ARC/Blog Tour : The Wrong Family by Tarryn Fisher

by - Tuesday, December 29, 2020


From the author of the instant New York Times bestseller The Wives comes another twisted psychological thriller guaranteed to turn your world upside down.

Have you ever been wrong about someone?

Juno was wrong about Winnie Crouch.

Before moving in with the Crouch family, Juno thought Winnie and her husband, Nigel, had the perfect marriage, the perfect son—the perfect life. Only now that she’s living in their beautiful house, she sees the cracks in the crumbling facade are too deep to ignore.

Still, she isn’t one to judge. After her grim diagnosis, the retired therapist simply wants a place to live out the rest of her days in peace. But that peace is shattered the day Juno overhears a chilling conversation between Winnie and Nigel…

She shouldn’t get involved.

She really shouldn’t.

But this could be her chance to make a few things right.

Because if you thought Juno didn’t have a secret of her own, then you were wrong about her, too.

From the wickedly dark mind of bestselling author Tarryn Fisher, The Wrong Family is a taut new thriller that’s riddled with twists in all the right places.

Can we say Queen of Dysfunctional Families?! Another hit from Fisher!

Tarryn's expressions have that somethin' somethin' that never fail to beguile me. Fuck, to spend even a few minutes in her mind.

Fisher's words pulled me in and they held me captivated. Her brand of dysfunction absolutely addicting. The Wrong Family completely and utterly wrapped me up with its ambiguous and maladjusted characters. So much absolute, raw emotions and gritty detail in one book. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. I had to see what fucked-upness would come at me next. I had to see if this family would break more than they already were or if they'd come out victorious. I had to see if any of them were redeemable/likable. I had to see if they would break me right along with them.

Samuel was the only character I felt any compassion for on a consistent basis. The others got the justice they deserved. One in particular. Oh Dakota... welcome to hell, you sick demented douchecanoe. Winnie and Juno, I can't even with the two of you. If only you minded your own business. However, I feel you two did redeem yourselves. And Nigel, I just didn't really care one way or another what your outcome was. Sorry. Not sorry.

Any who, this family didn't break me. Not like I was hoping for. Yes, I'm fucked up like that. I thrive off dark and depraved. And this one didn't quite reach the marker. I needed just a bit more pull. Which is the reason for the 4 star rating.

I will say, I read enough psychological thrillers I can usually see the twists coming a mile away. That wasn't the case with The Wrong Family. Every time I thought I had it all figure out Tarryn threw in an unexpected monkey wrench, taking a complete 180 from where my brain was headed. This made me the most excited; I absolutely adore when a book can throw me for a loop.

To say I got more then I bargained for is an understatement. I didn't know what I expected when I dived in. But it definitely wasn't that, especially the epilogue!
