Book Review: Don't Let Him In by Lisa Jewell
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Lisa Jewell has officially earned a permanent spot on my must-read list. The moment I heard she had a new release, Don't Let Him In, I knew I had to dive in—and wow, what a ride.
Told through multiple POVs, this story unravels like a slow-burning fuse leading to an explosive reveal. At the center is a man who seems flawless on the surface: charming, successful, and heartbreakingly handsome. But Jewell masterfully reminds us that when something—or someone—seems too good to be true, it probably is.
The tension builds with delicious precision. It’s like watching a car crash in slow motion—you know disaster is coming, but you can’t look away. Nina, Martha, and Ash are all drawn into his orbit, and the men—Alistair, Nick, and others—are barreling toward a collision of atomic proportions.
This man has it all: the charisma, the disarming smile, the tragic backstory that makes women say, “Oh, bless your heart.” He’s the kind of guy who makes you feel seen, heard, and safe—until he disappears for days with vague excuses and no trace of income from his so-called “work.” That’s when the cracks begin to show.
And then there’s Ash—Nina’s daughter and the true MVP of this story. She’s not buying the act, and when she starts digging, the secrets she uncovers are chilling. Watching her piece together the truth had me cheering out loud. Her determination and grit give this thriller its emotional punch.
Don't Let Him In is a twisty, addictive page-turner that will keep you up late and leave you breathless. Jewell delivers suspense with heart, and this one is not to be missed.
Huge thanks to NetGalley and Atria Books for the chance to read this electrifying thriller. Buckle up—this one’s a wild ride.
