Book Blurb

Eve has a good life. She gets up each day, gets a kiss from her husband Nate, and heads off to teach math at the local high school. All is as it should be. Except¿

Last year, Caseham High was rocked by a scandal, with one student, Addie, at its center. And this year, Eve is dismayed to find the girl in her class.

Addie can't be trusted. She lies. She hurts people. She destroys lives. At least, that's what everyone says.

But nobody knows the real Addie. Nobody knows the secrets that could destroy her. And Addie will do anything to keep it quiet.

My Opinion

This story was so typical of Freida McFadden. I loved the twists and the tension. Couldn't put the book down for long - you might say I really enjoyed reading it. There are not too many main characters, and the chapters are short, so it's a book you can easily read in a short but intense time.

You should be aware that the story contains some really dark themes. If you feel triggered by abuse of power and sexual abuse of minors, this story might be one to skip for you.

Rating

I really enjoyed reading "The Teacher" therefore I'm rating the book 4 out of 5 Stars.
