Absolutely one of my favorite authors!! As soon as I received this ARC I started it and finished it in one day. A great story with a creepy, gothic feel as Freya can't believe her luck when she is offered an apartment in Adder House, a very expensive and exclusive home in London but once she and her young daughter move in they are starting to feel anything but lucky. A very fast-paced and suspenseful read. I highly recommend!

I usually love this author and was excited to see a new one from her.
Was a little unbelievable to me. Didn't draw me in and devour it. Was just an ok read with a ok ending.
3.5 rounded up.

Thanks to Net Galley and the publisher for an early release of this book.

I have read several books by K.L.Slater and they’ve all been good thrillers that are really easy to read - but I think this is the best one yet! When Freya and her daughter Skye move into an apartment that is beyond their means at the behest of a wealthy doctor, odd things seem to start happening ... This book created a real sense of dread and unease - I found myself wanted to read more and more just to solve the mystery of what was going on! My only complaint is that the book was too short - I felt there was scope for more creepy goings on!

I love the writing of Kim Slater and enjoy the consistently high standard of writing. Her books are punchy and instantly grip you normally in my experience are read in one or two sittings. Well yet again that was the case with this one and was instantly pulled in by the creepy psychological thriller that had so many excellent characters and I am sure this will prove to be another best selling novel.

Freya Miller is a single mother who on losing her husband very soon lost her home leaving her and her 5 year old daughter Skye potentially homeless. A strange off chance meeting with a Dr. Marsden gives her fresh hope. He offers Freya an unbelievable opportunity to move into an exclusive house in London at a price she can afford. Very soon Freya and Skye have moved in to the apartment in Adder House and are made to feel very welcome by the other residents.

Is this too good to be true? Freya starts to experience some strange happenings, leaving her feeling uneasy. Freya begins to think that there are some hidden secrets that may affect both her and Skye. for both Adder House and its residence are not as they appear.

I loved this book and thought the characters were excellent. A creepy psychological thriller that keeps you guessing, works for me.
I would like to thank both Net Galley and Amazon Publishing for supplying a copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review.

So different but so good. The characters were amazing and well developed. Brilliant storyline and kept me entertained.

Well written, great characters and a spooky thriller what more could you ask for? Well I’d like a interesting believable plot please.
The Apartment is pretty great, it’s enjoyable and gripping and all the things I like about reading but it’s just lacking. The plot is like one of those crazy dreams you have where you wake up and think “what’s wrong with my head” but it just didn’t work.
I’m a huge K. L. Slater fan but this let me down a little.

This is by far one of the creepiest books I have ever read. I love K.L Slater and have read and loved everything she has ever written. This book though is in a league of its own. I absolutely raced through it in one night, staying up ridiculously late to finish. Thank goodness it’s the weekend 🙃.

The book follows Freya who is struggling and at a sudden crossroads in her life following the death of her husband Lewis. She has to sell her family home and find somewhere to live with her young daughter and she has to do it fast. A chance meeting with Dr Marsden in a coffee shop offers Freya and Skye the chance of a lifetime. The opportunity to rent an apartment in the prestigious Adder House, owned by the Doctor, at a reasonable rate seems far too good to be true. What happens after Freya and Skye move in? You’ll have to read for yourself. All I can say is be prepared for one hell of a crazy ride. Amazing and dark. I highly recommend this book.

Thank you NetGalley for this advanced copy. I love K.L. Slater. She is my favorite thriller author. The suspense was good, although parts were predictable to me. This seems to be a new plot that a lot of authors are using...someone moves in or housesits, someone is out to get them etc. But I still enjoyed the book and powered through it.

K.L. Slater is the reason I started reading thrillers. This was a good book, but I do feel parts were predictable and it wasn't as good as her previous book. I feel like this is a new plot used by authors and starting to be used too much. however, the book itself was good. the suspense was good, kept me guessing etc.

Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to preview THE APARTMENT BY KL SLATER. Ms. Slater just does not disappoint in her latest thriller. I find she writes for women facing struggles and hardship and finds a way to give the reader some heart palpitations at the same time.
A young woman and her child face homelessness after a failed marriage and she finds an apartment with an offer she can't refuse. Soon things start to get strange - the feeling of being watched and overall spookiness. What is going on and is this a place where she will live or die!
Very good book - recommend - 4 stars.

Wow! Absolutely loved this book! I'm a huge fan of K. L. Slater's books and this one was just as great as all her other books. Just as she is about to lose her family home, Freya is shocked but delighted when a seemingly random encounter with a man leads to Freya and her daughter Skye being offered the chance to rent a stunning apartment at a low cost. Is it really too good to be true? It soon becomes apparent that there is something strange going on and that the house is hiding secrets. Will Freya discover what is going on before something awful happens to them? A fantastic story with a brilliant twist, I also really loved the ending. Totally recommend this book!

I received a copy of this book from NetGalley.

I read this book really fast. The whole story was great, the climax was good, but the ending kind of fizzled out for me. All in all, great book. 3.5 stars out of 5.

The Apartment by K.L. Slater follows Freye and her daughter Skye. They are recently without a home, so when a too-goo-to-be-true apartment becomes available, Freya jumps on it. Adder House is beautiful, and seems welcoming with its quiet tenants. Freya can't shake the feeling that this house is too perfect, as she hears strange noises and knocks. She lets it go, until she gets a sinister warning from the previous tenant's sister. Get out, or something will happen to her. Freya is at a crossroads, but before she can make her decision, the truth comes out.

This book was very entertaining, and I very much enjoyed how it incorporated classic psychology studies. I felt the ending was a bit rushed, and more buildup could add to the tension and suspense. Overall, well written and gripping plot.

Thanks to NetGalley for the chance to read and review!

3.5 stars. Something was missing for me.

I was slightly disappointed by this read which drew me in with the stunning cover. I'd heard of KL Slater before and I know she's quite popular, so I was excited to give The Apartment a go.

Unfortunately I had a few problems with this book. I didn't find any of the characters likeable (not even Skye - oops) and I struggled with the plot working out so neatly. However, it was very atmospheric and I enjoyed the setting very much.

Would I recommend? Maybe, if you're not a very demanding fan of thrillers. But I prefer authors like Shari Lapena and even Gillian Flynn to this writing style. I would, however, love to read more books from this author.

The Apartment by author K.L. Slater is yet another awesome thriller by Slater! While somewhat predictable, overall the book was very enjoyable and I would definitely recommend it!

Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This book was a quick easy read. Although there were a few twists in it the story overall was quite predictable, and not all that suspenseful.

The fuq I just read? Not as well crafted as the author’s other thrillers, but worth reading for the weird factor

Freya’s life is in tatters. Her husband has cheated on her and she’s losing her home. How will she provide a safe place for her daughter? She believes her luck is changing when she finds an affordable apartment rented out by the charming Dr. Marsden. While initially the Apartment seems like a godsend, Freya soon senses something odd about her new home, something that may be worse than anything she ever imagined

Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to review this book. If you are in the mood for suspense then you will want to read this book. If you are in mood to be surpised and shocked how the story plays out then by all means read this book. After reading this book you will want to devour every novel written by Slater.
