I’m honestly not sure how people are giving this book 5 stars cause about 50% of the way through I got such a bad ick from it that I almost DNF. Also, this is probably the most generous 3 stars I’ve ever given. It honestly might be closer to a 2-2.5. I think maybe Frieda needs to take a break from pumping these books out so fast bc this one just wasn’t it..

We get it, Nick is soooo hot and Eve is so plain except for her amazing shoes.. ok


SPOILER…..

Literally wtf at the end how we find out Eve is also a predator… how are you gonna talk shit about your husband being a predator when you’re one?? “Jay’s” wife and kids… nah just his mom and 1 year old baby sister that he babysits. Weird as hell for a direction to take in a book.

Thanks NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for the E-ARC

As always, Freida doesn’t disappoint. A little bit of the story was ick but the overall twists and book was still great! She has a way of keeping me hooked from the start!!

I have now read all of McFadden's published thrillers. While I did enjoy this book it is unfortunately my second to least favorite book by McFadden. That being said, it is not a bad book. I think the main issue for me is that because one of the POVs is a teenager, a majority of this book read pretty YA. I also found aspects of this book wildly ridiculous. I am not saying I wasn't entertained.. however, I didn't feel this book hit as well as previous McFadden books. I also rolled my eyes at a few of the twists, especially the last one. I still think this book was a good one, just not incredible

More like 3.5 stars! I thought I knew what was going to happen and then all of sudden Freida throws in a twist!! This happened multiple times throughout the book. I absolutely ate this book up

This is another great “twisty” read by Freida McFadden. The Teacher keeps you guessing throughout the whole book…and then boom another surprising plot twist! Love reading anything by Freida McFadden!

I thought this book was, interesting, and it held my attention, so it was a very quick read. However, I was very disturbed, which I think was the point of the book lol There are many elements that deal with some pretty heavy topics, but I knew this coming into the book, well assumed, given the title.

The Teacher by Freida McFadden
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

🕵🏻🤯👠🎃

Freida has done is yet again! I absolutely devoured this book. Twist after twist! Just when I thought I had everything figured out, she throws another twist in there. I don’t normally reread books, but I think an exception will be made for this one. She never disappoints!

This book was SO GOOD!

I loved the twists, especially the last two twists! Like wow👏👏👏 This book was a freakin’ adventure. I didn’t read the blurb of this book and that made the experience even more better!

What more should I say? It’s Freida McFadden who wrote this book. And she always gives the best to her fans!

The story was brilliant and the way it was executed was AMAZING!! Fast-paced as always and I loved the characters in this story. The tension, suspense, mystery, and not-knowing-what-for-happening kept me on the edge.

Also, can we take a sec and appreciate how brilliant this cover is? I LOVE IT SO MUCH!

I highly recommend reading this book and read it without reading the blurb. Trust me, it's gonna be great!

A huge thank you to Netgalley and Poisoned Pen Press for this ARC in exchange for an honest review!

Another amazing Freida book!!!
She’s a twist master!
Her books are always full of complex characters, deep plots and shocking turns.
The Teacher couldn’t be no less fluid and surprising.
A MUST READ for all thriller fans!!!

This is probably going to be in my top five favorite reads of the year. I am absolutely obsessed with this book and finished a few days ago and STILL cannot stop thinking about it. It was easy to get through, the plot, the characters, everything was just phenomenal. The ending, of course, it’s Freida, so obviously *chef’s kiss*. Again, I’m obsessed. And because Freida McFadden uses amazing narrators for the audiobook versions, I will also be listening to that to get the full experience.

The prologue has someone digging a grave to bury a body. The rest of the story is told in alternating voices -- the teacher and the student. To say more would be to reveal too much.

Even though I could predict some elements, there were many surprises and the tension and suspense was so great I could not put this book down! As a former high school teacher, I can attest that the situations depicted here are scarily accurate -- including the creepy parts. If you love suspense, this is the book for you. Read it!!

Wow! I am so thankful that I was able to do an ARC review for this. I could not put it down. So many twists and turns. One twist would happen and then two seconds later something else happens! It was amazing. Then the epilogue, my mind was blown! Freida has done it again, a perfect psychological thriller!

Lesson One: Trust No one

Thank you, Netgalley and @poisonedpenpress, for my copy of “The Teacher” by Freida McFadden.

The Teacher is a twisted psychological thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat until the end. The Teacher is told through multiple POVs: Eve, a math teacher at Casham High School; her husband Nathaniel, a popular English teacher; and high school student Addie, who has had her share of trouble.

I will say that the author managed to craft a book in which I was not too fond of all three main characters but made me stay engaged the whole time. At times, I did feel bad for Eve and Addie.

Eve is stuck in a loveless marriage, trying to find the perfect pair of shoes to solve her problems. Addie is a troubled young woman who did not have a stable home life and perhaps intentionally ruined the career of another teacher.

If there were ever a character that was a walking ick, it would be Nathaniel. He is a master manipulator.

The story was a page-turner; I could not put it down. I devoured it. The story had so many twists and turns. One in particular made my jaw drop.

I would rate this book ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Please check your trigger warnings before picking this one up.

I loved this book. Plot twist was predictable. I loved the characters. Maybe not the teacher lol. It held my attention. It could have had more characters backstory and development

This was the first book I've read from McFadden, and I'm absolutely hooked! The short and suspensful chapters made me want to read just a little more to the point that it was a very quick read. While some of it was a bit predictable, there were definitely some twists at the end that I did not see coming! I will definitely recommend the book and will be reading more of this author.

One of my favorites by Freida!!!!! I LOVED this!! I’m still staring at the wall in confusion and disbelief after that epilogue and I’m itching for a reread. This was a curveball that I did NOT seem coming.

I also feel like with the subject matter, it can be uncomfortable so know that going in. But you just have to trust Frieda to do the story justice and take you on along for the ride. A must read!!

Captivating read with an ending you CANNOT predict! I am a huge Freida fan, so I stopped everything to read this book. And boy am I glad I did! Everything got ignored while I devoured this book in one sitting.

This book has everything you could want in a thriller - characters you hate, scenarios that make you upset, scenarios that make you cringe, and a plot that develops quickly. I just knew that I had it figured out, but there were twists I could not have predicted.

Overall, it was a great, fast-paced thriller that I flew through and enjoyed.

Thank you to NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for this ARC in exchange for my honest and voluntary review.

This was an amazing book! The subject, teacher, and student relationships are so relevant to today! Addie is a troubled student starting her Jr year in the local high school. She's lost her best friend Hudson to the most popular girl in school. She has Mrs. Bennett for math, her worst subject, and Mr. Bennett for English/Poetry her favorite subject. Will Addie be able to make it this year, or will the rumors destroy her and those around her? So many twists and one heck of an ending!! Read this book, you won't be disappointed!!

Love Freida and most of her books. This one fell a bit flat. The plot of the book was perverted and gross. The characters weren’t very likable except for Lotus. I loved her. Addie was annoying at the beginning. And it just goes to show how disgusting Nate was manipulating her. I gave 3 stars because the Epilogue in Freidas books are always 5 stars. 🔥

Thank you Mandy Chahal, Freida and NetGalley for this widget of The Teacher.

Wow, wow wow! Yet again, I'm always left with my mouth agape, becuse of the twists that are constantly being unfolded, folded and then tangled again until I have no idea who it even remotely it could be. This book really explores the lines of teaches student relationships, the lines it blurs, and how far a person love who make one go.
