I finished this book in a day! A perfect book club read. I really enjoyed the twists and turns of this book.

This story is so engaging and kept my attention riveted the entire time. The pacing is smooth, not slowing in its momentum or steadily building tension. The plot is intelligent and complex, while still being understandable, and is clever in its execution and planning. The characters are also interesting and fully fleshed out with intriguing histories.

When she finds her mother missing, Cleo starts to investigate. What she finds out, will change everything she thought she knew about her family. A great suspenseful family drama story.

This book was a fantastic read. It was faced paced and kept me guessing until the last reveal. I found the characters to be a great mix of likable and untrustworthy. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good thriller.

This book took you on a journey. It definitely kept my attention throughout. However, you really need a character map for all the names listed. I had a very hard time figuring out who was who. It's told in multiple POVs and had transcripts, and news articles, etc... through the entire story. I liked the main characters and they definitely had some growth which I enjoyed. I wouldn't really say it was suspenseful, perhaps more of a mystery. Unfortunately, the ending was a real letdown. It felt like it was leading up to something so big and then it just fell flat and I feel like I have so many more questions. But, I did enjoy the writing and this was my first book by the author. I do plan to read some of her other ones.

This one had potential but it felt short for me. I didn't love it. It wasn't bad but not memorable either. I did enjoy certain story lines and it did keep me guessing.

I enjoyed this story overall.

I felt like there was a lot going on in the book, and although I enjoyed it, there were some parts and characters that I felt weren't entirely necessary.

I was not able to entirely predict the plot in this one, which is always a bonus for me, but I don't know if that had to do with how many red herrings there were.

Overall, it was a fine read.

Kimberly McCreight is a master storyteller in regards to writing about family dynamics and mother/daughter relationships. Like Mother, Like Daughter is no exception. Readers are invited into both women's worlds in order to untangle the secrets both generations are keeping from each other. This novel is a wonderful suspenseful journey where you can not fully trust any of the characters.

Thank you to NetGalley and Penguin Random House for the chance to read this book.

Imagine coming home from school (the university) for dinner with your Mom, as she has summoned you. You enter the house and see blood, a shoe and no Mom. Your Mom is missing.

The world as you know it starts to spin as you work to find your Mom. The past and present clash as the mother/daughter relationship is analyzed. Mom's past is analyzed. Dad, who is getting a divorce from your Mom, is analyzed. You, often mad at your Mom, is analyzed.

The twists of whodunit are good but not strong enough to be shocked in the end. However, would still recommend it!

Like Mother, Like Daughter is a stellar thriller by Kimberly McCreight. It had the right amount of characters and activities to keep me guessing until the end. Five Stars!!!

LIKE MOTHER, LIKE DAUGHTER is the latest thriller from Kimberly McCreight, an author whose writing and plotting I just adore. I was so excited to receive this ARC in exchange for my honest review. Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and the publishers, Knopf, Pantheon, Vintage, and Anchor | Knopf.

LIKE MOTHER, LIKE DAUGHTER takes us on the twisty journey of Kat, successful attorney and her daughter, Cleo, an NYU student, after Kat disappears. I loved the characters in this story and really believed the growth and conflict, which added so much to my enjoyment! A few moments of dialogue and plot felt a bit unreal/hard to believe, but all in all, this book was entertaining from start to finish. I would highly recommend it to fans of McCreight and other thriller authors.

As a mood reader, I gravitated towards this book because of the title and the fact that I just found out that I'm having a daughter of my own soon. However, the mother-daughter relationship in this book is quite contentious, one that I would not like to emulate whatsoever.

The story alternates between the present day, where Cleo has discovered that her mother has disappeared under suspicious circumstances and the days before, where we learn about what Katrina had been getting involved in. Her messy separation with Cleo's dad, her personal investigation into the mysterious death of her new fling, and Cleo's drug dealer ex-boyfriend are all potential leads into where Katrina may be now.

There are also transcripts, journal entries, and legal documentation sprinkled between the chapters. The addition of these made it feel like the author was trying too hard to infuse the story with an air of mystery. I prefer for that type of atmosphere to be incorporated into the writing itself.

There were a number of red herrings thrown in, but I was able to guess the culprit before it was revealed. However, there were still unexpected elements that I didn't foresee, and this was an enjoyable reading experience overall.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to review this book.

I enjoyed this one. It was a quick read. It's a thriller about a daughter who returns to her mom's house to discover her mother is missing and there's blood on the floor. The daughter begins to examine their relationship and her mother's past closely and realizes that she didn't really know her mom at all.

A race against time for a daughter to find her mother after her disappearance. Cleo’s entire vision of her mom is upended when secrets are revealed and nothing is as it seems.
Thank you #knopf and #NetGalley for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review

I really enjoyed this fun thriller! It's told from two point of views-one the high powered lawyer Mom, who is now missing. Her perspective leads up to the day she goes missing. Her 20 year old daughter shares her perspective, as hers starts when her Mom goes missing. I read this quickly and could not put down. Love the NYC setting, the mother daughter-relationship, even the Mom's tragic childhood backstory that is slowly filled in as the story progresses. Not sure why I don't see more people reading this!

I couldn’t put this book down! I enjoy Kimberly McCreight’s writing, so I had to give this one a read.

Like Mother, Like Daughter is the perfect fast-paced & suspenseful novel that will have you guessing all the way up until the end. The characters were so detailed. I really enjoyed the twists, and I didn’t see the ending coming.

Like Mother, Like Daughter is a quick read that’s unlikely to leave a lasting impression.
Chloe’s estranged mother Kat is missing with only a bloody shoe to indicate something has gone wrong. Chloe starts digging in to her mother’s life and is shocked to learn she’s on dating apps and separated from her dad. But as more details are uncovered Chloe will learn that her mother isn’t as perfect as she once thought. Following alternative timelines and narratives between Kat and Chloe before and after her disappearance, the story move’s quickly. However I didn’t find the novel to be very suspenseful or thrilling as reviews promised.

This was an easy read and kept me interested. Just wasn’t super surprised by the ending. :) I would still recommend it to others.

Mother and daughter conflict and drama with a mystery.

Cleo and her mother, Kat, do not exactly get along these days. They've become estranged. Cleo chafes under Kat's controlling manipulations and she tries to escape that influence while attending college nearby. Finally agreeing to come home for dinner to discuss their relationship, Cleo finds the food burnt, blood on the floor, and her mother gone.

Although there were some interesting diversions, this is basically the usual trope where the amazing, well-meaning mother who has her daughter's safety and best interests at heart is misunderstood and treated badly by the ungrateful daughter -- who soon realizes her mother was right about everything. Along with Cleo finally realizing that mother knows best, there's some legal stuff going on as a side plot that was likely included to make the story a bit more interesting and, indeed, that whole aspect of the lawsuit and drug company coverup was far more compelling to me. The backstory about Kat's time at Haven House and the ridiculousness of the boyfriends really turned me off to the plausibility of that part of the book. In short, there was just so much going on all over the place. And, the truth was, I didn't like any of the characters. The conclusion was anticlimactic.

I was able to listen to the audiobook while following along in the e-book ARC provided by the publisher. The two female narrators did an adequate job of voicing the characters; they were certainly dramatic, when necessary, but the production would have benefited from having a male reader as well.

A solid thriller, that fans of the genre will really like! it had a lot of great twists and turns that kept me hooked and the ending was just OK. I was entertained while reading it and did enjoy it, but it just won’t be one. I remember for a long time. Nevertheless, I would still recommend it because it’s an interesting premise and fun to read!
