The Skylight By Louise Candlish

The Skylight By Louise Candlish


They can’t see her, but she can see them…

Simone has a secret. She likes to stand at her bathroom window and spy on the couple downstairs through their kitchen skylight. She knows what they eat for breakfast and who they’ve got over for dinner. She knows what mood they’re in before they even step out the door. There’s nothing wrong with looking, is there?

Until one day Simone sees something through the skylight she is not expecting. Something that upsets her so much she begins to plot a terrible crime…

My Thoughts:

This is one of the quick reads books, it is a short story that is less than 100 pages. I loved it, I am a big fan of Louise’s books anyways so once I got my copy I had to read it straight away and it took me less than an hour but it certainly packed a punch. I didn’t realise short stories could be so good. Simone can see into her neighbours downstairs but she is the only one who knows this, they can’t see her but she can see them. When one day she sees something that shocks her, she starts to plan something that will change everyone’s lives all together. There are a couple of twists and turns that I was not expecting and the ending was brilliant. I will definitely be buying the rest of the books.
