I've just finished this one. Has anyone read it? What did you think?

There's a sequel coming out in August.

It sounds an interesting book. I recognised her name and see she wrote Ralph's Party, which I loved, so this genre is very different to that.

Loved it, I usually love her books but I've got The House We Grew up in and it's like wading through tar ...maybe it's just too hot for reading

Ooo can’t wait!

The Family Remains follows the story of the children after they left. Really gripping.

Loved this book. My dd has just finished it and loved it as well. Excited there’s a sequel. Didn’t know this.

Lisa Jewell is by far my favourite author and I loved The Family Upstairs. Because I'm on Netgalley I also received an early Kindle copy of the sequel and it was brilliant.

The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell was one of my favorites so far this year. I've read several of her other books, and for me, this one is the best yet. I devoured the book in two chunks, one larger read in the afternoon and the other shortly before bed. I couldn't fall asleep for at least an hour as my mind continued to process everything that had happened in the complicated and messy (in a good way) tale.

I’ve only just started reading Lisa Jewell so it’s good to hear

Loved it, I’ve also been very lucky and got a review copy of The Family Remains and it doesn’t disappoint!
