I know that some of my bad vibes were warranted 😂

If you’re looking for a book to absolutely binge in one sitting, this would be one I wholly recommend!

The book is a slow burn in the beginning but once the story kicks off it results in a very good psychological thriller. It is funny how you can think that you are living the perfect life, but dreams can be shattered, and this book portrays how far one woman will go to try to protect her husband and keep their idyllic life together. The title of ‘Three Little Lies’ really sums up this story, how lies can in the end destroy us all and ruin our very existence. Will definitely look out for more books from this author.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an advanced copy of the book, all opinions expressed are my own

This book was SO. GOOD. Sadly I have high expectations for thrillers, but this one did not disappoint. I wasn’t even halfway through the book and my jaw was ON. THE. FLOOR!!!! Everything unraveled at the perfect pace through the entire book & I was never bored. This book has twist after twist after twist!!! 5 star read, highly recommend!!
