This one was a fast paced and very excellent book. I was hooked from the start . Hard to put down .

Thank you NetGalley for letting me read this in advance

Ruth Harrow had be hooked SO quick! I love a book that I just don't want to put down. I felt engaged and didn't feel like there was any dull moments or moments where I felt bored.

I was new to this author but I’m so happy that I had a chance to read this book. This book had me on the edge of my seat. I loved the twists and turns that have me wanting more. Great book!!

Chloe had been locked away in her father’s cottage for 12 years. She believes her father murdered her mother. After escaping to the outside for the first time, Chloe is met with new curiosities and an interest in her neighbor Matt. Her father discovers her escape and makes it harder for her to leave. More and more questions arise until Chloe finds different versions of the truth.

The Guilty Girl, by Ruth Harrow is a captivating thriller. I enjoyed it for the most part, though the repetitiveness in the beginning used to remind us how sheltered Chloe is was a bit much. That being said, I think Chloe could have been written a bit more innocent and sheltered. It felt like she already knew so much about the world.

The ending is a bit fast. I would have liked to see more. I can’t really say what I mean without giving spoilers haha.

Loved the plot twists. I think they are what really made the story for me.

Thank you to NetGalley and Inkubator Books for the ARC in exchange for an honest review!

In summary, Ruth Harrow's electrifying and fast-paced thriller, with its stunning ending and addictive short chapters, kept me engrossed and on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. I highly recommend this book to fans of Frieda McFadden. Hats off to Ruth Harrow for delivering such a great read!

I’ve read a lot of thrillers in my time and unfortunately i just didn’t glue with this one! i found it similar to other previous reads and guessed the ending however it was incredibly well written and did keep me guessing throughout

This was such a captivating thriller which had me hooked from start to finish. There was many twists and turns some I really wasn’t expecting. I absolutely loved how well developed the characters were it and I loved the writing style it definitely helped build up the suspense throughout. I really enjoyed this thriller and will definitely be recommending it. Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my advanced copy.

I was enthralled with this book!
A girl and her dad live in hiding for 12 years after he runs off with her following an "accident" with her mother.
The little girl is now a teenager and getting curious. It was fun to watch her sneak out and meet a boy, learning aboutvreal life for the first time! And it was interesting to see how the father shaped their daily lives in order to stay hidden for over a decade.
As twists began to reveal things got intense! Some I guessed, some I didn't, but even the ones I guessed were exciting to read!
The last half of the book kept me on edge and hopeful for this child to get a normal life!
I really enjoyed this book

What is guilt? The title & cover pulled me in and the story kept my interest.
The ties that bind really do define what we believe and what is considered normal. Normal is also what we know, what is familiar, at least until we learn differently. I enjoyed this book & didn't realize it was book 4. It read well as a stand alone.

I binged this book within a couple of days which is fast for me! It Absolutely consumed me! The characters really drew me I'm and chloe's life was just so unimaginable! A very fast paced thriller , a gripping read and very enjoyable, highly recommend and look forward to read other books by this author. 5 stars easily ✨️ 👌

This was my first read by this author and it won’t be my last I thoroughly enjoyed it. It did start off slow but once it picked up I could not put it down, so many twists!

What a thrilling ride! The author did a fantastic job wirh character development. I felt like I really understood Chloe. The book did start off a little slow, but once it got moving, it kept me on the edge of my seat until the very end.. Highly recommend!

Thank you to Netgalley and Inkubator books for the opportunity to read this ARC.

I read a lot of crime books and thrillers, I have not been so hooked on a plotline for a long time.
 
Suspenseful so much that I found myself frantically swiping for the next page.
 
This plays with your emotions, I was willing Chloe along and found myself furious with the way she was being treated.
 
The plot develops as more information comes to light, there are the inevitable twists and turns and yet the tension remains.
 
The ending, although a little soft, possibly leaves the door open for a sequel…….
 
Brilliant work by Ruth Harrow.

I loved this book, I was totally engrossed and could not put it down. What a fantastic book. Thank you for the opportunity to review this book.

a solid 5 star review

This was such a captivating read overall, I was hooked right away and I felt very immersed in the mystery of the book.

This was a good book, it gave me freida mcfadden vibes. It was very captivating and I wanted to know what was going on, the twist was good and I'm glad I carried on reading. Beautifully written, highly reccomened.

Thank you Net Galley and Incubator Books for a chance to read this book. I was disappointed in it as it was repetitive and depressing. An over obsessed father doing what Mark/Albert did to Chloe/Ruby is harrowing (pardon the pun). I kept waiting for a twist but wasn't one. I don't think the story was thrilling but tension builds from time to time. Good ending but again not what I was expecting.

Pretty entertaining but slow start. I like to see a little more action in my books. Ruth Harrow is a good author hope to see more like this.

Keine schlechte Geschichte, allerdings habe ich mir ein wenig mehr versprochen, ausgehend vom Klappentext.

I started this book, and put it down for a bit. Once I picked it back up, it picked up and kept my interest. It was fast-paced, outside of repetitiveness in the beginning. I went into this one blind, and I truly enjoyed it. The premise of this story was creepy, and I constantly was wondering what was true and what wasn't. The last quarter of the book was WHOA!!! The ending was so satisfying! Once I picked it back up, I was hooked and entranced right up until the end.
