The Downstairs Neighbor

Plot Details:
Emma is a downstairs neighbor to Paul, Steph, and Freya. She can't help but eavesdrop on their lives sometimes. Until one day, she realizes that Freya, Paul and Steph's teenage daughter has gone missing. What happened to her? Are things with this family not as great as they seem? Are Paul and Steph hiding something that led to Freya's disappearance? Emma has her own problems to deal with, but it seems that her neighbors' problems are affecting her as well.

My Thoughts:
Wow, was there a lot going on in this book! So many secrets being hidden. I loved this book for all that it had going on. I love finding out secrets and what characters are hiding. And of course, there's a twist. What really happened to Freya? I'm usually horrible at guessing these things, and this book was no exception. I loved the ending and the things that tied together. The characters were very likable, even if you had to suspend disbelief a bit on some things. I gave this book 4/5 stars, only docking one star because I thought that having so many characters to learn about seemed to make it so that you never got to know and relate to any of the characters as well as I'd like to.

I enjoyed it. As it wrapped up though, there was a bit too much going on. Too many red herrings or dark secrets. Even though that's kind of what these books are about, it was just a little too much. Still fun though.
