In the book "The Baby Monitor," we follow Miriam's return home with her newborn Samuel.

Waiting for her at home are her husband Jeremy, daughter Liv, and countless complications.

From the baby monitor emitting suspicious sounds to the impossible and terrifying behavior of little Liv, the story unfolds.

At a time when Miriam needs the support of her loved ones and they want to help her, it becomes increasingly apparent that not all assistance is well-intentioned.

Moreover, it becomes evident that someone, under the appearance of helping her, actually intends to harm her. This person is willing to do ANYTHING. Until the last page, the question remains open – who is this person, and can Miriam trust anyone at all?

The writing style is highly readable, and the book is a quick read. The reader experiences frustration, feeling the helplessness, hurt, fear, and entrapment, along with Miriam's disappointment in her closest family members and friends. The author successfully evokes strong feelings of paranoia in the reader, making them doubt everything & everyone ...

I thoroughly enjoyed reading it, and the twists and unexpected explanations kept me engaged until the end, which I didn't foresee and left me with some unanswered questions.

First, I want to thank Rosie Walker, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.

OMG don’t blink or you will miss something in Rosie Walker's insanely twisted new psychological thriller The Baby Monitor! Rosie kept throwing curve balls after curve balls that totally blew my mind. Clear your schedule for this totally addicting book that I could not look away from! This deserves way more than 5 stars!

Rosie would like to dedicate this book to her Mum Hilary. She understands now that she has a daughter of her own how amazing her Mum is. She is blessed to have you in her life.

Techies will probably devour some of the storylines!

My jaw was on the floor for so many intense and shocking scenes! So many times I wanted to rush into the book and see if the characters were ok!

My heart absolutely broke in a million pieces the way Liv reacted to meeting her newborn Brother Samuel. The things she said just tore me up inside! I needed to know why she was acting the way she was!

The Baby Monitor will have you questioning the character of every character in this book! You think you know someone but you really don’t! I thought I had it all figured out and bam she threw in more twist plots!

Oh the way the book ended I was screaming we need a sequel!! Netflix we need this book turned into a series that I would binge watch!

This is what a mother’s nightmares are made of…

Miriam and Jeremy have recently welcomed a son, Samuel to their family. They also have a five year old daughter, Liv. When Miriam was pregnant with Liv, she experienced severe post-partum psychosis. With the birth of Samuel, her husband and friends are keeping a close eye on Miriam for symptoms. This includes installing a baby monitor, so Jeremy can see their kids and make sure his wife is okay when he’s on business trips. Everything is fine, until one night, Miriam hears the monitor telling her daughter that “Mommy doesn’t love you.”

Miriam is obviously hysterical, but her husband is concerned that she’s exhibiting symptoms of postpartum psychosis again. Jeremy, trying to help his wife, sends her to a mental health facility. So she can get the help that she needs. Miriam insists that she does not need to go to the “retreat” for a “rest” as Jeremy calls it. When Miriam gets back home, there are cameras everywhere. Worried that her husband still thinks she’s losing her mind, she decides to enlist the help of her tech savvy friend Zain. What he finds, Miriam would have never guessed.

It was very easy to connect with the main character Miriam. She's exhausted, confused and scared. She is being told by her husband and friends that she is imagining these things. Miriam knows that she is not. Is someone trying to manipulating her because they're trying to take something from Miriam. Is it her husband, having a secret affair. Could it be someone in her inner circle of friends, or is it someone from Miriam's past out for retribution?

This story will get you hooked within the first chapter. There are so many possibilities who could be involved. Is Miriam hallucinating, or is someone out to get her? The ending was just as enjoyable as the rest of the book. Get ready for the twists and turn that happen all throughout this book. It is definitely a page-turner and quite entertaining. A four star read for me. I recommend for all psychological thriller readers!

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the advanced readers copy. THE BABY MONITOR will publish February 1, 2024.

I was a bit uncertain at the start of this book but once I got in to it I was hooked. Lots of twists but then ending threw me. I wasnt sure about that. Good book though and well worth four stars
Thanks to Netgalley for the opportunity to read this ARC

The Baby Monitor had me glued from start to finish. Although, I was right about the antagonist initially, the plot twists really had me second guessing myself and wondering if the narrator was reliable, which I loved. I’ll definitely check out more of Walker’s books in the future.

Thank you NetGalley and Bookoutre for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

WOW!!! What an incredible thriller that had me hooked til the very last page! The Baby Monitor was a twisty tale and I couldnt put it down!

*Advance copy provided by NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Rosie Walker’s The Baby Monitor was a fast-paced thriller that got me out of a reading slump! Miriam just had her second child and, after suffering with PPD with her first, she feels like everyone is watching her. Not just during interactions, but she’s convinced she’s on camera- all the time. And sometimes the person watching on the camera is talking to her 5 year old daughter, telling her that her mommy doesn’t love her anymore, alienating her at a difficult time.

There was so much tension in this book- Miriam felt like an unreliable narrator throughout and I went back and forth so many times on believing her. Moments of vindication, like when her friend Zain confirmed there were cameras everywhere, were immediately questioned. Is Miriam making this up? Does Zain really exist (maybe I’m too paranoid too?!)?

Add to this how very relatable Miriam was as a new mom- I immediately was brought back to the early days of questioning whether I was doing everything right. Validating her feelings by relating them to your own made it hard to distrust Miriam, even though your instincts screamed something was off.

My favorite part was the epilogue. It was fun to trace back the “truth” through the story and see how it was woven in, but also to take what you know and try to put together what happened next. This was a great psychological thriller that I highly recommend!

Thanks Netgalley and the Publisher. Not sure what to make of this book to be honest I liked it but I didn't. I will leave this up to others.

This is the first book I've read by Rosie Walker and I will definitely be reading more! Extremely gripping storyline from the get go, I didn't want to put my kindle down. Absolutely FANTASTIC!

Thank You NetGalley and Bookouture for your generosity and gifting me a copy of this amazing eARC!

I’d like to thank Bookouture and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read ‘The Baby Monitor’ written by Rosie Walker in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

When Miriam puts five-year-old Liv to bed she senses the baby monitor following her every move, it’s even speaking to Liv telling her that mummy doesn’t love her. Although Miriam is exhausted after giving birth to Samuel she knows she isn’t losing her mind so when she sees cameras in every room and strange things start happening in the house even though her husband Jeremy is away at business meetings, she immediately thinks he’s trying to make out she’s a bad mother.

‘The Baby Monitor’ is a creepy psychological thriller where a new mother hears voices through the baby monitor and someone is determined to make Miriam appear unstable. This is a well-written thriller that’s kept me hooked from the first page and is so spooky I felt a chill up my back as I was reading. It’s so full of suspense, drama and nail-biting twists and turns that I couldn’t stop reading until I’d reached the conclusion with its final intriguing and unexpected twist. I thought the end was rushed and slightly disappointing but despite this it’s a cleverly thought-out thriller that’s kept my attention throughout and is one that I’m happy to recommend.

This is a page turner with some unexpected twists throughout the book.

Imagine hearing a chilling voice saying damaging things to your child through your baby monitor, and then being removed from your family because those who love you think you need to be in a mental health facility for two weeks. Who can you trust?

This book would have been 5 starts, but the main character's actions did not ring true to me now and then.

I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

I have to admit I was hooked and couldn't put this book down. I could not stand the husband, Jeremy, I found him incredibly unlikeable, nearly every mention of him made me cringe. It was very fast paced and exciting in most parts but then would suddenly waffle on a bit and I'd get a little bored waiting for the action, but boy did it deliver

Edge of the seat thriller about a young mother who is adjusting to life with a newborn and a five year old, and someone is trying to take away her children and her sanity. I don't usually like stories where women are being gaslighted and especially ones where women are held against their will in mental health facilities, but this one was just different enough to make me read the whole book in one sitting.

Miriam has just come home with baby Samuel and her five year daughter doesn't want a baby brother and is already acting up when Miriam hears a voice coming from the baby monitor; a voice saying "Your mommy doesn't love you". Jeremy, her husband doesn't believe her, mostly because she suffered from postpartum psychosis with her first birth and he fears it is happening again.

Miriam fears she is being watched and Olivia insists someone is talking to her through the monitor, but Jeremy fears for her mental health and makes arrangements for her to attend a wellness center that is really a mental health facility that is locked down and takes away her. phone. While she is at this facility she meets a friend named Kate who tries to help her figure out what is going on since Olivia won't see her and tells her she has another mommy and someone sent a resignation to Miriam's employer without her consent. Lots of twists and turns and I rooted for Miriam to gain the upper hand in this fight for her life. I did find the ending to be lacking because it wasn't really clear what happened but overall I enjoyed this book. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy of this book in exchange for a review.

I received this book from NetGalley. It ended as a solid 4 stars.
At first, I wasn’t sure I was going to like it and about a 1/4 of the way through, I was hooked.
So many plot twists and turns. A bit confusing at the end. Maybe one plot twist too many as it seems thrown In and not thoroughly explained.
Fun read that will keep you wondering.

I couldn't put down this book; I needed to know how it ended. If you love psychological thrillers that have you on the EDGE of your SEAT, this book is for you. I would give it more than five stars if I could.

Thanks to NetGalley and Harper Collins Publishers for this Advanced Reader’s Copy of The Baby Monitor by Rosie Walker due to be published February 1, 2024.
Mirium has had her second child and doesn’t know if she can handle a newborn and a five-year-old. Her husband, Jeremy, thinks the same thing. She had several friends – Jac, Nicole, Zain – but doesn’t know which ones she can trust when she starts imagining things going wrong in her house.
I really enjoyed this one – it was my first book by Rosie Walker – and now I need to read some of her others.
It kept me interested in the whole book to see who was loyal – Mirium’s husband, friends, or none of them!
It was very addictive and suspenseful, kept my interest, and the end was a total shock – definitely recommend this one!

I read this as an ARC from NetGalley and the publisher. This is a great and thrilling novel! I loved that it felt fast paced, and I felt the emotions were appropriately displayed in this novel. I definitely recommend this to thriller fans!

I was fortunate to receive an ARC from Bookouture for this book in exchange for a spot on the blog tour.

Despite not having children, I still really enjoyed this book! It was creepy quite honestly, who is putting ideas in the child’s head? At times I was put in mind of the Exorcist. The novel is very cleverly plotted in leading you to suspect various family members and friends and although I my guess was correct, it didn’t in any way detract from my enjoyment of the ending.

My favourite quote:

“I can’t even compute how a broken fridge-freezer could take so much from me. So much waste. So much loss.”

WHAT A RIDE!! This book pulled me in from the first page. I didn’t want to put it down. The ending left a little something to be desired, even so, add this to your TBR. You will not regret it.

Thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.
