The Housemaid by Freida McFadden
Okay so I’m looking for people’s opinions on here that have read “The Housemaid”, I believe there one, maybe 2 more books that possibly follow this story?? I’m not sure I haven’t really investigated. I plan on seeing the movie this weekend, I wanted to finish the book before I saw the movie. Mostly because one girl I follow on Instagram who creates a lot of content about books said reading the book before seeing the movie is a good idea, she recommended because she read the book and saw the movie and said it was an amazing book to movie adaptation.
So my question is, if the next book(s) follow this story do we think they will make movies for other books in this series?? And if so should I wait and read them until close to the movie comes out so they are fresh in my mind? Or do I just read them now?
Also since Freida McFadden seems to be a popular author what other books by her should I read since I really really enjoyed “The Housemaid”???? This is the first book I’ve read by her so I’ve never read any of her other book & figured I’d just see what people say. Please let me know!!!

Having recently finished reading The Housemaid by Freida McFadden myself, I can say it’s a gripping psychological thriller that keeps you turning pages with its unexpected twists. One thing I really appreciated was how McFadden builds her characters and crafts suspense that feels realistic yet thrilling. Regarding your questions about sequels or related books, The Housemaid appears to be a standalone novel. While there isn't an official series that continues its story, McFadden has written several other stand-alone thrillers that share similarly intriguing and fast-paced narratives. I’d recommend checking out her books like The Good Sister or The Perfect Stranger if you enjoyed the tension and pacing in The Housemaid. About the movie adaptation coming soon, I agree with the advice from many book lovers to read the book before watching the film. This way, you get the full depth of the story and characters as originally conceived, and can appreciate changes or interpretations in the movie. Since it’s a highly acclaimed adaptation, it should be a fascinating experience to compare both. If additional adaptations or sequels were to be made, I would personally suggest reading any potential follow-up novels close to when their films release. That way the plot and details remain fresh. However, since no direct continuations are confirmed, you can enjoy exploring McFadden’s other standalone stories at your leisure. In summary, The Housemaid is a standout novel on its own, soon to reach a wider audience through cinema. For fans eager to explore more, diving into McFadden’s other psychological thrillers offers similarly addictive reading experiences. It’s exciting to see popular book-to-movie adaptations bringing these suspenseful tales to life!
