Gallery/Scout Press The Turn of the Key

Love book of Ruth Ware. Creepy 😱didn’t get exactly the ending, but it doesn’t matter 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thriller psicológico muy entretenido! en un ambiente inmersivo en donde la casa y los parajes son también protagonistas. Lo recomiendo, ya que los capítulos son cortos y se lee en un suspiro. No es de terror, pero sí hay tensión y clímax a medida que se acerca la conclusión.

Uno de mis libros favoritos

This book kept my interest from cover to cover. I finished it this morning and the ending was a surprise. The story is about Rowan, who applies for a job as a nanny in an isolated home in Scotland. The story is written as a letter to a lawyer because Rowan is in prison for murder. Rowan seemed to care about children (for the most part) but I didn't care for the characters Sandra and Bill. Bill showed what he was right away by making a pass at Rowan when he first met her, but Sandra seemed OK but a little careless. Sandra gave Rowan a thick binder with minute instructions as to what the little girls should eat, and when, what they should wear, the games they should play, etc, but apparently saw nothing wrong or dangerous about them running around outside on the property which was huge, and playing around a "poison garden", and around pools filled with muddy water. And Sandra saw nothing wrong with leaving her girls, 5 and 8, with Rowan, whom they just met the day before. There was enough suspense the make the story interesting, and the story moved right along to the end. I like books with a good story line that doesn't get bogged down by a lot of "padding" and this book has none of that. It's right to the point, although it's supposed to be a letter. I overlooked that point and just enjoyed the suspense.

Ich habe dieses Buch gerade eben ausgelesen und muss sagen, dass ich sehr begeistert bin. Die Story war sehr gut erzählt und das Ende hat mich sehr überrascht. Ich war die ganze Zeit über gespannt, was als nächstes passiert und wie genau sich die Geschichte abgespielt hat. Meiner Meinung nach ein sehr gutes Buch von Ruth Ware und wird sicher nicht mein letztes sein!
