" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 This such a crazy book..in the best of ways! Not a typical domestic. It’s just so much more. I loved all the women characters! Even the perky housewife who was so annoying in the beginning becomes so sympathetic and then something else entirely. Plus the audio narration by Imogen Church is a tour de force performance, maybe a little wacky but absolutely amazing anyway lol "
"Very good, loved the drama, kept unfolding as you went! Short and to the point. Very good read! "

"As the fall season is approaching, I’ve been beginning to break out all of the books that give me fall energy! I’ve also just been super excited to read this highly rated Thriller!
A Quiet Street follows three woman’s povs who live in an exclusive community on the Oregon Coast. Cora, a bubbly housewife, with a small family. Paige, Cora’s bestfriend who’s still in grieving…And Georgia, their beautiful neighbor who really only keeps to herself. All three of them have things to hide, things that even us as the readers don’t even have the privilege to know until the final pages.
The street isn’t so quiet once the web of paranoia begins to unfold, and pieces of the story start to connect together. Trust is valued above all, and friendship is unexpected in the midst of everything. But what will become of these woman when everything falls into place?
I wish I could’ve rated this book higher, however, in the beginning I felt like I was reading a nonfiction drama book. I know most of that information is necessary for the story, but the slowness of the pacing made me uninterested very quickly, and I struggled to push through simply for the highly rated ending! I do not regret reading it, and once things started to get interesting I thoroughly enjoyed my time! It also sucks that I just simply wasn’t in the mood to listen to this book when I did…
I recommend this book to anyone looking for a physiological thriller, filled with drama, with constant mystery✨ "
"Really enjoyed this book! Hard to put down. Just a little odd that some characters were 1st person, and some were 3rd. Narrator was British, but more characters were American than British, so she had to change her accent - she did a great job distinguishing between characters, though certain times the same character would sound different sentence to sentence. One character was 3rd person so narrated with British accent, but when she spoke it was American accent - it’s! But didn’t bother me enough to stop listening. Great ending! "
