I was transported to a house in the suburbs of Northampton where the two residents live a very different life to their neighbours. I struggled with a couple of my previous reads in different ways, but then this absolute beauty made it to the top of the TBR and I was reminded why I love books, why I love to read. I had been having a bit of a rough time with my book choices. What Lies Between Us is a seriously twisted and unsettling read which I devoured with utter glee.
Secrets Maggie will do anything to protect… There are a lot more secrets she’s not aware of. But truth be told, Nina doesn’t know the half of it. Because Maggie has done terrible things and Nina wants her to be punished. Whilst Maggie is chained up in the soundproofed attic and only allowed out a couple of times a week for a shared meal together.
Nina gets the run of the house, goes out to work at the library, does the weekly shop and the cooking. Maggie and Nina live in the same house together and have done for many years. Rather than not review it on the blog (which would be a huge shame as it’s an absolute corker of a read) I’ve decided to be a rebel and share my 20 books reviews beyond the 1st September deadline 🤫 I’ve completely run out of time this year in regards to both reading and reviewing. Officially I should have reviewed this book before the 20 books deadline which was 1st September 2022 but that was never going to happen. What Lies Between Us was part of two challenges for me this year – ’12 books in 12 months’ and ’20 books of summer 2022′. What Lies Between Us was published by Thomas & Mercer on 15th May 2020 and is available in paperback, audio and digital formats. Today I am delighted to share my review of What Lies Between Us by John Marrs. Because Maggie has done things to Nina that can’t ever be forgiven, and now she is paying the price.īut there are many things about the past that Nina doesn’t know, and Maggie is going to keep it that way-even if it kills her.īecause in this house, the truth is more dangerous than lies.” When they are finished, Nina helps Maggie back to her room in the attic, and into the heavy chain that keeps her there. Except that these secrets are not buried in the past.Įvery other night, Maggie and Nina have dinner together. They say every house has its secrets, and the house that Maggie and Nina have shared for so long is no different. “ Nina can never forgive Maggie for what she did.
