Book Review // The Woman in the Window

Review: DNF (did not finish)

Synopsis:

"Anna Fox lives alone—a recluse in her New York City home, unable to venture outside. She spends her day drinking wine (maybe too much), watching old movies, recalling happier times . . . and spying on her neighbors.

Then the Russells move into the house across the way: a father, mother, their teenaged son. The perfect family. But when Anna, gazing out her window one night, sees something she shouldn’t, her world begins to crumble and its shocking secrets are laid bare.

What is real? What is imagined? Who is in danger? Who is in control? In this diabolically gripping thriller, no one—and nothing—is what it seems." Amazon.com

Review:

I knew almost immediately that The Woman in the Window was going to be a struuuuuggle. And after 50 pages, I called it quits. The writing style was not my thing and the constant references to old movies got old really fast. 

One of you asked me if I needed a summary in order to get closure and guess what I learned? I guessed more than half the plot. So I’m 100% happy I put it down. Onward and upward. 

If you’re a movie buff and can handle a lot crazy, then this is the book for you!
