great fast paced thriller that keeps you engaged almost the entire time. the parallel lives of the twos sisters switching and the family drama make for a fun and unique thriller/mystery. overall a quick read with interesting twists, turns, and characters.

The Wong Sister was a great read!
A family is torn apart when the youngest child is abducted. The mother struggles for years as she blames herself for leaving the baby unattended. The older 2 sisters are close but when the father passes away their mother moves to France. She is unable to deal with the loss of her husband but has never been able to deal with the loss of her baby.
The younger sister marries and has twins. The older sister is married to the perfect man. But when her husband is killed in her sisters house the plot twists and twists and twists!
I highly recommend this book! I couldn’t stop reading it. There are a lot of names and I had to remember who was who but all in all it was really good.

4 ⭐️ This is an interesting and fast paced thriller with many twists, some predictable, but enough surprise to keep me interested.
Two murders, and a lot of family drama enter the lives of Tasha and Aaron and her sister Alice and Kyle. Some seemingly unconnected events (a kidnapped sister) play out and tie it all together. Lots of drama, plot twists, and lies all lead into a surprise ending.
Thank you NetGalley and Harper Paperbacks for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This one pulled me in fast — sisters swapping lives, a sudden tragedy, and a chilling note? Yes, please. The setup was gripping, and the tension never fully lets up. Tasha’s panic and confusion felt raw and believable, and the mystery around what really happened to Alice had me guessing the whole time.
The whole “it was supposed to be you” angle gave everything this underlying creep factor that worked really well. There were some solid twists, and the way the story unraveled kept me flipping pages way too late.
A few parts stretched believability a bit, and I had to suspend some logic here and there, but it didn’t kill the vibe. If you like family drama mixed with suspense and secrets you definitely didn’t see coming, this is a fun one to get lost in.

Thank you to Claire Douglas, Harper Perennial and Paperbacks and Netgalley for the e-arc of The Wrong Sister! Loved the premise of this book! Twisty thriller with short chapters! Flawed family dynamics! Major twist took me totally by surprise! Keeps you interested and guessing the entire way through! Devoured this book! This book publishes on 8/5/25!

Tasha and her husband Aaron do a life swap for a week with her well off sister and her husband for their upcoming anniversary. An unsettling turn of event leads them to an early return, and the rest of the book is a series of twists and turns trying to unravel the truth from that evening that changed everything.
I haven’t read a thriller in a quite some time, and boy oh boy was this the one to re-ignite my passion! I literally couldn’t put this one down, even when my eyes were trying to slam themselves shut in the wee hours of the night and my brain was telling me I’d regret my decision in the morning when I had to get up with my kiddos! As much as I enjoyed it, however, I’m a tad disappointed with the end. It doesn’t exactly answer who made the statement on the first page of the book. I think I know, but I don’t like not knowing for sure. Other than that, I loved everything about this book!

Really enjoyed this book and the many twists that were not expected! Two sisters swap homes for a weekend and a murder takes place in one of their homes. A letter is given to one of the sisters saying "it was supposed to be you." I like when I'm not able to guess the twists and I was very surprised. Would definitely recommend!

I really enjoyed this audiobook! The Wrong Sister was full of tension and unexpected twists that kept me curious the whole way through. The story explores family secrets and trust in a really compelling way. The narration was great and made it easy to stay hooked.
Thanks to NetGalley for the chance to listen!

Enjoyed the story. Keep me interested until the end but felt like something was missing. Didn’t see the twist coming though!

Great read. Sisters Tasha and Alice and their husbands swap homes for a few days. Feelings of being watched, a break in and a few bodies later, we find that many secrets a being kept. Kept me guessing until the end.

This book is full of suspense and family drama and the twist was truly shocking. Alice and her sister Tasha decide to “trade lives” so that Tasha and her husband can reconnect after having twins. A break-in occurs at Tasha and Aarons home and it appears that the wrong sister was targeted, or was she? The books also revolves around Tasha and Alice’s other sister that disappeared as a baby. Could this have something to do with the break-in and attack?
I thought I had the book figured out a few times but I was very wrong which made the read even better!
Thank you, Harper Perennial and Paperbacks, for providing this book for review consideration via NetGalley. All opinions are my own.

Thank you NetGalley for the advance copy in exchange for my honest review!!

A convoluted read. A lot of twist abd turns and suprises.
A whodunit thriller of lies and deceit. Thank you netgallery for the ARC

This was SO GOOD! I read it in 24 hours. Every chapter kept me on the edge of my seat. There’s crime, family drama, mystery. Claire Douglas was brilliant for this one!
Thank you to NetGalley, Claire Douglas, and Penguin for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Thank you for the ARC!
I definitely enjoyed this book by Claire Douglas ! I couldn’t put this one down and it had me guessing until the end. I thought I had it all figured it out but it turns out I was wrong . Definitely 5 stars !

This somewhat reminded me of an oldish movie that I can't exactly name without spoiling it. I liked how this portrayed the bond of family and what you would do for those you love. This was heartbreaking, tragic, and unsettling in ways. It makes you think what you would do in certain situations. While the pacing may seem slow at times, it worked for the story. This was a solid mystery/family drama that was hard to put down at the end of each chapter. The writing was captivating, and the execution was exceptional. Four stars.
Thank you, Netgalley and Harper Perennial, and Paperbacks for this ARC.

This was such a good family drama and full of suspense! I love drama in families…in books and this delivered. It was difficult to put the book down, I kept wanting to figure out what was going on. Characters were good and the plot twist kept me going.

The story revolves around two sisters. Tasha and Alice. Tasha is married to Aaron and is mom to twin girls named Elsie and Flossie (how cute are their names?) Alice is married to Kyle, and they have no kids but they are both successful and rich, Feeling the strain on their marriage due to having twins, working, and always being tired, Alice offers up their townhouse they recently purchased in Venice as a getaway place for her sister and brother-in-law with the offer that she and Kyle will watch the twins.
Unwillingly, Tasha accepts and just as she is starting to relax and enjoy herself in Venice she gets a call from home letting her know that Kyle is dead and Alice is in the hospital and have been attacked. They fly home immediately and that's when all the twists and turns of this story really start! Who killed Kyle, and attacked Alice? Was their lives as perfect as Tasha always believed. Suspicions are plentiful in this book that literally has so many twists and turns. This book shows that you don't always know what is going behind someone else's door or in their past!
Thank you to NetGalley, Claire Douglas and HarperCollins Publishers for allowing me early access to this fun, twisty, turny thriller!

This was a book where every character seems suspicious, and every page gave you another mystery. . I really enjoyed all the twists and turns on this one and was was happy with the ending and the way the story came full circle from one generation of sister protecting about the abduction of the daughter and then the next generation of sister protecting at the end about the murder.
