The Maid by Nita Prose
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I’ve wanted to read this book for a while but it was nothing like I imagined.
Molly the Maid is a kind, cheerful lady who is always ready to help those around her. But when she finds a dead body in one of the rooms she’s cleaning, Molly doesn’t realize that she is in danger.
While this book made it clear that Molly is different, it annoyed me that she didn’t realize at first that she would be considered a suspect for murder.
There were a few times I had to put the book down and just scream.
Basically this is a story about a kind-hearted soul who is just too optimistic to realize that there are bad things and bad people in the world. (Kinda felt like I could relate).
This was a really heartwarming read once I got past being mad at Molly. I have never had a mystery novel leaving me feeling all warm and gooey but this one did. I especially enjoyed the little twist at the end. It seemed overdone but by that time I was craving a little drama.
This isn’t the book for you if you’re looking for a hardcore thriller or suspense novel. But if you have a few hours to kill and want to escape into a book, I definitely suggest this one.
I was not expecting to grow attached to Molly but I did.
