The premise drew me into wanting to read this novel. It starts with two dead bodies and then you go back in time to see what happened, however, you are hearing it from two different perspectives and you do not know what is really the truth. there is definitely themes of DV and it can get a bit dark so keep that in mind if you are sensitive that that type of material.

His Truth Her Truth was an enjoyable thriller. While the pacing felt off at some parts of the book I still found myself engrossed in the storyline and enjoying the characters.

I found this to be an enjoyable psychological thriller. The characters different perspectives were good. However I did feel the pace to slow down in some parts. If you enjoy he said, she said Thrillers and different opposing views you will enjoy this book

This book is a tale of two halves the first part will bring the story to what leads to two bodies being found in a kitchen these bodies are off a seemingly loving couple who have hit upon a bad patch Joe & Beth.
The writing in this book was very good and when you get used to the style of POV being given by Joe & Beth it makes an interesting read which will have your head pickled as you see the story unfold from their own eyes.
The story unfolds due to Beth Dad dying and it opening up family secrets of a mother who run off due to her dependence with alcohol and the effects it has had on Beth will she become just like her mother. Who do you trust family friends or even the family doctor.
The second part of the book unfolds the story of who did it and why what really is going on behind the late night arguments Beth new dependence on alcohol who has set them up or is it simply that love ran out the twists will keep you intrigued though I felt that sometimes they could have been wrapped up a bit quicker and got to point quicker though I can see were the author was coming from. The ending was good, with twists that brought it together and quite bluntly. Good book for those who love a little bit of drama, twitching curtains and a little bit of mystery.

Trigger warning would be DV and Alcohol abuse within the book.


Thank you to NetGalley, Harper Collins Uk and One More Chapter for the opportunity of this book as a ARC read.

This is a great psychological thriller.
The Police are called by a worried neighbour and they find Beth and Joe in a pool of blood in their home.
Somehow they are both still alive and the paramedics do everything they can to save them.
With Beth seriously injured in hospital, the Police are keen to speak to her, but her throat has been badly damaged.
Joe is unconscious so the Police struggle with finding out what really happened.
Beth had recently lost her father and was struggling to cope, and as the story develops we find out her relationship with Joe wasn’t great.
I won’t say anymore as there’s a few twists and turns in the story that I don’t want to spoil.
I really enjoyed trying to work out what happened that day, and can recommend this book.
Thanks to Harper Collins UK One More Chapter for the opportunity to read this book.

2.5 stars

Based on summary, I had high hopes for this story. The prologue definitely grabbed my attention. Short and to the point, it easily pulled me in. However, I can't say the same for the rest of the book. The pace was way too slow. There were hints of big twists, but they didn't happen. In fact, it felt like not much happened until the latter half of the book. And by that time, it was a bit too late, and things just felt rushed. Beth was frustrating, and I never really connected with her. I did enjoy the alternating points of view. This book is quite dark, so that is something readers may want to keep in mind.

Joe and Beth are both found stabbed in their own home. What follows is mostly a retrospective from each of their perspectives as to how a supposedly happy couple have attacked one another. Short chapters rattle along. Unfortunately I found the characters neither likeable nor the plot especially credible as Beth’s drug and alcohol fuelled haslcinations (or are they) take over. Keeps your attention as a quick read but ultimately a little unfulfilling

We begin at the end. We are told about two bodies being found in a kitchen of a relatively normal town but hang on - they’re still alive. This draws the readers into the following chapters which give the backstory to the initial chapter. We’re ina situation of which one to believe. Both of them are credible and flawed. When you read about what his motivations are, you’re team husband but then you read the wife’s part and minds are changed. If you like to be manipulated to become change to opposing teams then this is the book for you. I really enjoyed it.

This was such a fun read. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this ARC in exchange for my honest review!

Gladstone Village looks like the perfect English countryside escape—until one violent night shatters its peace. What really happened between Joe Trasker and Beth Stanford? That depends on whose version of the truth you believe.

I liked the alternating POVs, which added to the mystery and made it tough to know who to trust. The tone is dark, full of lies and self-delusion, which kept me engaged. Neither character is particularly likable—Beth has a ton of issues (some not her fault, but she doesn’t always help herself), and Joe is emotionally detached. They’re total opposites, which makes for an intriguing but odd dynamic.

The first half had me hooked, but the second half dragged. There were plenty of twists—maybe too many—and I figured things out a little too easily. Some moments felt over-the-top, and a few characters, especially the police, didn’t feel very believable.

Overall, it’s not a bad read, just not one that completely wowed me.

Thanks to NetGalley and Harper Collins, One More Chapter, for the ARC!

His Truth Her Truth was definitely a book of two halves.
We start the book with two bodies on the floor, blood everywhere, a home invasion gone wrong? The book is split into two halves. Part one is what happened before the event, who these people are, what they do for work, who their friends are and what events have happened. Part two is the who, what, what where and when. Trying to find out who is the culprit mixed with the police investigation.
This was definitely a book of two halves, the first really let me get to know Joe and Beth really well, what their day to day lives looked like, how suspicions started and the pressure both were under. The second part was full of twists and turns but felt rushed compared to the first part. I felt the first part could have been cut down a bit to allow a little more time for the second part. The characters were both likeable and not at the same time if that makes sense! The storyline was good and although the ending felt rushed everything was answered that needed to be.
I would like to thank NetGalley and HarperCollins UK, One More Chapter fir this ARC I received in exchange for an honest review.

I loved this novel, fantastic thriller with lots of twists. Just who is telling the truth? If you love thrillers told from different perspectives then this is for you. Many thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this. Will be recommending this to everyone I know.

This was such a great psychological thriller. I loved everything about this book and will be recommending it to all my book loving thriller friends.

I wanted to like this book so much, but unfortunately it was not for me.

This thriller follows a couple who are going through domestic abuse accusations, grief, murder, and various other points. I found the pacing of this book hard to follow. The chapters are short, so I felt like I was breezing through the book, but I actually felt like it hurt the pace because not enough information was given in each chapter. The writing almost felt manic in the speed that it goes. I also felt like I was able to catch the twist pretty early, which isn't a bad thing, but the reveal of it all felt like it was also rushed and wrapped up in a little bow.

Thank you NetGalley and Harper Collins, and The Hive for an eARC in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you NetGalley! What a crazy ride of a read. I was drawn into the story immediately. I really felt for the main characters and what they were going through. Even the side story was enthralling

A gripping thriller that kept me on the edge of my seat. Fast paced with the tension lasting until the very end. I would recommend this book.

The story follows Joe and Beth, each offering their own perspective on the unfolding events. The alternating POVs create a sense of suspense and intrigue, as readers are left questioning who to believe. While each character brings their unique background and motivations to the table, the central narrative revolves around a series of dramatic events that tie them together. The psychological depth of the characters adds complexity to the story, making their thoughts and actions an integral part of the suspense.

I appreciated the use of multiple POVs, which effectively kept the reader guessing who to trust. However, the abundance of plot twists made the story feel somewhat chaotic and rushed. Despite this, I enjoyed the thrill of exploring each character’s thoughts and perspectives on the unfolding events. That said, it was relatively easy to deduce the culprit behind the dramatic occurrences.

This was a fantastic psychological thriller, it had that feel that I was looking for and thought the overall concept worked. The characters had that feel that I was looking for and was invested in what was going on with them. It kept me guessing until the end and was really well done. Noelle Holten has a strong writing style.

I liked it! Very short, action packed chapters with enough intrigue and twists to keep me guessing made this an easy, quick, one day read for me. I had to find out with was actually telling the truth.
This is the first Noelle Holten book that I’ve read- it won’t be the last! I look forward to seeking out other titles by this author.
Thank You to NetGalley and HarperCollins UK, One More Chapter for the invitation to read and enjoy this ARC.

The blurb and prologue had me expecting a page turner but unfortunately that wasn't the book I read.

A couple is found after an incident in their kitchen, both on the floor, both holding knives.

The story picks up sometime before the faithful night and we got to see both of Beth's and Joe's point of view and was was happening before that night.

I wanted to like this book but first of all it was too long and I found the plot very dull. The same pattern gets repeated over and over again and there isn't any action happening until near the end of the book, by that point I had already lost nearly all internet to see what actually happened but I finished it because I rarely dnf a book.
