Sunday Book Club: Queen Bee, Jane Fallon

Every Sunday we are taking a look at the world of books. I read a lot and always want to share my opinions on what I read, so I thought it would be fun to write reviews. Today we are looking at a book about being the Queen out of a lot of females…

Queen Bee (2020)

Jane Fallon


Synopsis

Welcome to The Close – a beautiful street of mansions, where gorgeous Stella is the indisputable Queen Bee . . .

It is here that Laura, seeking peace and privacy after her marriage falls apart, rents a tiny studio. Unfortunately, her arrival upsets suspicious Stella – who fears Laura has designs on her fiance, Al.

When Laura stumbles on the big secret Al is hiding, suddenly Stella’s perfectly controlled world, and Laura’s future, are threatened.

Taking a chance on beating Al at his own twisted game, these two former strangers are fast becoming friends.

But has Laura forgotten that revenge always comes with a sting in the tail?

Positive Points

This is a great read, right from the start you find yourself constantly turning the pages to see what happens in the book as the plot keeps developing fast. It ends up being a story that you do not expect which is fantastic.


Negative Points

It feels like the book ends quite quickly and doesn’t take time to breath.


Overall Review

It is a fun book and if you are looking for escapism for a holiday or just a read then this is a book for you. Be prepared that the end of the book feels a bit quick but do not allow it to out you off this book as its an interesting one.
