It's all about perspective!
"The Housemaid" delves into the complexity of human perception and how our own experiences, coupled with gossip, really shape our supposed understanding of others. It's interesting how the narrative focuses on one perspective, emphasizing the fragility of the human condition. The themes of abuse and mental health add a layer of depth that makes it both compelling and thought-provoking. The ability to keep the reader second-guessing the ending speaks to McFadden's skill in crafting suspense.
This book is a must-read if you enjoy an easy (literary-wise) page-turner with some deep psychological undertones.
