The Boy At The Door by Alex Dahl review

The Boy at the DoorThe Boy at the Door by Alex Dahl
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Cecilia Wilborg has it all--a loving husband, two beautiful daughters, and a gorgeous home in an affluent Norwegian suburb. And she works hard to keep it all together. Too hard...

There is no room for mistakes in her life. Even taking home a little boy whose parents forgot to pick him up at the pool can put a crimp in Cecilia's carefully planned schedule. Especially when she arrives at the address she was given
and finds an empty, abandoned house...

There's nothing for Cecilia to do but to take the boy home with her, never realizing that soon his quiet presence and knowing eyes will trigger unwelcome memories from her past--and unravel her meticulously crafted life...

I felt this book was slow for me. I couldn't connect with any of the characters. I did not feel bad for Cecilia at all. Everything that ever comes out of her mouth is lies. One lie leads to more. If she had been upfront and honest at the first mistake then her life would have been way better. The only ones I felt bad for were the children.
