Critic reviews

"A wonderfully addictive book with virtuoso plotting and characters - for anyone who loved The Girl on the Train, it's a must read." (Rosamund Lupton, author of Sister and The Quality of Silence)

"With tightly drawn characters, a fascinating storyline and absolutely exquiite narration, The Perfect Girl is sure to keep readers up all night. Gilly Macmillan proves once again to be a master of the written word and is quickly becoming one of my go-to authors. Literary suspense at its finest." (Mary Kubica, author of The Good Girl and Pretty Baby)

Engrossing but ultimately disappointing

Really compelling story that makes it hard to stop listening, but a weak ending that that leaves too many things unresolved

A VERY Disappointing second novel

What would have made The Perfect Girl better?

Let's see- some suspense, excitement, characters with personality., a storyline ..for starters.

What was most disappointing about Gilly Macmillan’s story?

I knew within the first few chapters exactly how the story would play out. After her brilliant first novel, Ms. Macmillan should be ashamed to have given us this ridiculous, boring..and I MEAN boring..novel. I kept listening just to see if my predictions were right, they all were.
Characters were not likeable with one exception, and he plays a minor role.

Which character – as performed by Penelope Rawlins and Dugald Bruce-Lockhart – was your favorite?

Richard.

What character would you cut from The Perfect Girl?

Everyone except for Richard and the baby.

Any additional comments?

The narration was amazing. The book is horrible. Nine hours wasted.
