I thought the book started very slowly but it picked up and then it became a page turner. Dr. Anna Fox is a child Psychologist who, as a result of some severe trauma becomes agoraphobic, depressed and prone to panic attacks. She sits at her window and watches the neighbors, sometimes with her camera. Most of the time this is a harmless pastime till one day she sees what appears to be a murder. Unfortunately no one believes her and we can see that when someone is mentally ill their word is not worth much. I as a reader, wanted to believe Anna and was rooting for her. Will she be able to prove what she saw? There are a lot of twists and turns and the ultimate twist is worth waiting for.

Excellent! A psychological thriller about a reclusive young woman trying to make sense of what she is seeing through the lens of her Nikon camera that she uses to look out of her window.
Lots of twists and turns! The author does a really good job touching on the real vs the fictitious, trauma, and life as a recluse.

Taking the best twists of Gone Girl and adding the self sabotaging tendencies of The Girl on the Train when added together, you will get the fast paced page turner of a mystery, that is The Woman in the Window by AJ Finn. The Woman in the Window hooks the reader right away with the short chapters and the self loathing and often times self sabotaging main character of Anna. I found myself often frustrated with Anna who is an agoraphobic, someone who is afraid to go out in the outside world. Anna is a child phycologist and should know that mixing alcohol with heavily prescribed medicine is a big NO NO. But that doesn't stop her from doing just that, while also spying on her neighbors. The Woman in the Window is packed with twists from the begging to the very end. You defiantly get Gone Girl and The woman on the Train vibes with this book, but it still holds its own with those two powerhouse books. With short chapters that leave the reader full of suspense, I found myself reading upwards of a hundred pages at a time. If you are looking for a good mystery, The Woman in the Window will leave you satisfied

A great read with strong character and initiating plot. Recommend this book.

Karol and I loved it.

Fantastic! I couldn't tell what was real and what wasn't.

A well-done thriller where it is hard to tell what is real and what is not. I loved how it unfolded a little at a time and out of nowhere, unexpected truths were revealed. I didn't see the end coming, which made the climax great. The author did a super job of shaping the main character and letting us get to know her. The book also had nice short chapters, which I appreciated, so that I could read little bits when I had time. I would recommend this one.

Author takes too much time and space setting things up. Amusing and intriguing at first, but soon seems too clever, too detailed for over half the book until the story starts. It is suspenseful, finally. Gaps in logic, like who the boy's father is, are frustrating.

Psychologist Anna Fox lives alone in New York, but hasn't been outside her home for ten months. She has become agoraphobic. Separated from her husband and daughter, Anna occupies her time by drinking too much, watching old movies, helping people on the Agora website, and playing chess online. Another way she spends her time is watching the houses and the people in them who live across the street. One night, she witnesses what she thinks is a murder, but when she tries to report it to the police, there is no body and nobody will admit that the woman ever existed.

The Woman in the Window is very reminiscent of the thriller, Rear Window. Anna is not a very likable character because of all the poor choices that she makes. There are some twists in the story, but most are very predictable, and the first half of the book is very slow. Overall, The Woman in the Window is a disappointment.
