With the exception of a couple of books, I’ve been a huge McFadden fan and certainly think she deserves the stratospheric success she’s achieved. Unfortunately, I wasn’t so taken with The Crash. The dual narrative of Polly and Tegan meant that sections of the book dragged because the same story was told twice and I found Tegan to be a frustrating character, jumping to naïve conclusions. Although there were twists towards the end, it didn’t have me racing to finish the book. I listened to the audiobook and enjoyed the narration. If you’re new to McFadden, I thoroughly recommend The Housemaid and The Boyfriend. I thought both of these were truly excellent psychological thrillers.
