Neighborly: A Novel

Product Information

Unless time was moving super quickly in the book without me realising, Sadie (the child) would begin to cry (as babies do) and within 3 minutes Kat would be saying “I’m such a bad mom! As mentioned before, this really is one of those ‘throwaway thrillers’, I can assure you I will have forgotten the story or the characters within a few months, even though I semi-enjoyed it while reading. Three layers of flavors infused with chicken, egg, and almonds melt on my tongue, the finish topped off with whispers of orange blossom, saffron, ginger, cumin, and turmeric.

Her past walks along side her every day in secret shame and she’s terrified someone will discover it.

Neighborly by Monago Ellie - AbeBooks

Kat her husband Doug and baby daughter, Sadie, move to the perfect neighborhood on the perfect block with the most wonderfulest perfectest neighbors ever! I don't believe the person killed was really all that bad, given how she was portrayed in the rest of the book. All of the residents seem happy and take such an interest in each other's lives--even a "girls night out" which Kat is invited to and is glad to be included in this elite group, until they mention the Spreadsheet!After putting all of the pieces together Kat confronts her tormenter/s and tries to make a citizens arrest. Life in her new neighborhood isn't that perfect, someone is leaving her threatening notes and it turns out her neighbors are a bunch of creepy swingers who want Kat and Doug as fresh meat for their sex sandwiches or whatever it is that swingers do with fresh meat. Dust Jackets are not guaranteed and when still present, they will have various degrees of tear and damage.

So often in these ‘throwaway thrillers’ (I’m going to copyright that phrase) the husband is an arse, even if he doesn’t end up being the bad guy (and I’m not saying he is or isn’t in this, I’m just saying that as a example). But there is so much more than meets the eye and I had to take notes to keep track of all the great twists and turns!I hadn't read any reviews before starting this book, but other readers commented on the f-bombs and explicit sex scenes, so I'm stopping now. Not only that the person behind the notes steps up and that scenario is detailed through another perspective.

Neighborly: A Novel - Kindle edition by Monago, Ellie

The neighborhood is a total swinger’s colony, and Kat is completely insecure, while Doug seems to be contemplating his options. In a neighborhood that just recently finished reading Fifty Shades of Grey and then discovered fetlife and google sheets, one woman must confront her past and being a new mother and postpartum depression and moving into a tiny house and fitting into the perfect neighborhood, all while learning how social media works. So Kat and Doug are super excited to move into the coveted neighborhood of Aurora Village, AKA the AV. The story has an unreliable narrator, this wasn't a term I was aware of until I started watching Westworld. There are many likable characters and different personalities coexisting in Neighborly but they are very easy to keep track of as the character development by Ms.

There's something odd about the street and the inhabitants but this idea initially comes from Kat who isn't the most reliable of sources. Also, they are the new parents of Sadie and this brings on challenges of its own, including the distance that has developed between Kat and Doug. Literal LOL at the negative reviews based solely on the fact that this story involves swinging, though. Used books have different signs of use and might not include supplemental materials such as CDs, Dvds, Access Codes, charts or any other extra material. However, there are moments in the story where I felt a pang of sympathy for her, and for that reason she isn’t the least likable character in the whole book.

The issues are resolved so quickly and in such an unbelievable manner, it spoilt the rest of the book for me. This story is packed with thrill and mystery, it moves from one to the next with barely a breather in between. In Dec of 2016 a book titled The Missing by Caroline Eriksson was one of the Kindle Firsts for the month.

Minutes from the city, affluent without pretension, low crime with a friendly vibe—it’s everything Kat never had, and that she’s determined to provide for her infant daughter. I really lime this author's ability to tell a story about people living in a block of houses who seem so perfect yet are anything but.
