Booked & Bitter

Attics, Revenge and Chaos

Abbey, Bailey, Krys & Mandy Season 1 Episode 4

Beware - spoiler & language alert ◡̈ 

 On this episode, the ladies tackle The Housemaid by Freida McFadden — scrubbing through its secrets, lies, and a few questionable life choices. They don’t just chat plot; they pick apart messy character dynamics, moral gray zones, and why thrillers keep dangling the promise of justice we’re not sure we actually get.

The conversation careens from bookish theft (plot or otherwise) to the minefield of reader triggers, the fine art of rating a book without starting a brawl, and whether cheating in fiction is ever excusable.

Of course, there’s plenty of side‑eye for social media “book talk,” spoiler sins, and the eternal struggle between honesty and diplomacy in reviews. It’s sharp, funny, and just the right amount of petty — a literary therapy session wrapped in snark and sprinkled with chaos.
