À propos de cet audio

Staying with a friend and her husband is sexier—and deadlier—than anyone could have imagined, in this “delightfully salacious” (Shondaland) domestic suspense novel from the New York Times bestselling author of the Reese’s Book Club pick We Were Never Here.

“A fresh and sexy ride, perfect for reading poolside.”—People (Best New Book)


“Sexy, atmospheric, deliciously creepy, and ingeniously plotted: the best kind of up-all-night page-turner.”—Lucy Foley, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Paris Apartment and The Guest List


A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: Elle, PopSugar, Harper’s Bazaar, Marie Claire, CrimeReads


Kelly’s new life in Philadelphia has turned into a nightmare: She’s friendless and jobless, and the lockdown has her trapped in a tiny apartment with the man she gave up everything for, who’s just called off their wedding. The only bright spot is her newly rekindled friendship with her childhood friend Sabrina—now a glamorous bestselling author with a handsome, high-powered husband.

When Sabrina and Nathan offer Kelly an escape hatch, volunteering the spare room of their remote Virginia mansion, she jumps at the chance to run away from her old life. There, Kelly secretly finds herself falling for both her enchanting hosts—until one night, a wild and unexpected threesome leads the couple to open their marriage for her.

At first, Kelly loves being part of this risqué new world. But when she discovers that the last woman they invited into their marriage is missing, she starts to wonder if they could be dangerous . . . and if she might be next.

Packed with Andrea Bartz’s signature tension, twists, and toxic relationships, The Spare Room marks an edgy, boundary-pushing new direction from the “master of the ‘feminist thriller’” (Los Angeles Times).

Unfortunately, the build up to the story and how it ended was not rewarding. Unlike other thrillers, the characters and the plot twist in this book felt random and poorly written.

Uninteresting twist of events

This one was just okay. I got tired of the endless, repetitive descriptions of colour and texture and emotions. It felt like the author was leaning too much on them and lacking in making the characters likeable and believable. The twist wasn’t mind blowing and I didn’t really care what happened to anyone in the book.

Too many similes

I really wanted to like this book but it was such a struggle to get through. The main character is very unlikable and the story is extremely slow.

Hard to get through

Frustrating character in Kelly. The storyline far too long.
Fabulous voice performance from the narrator.

Enough Already

Quite simply this was not good! It had potential and started off strong but then it just fell apart and I mean tatters on the floor level of fell apart! It just got repetitive, the main character was as a complete idiot, it was predictable and I thought it would have been more atmospheric if different POV’s were present. Also, I can deal with far fetched in fiction but this was just too far gone and not well executed. I think Andrea Bartz and I just don’t click so that will be the end for me. So sorry I wasted a credit!

Wasted credits make me sad☹️
