Neighborly: A Novel

Product Information

Same thoughts over and over from the narrator about her family, problems, love for them, her deep psychological understanding of people and events. Unfortunately, all was revealed (and resolved) too fast and too conveniently, which really ruined it for me. As suspicious as she is of every smiling face and as terrified as she’s become of being found out, Kat is still unprepared for the sharp turn that lies just ahead of her on Bayberry Lane. The book is paced perfectly and when the first reveal hits, even if you sense it coming, its still deliciously naughty and thrilling!

She brought some sort of gray looking muffins, and really, it was only to invite my boys to attend her church's vacation bible school. 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. 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. This book is really not that good, but I'm giving it three stars because I believe the author achieved what she was aiming for - an enjoyable thriller with a twisted Desperate Housewives vibe.

Though there's a lot of talk about sex, there's only one barely steamy scene, and it's within the bonds of holy matrimony, so yawn .

If topics such as open marriages/partner swapping offend you, you may want to miss this one, as several reviewers seem to have been put off by some of the content.When the neighbors who seemed so perfect reveal their open secret, the menace moves beyond mean notes. 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! As suspicious as she is of every smiling face and as terrified as shes become of being found out, Kat is still unprepared for the sharp turn that lies just ahead of her on Bayberry Lane. Monago continues to keep the identity of the person undercover, but it becomes really easy to work out who they are, and so even that last reveal becomes dulled by the long drawn out process of officially finding out who they are. From a threatening note found outside their door to deep, rather disturbing secrets, Kat instantly becomes extremely worried.

Neighborly by Ellie Monago | Goodreads

Soon someone is leaving disturbing notes, and it turns out the "neighborhood association" has some pretty swinging ideas of what constitutes neighborly love.she is a thirty something woman struggling with her temporary stay at home mom role in her home in a exclusive neighborhood.

Neighbourly - where businesses help local good causes

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.

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! The problem I had with the book is the main character Kat is really unlikeable but since she is a victim you feel bad for not liking her. The reviews I had read before picking this book up were tentative but ultimately I have to side with more with the lower end of the review scale. The neighborhood is a total swinger’s colony, and Kat is completely insecure, while Doug seems to be contemplating his options. Great literature, it's not, but it's something of a page-turner that I probably would have finished in one sitting had time allowed.
