Rezension von Christina Sharp Objects (Cry Baby) ist ein düsterer und extrem spannender Thriller mit einer verstörenden Familiengeschichte. Das Buch schafft eine bedrückende Atmosphäre und zeigt nach und nach, wie kaputt die Beziehungen innerhalb der Familie wirklich sind. Gerade diese psychologischen Abgründe machen die Geschichte so fesselnd und gleichzeitig erschreckend. Besonders stark ist der Plot Twist am Ende – unerwartet und gut umgesetzt. Ein spannendes, intensives Buch, das einen auch nach dem Lesen noch beschäftigt.
Rezension von Nina PhillipsPretty predictable end for me. The beginning felt really unnecessary and off-topic at first but it tied things together and helped wrap everything up nicely. I think I hated every character in this story, except our MC's boss and his wife.

Rezension von Breanna BoothI kind of saw the outcoming but not at the same time. I love the dark pieces of the main character, kept me interested and wanting to read further into what she goes through. The insight to how important childhood is was done well.
Rezension von AlinareadsVery good thriller with an ending that left me thinking about it for a long time after finishing this book. It’s verry dark, so better check trigger warnings
