The Waiting Room | Emily Bleeker
19 posts | 16 read | 20 to read
From the bestselling author of When I'm Gone and Working Fire comes a gripping novel about a mother, her missing daughter, and the dark secrets that engulf them. Ever since her husband's death collided with the birth of her daughter, postpartum depression has taken hold of Veronica Shelton. She can't sleep, can't work, and can't bear to touch her beautiful baby girl. Her emotional state is whispering lies in Veronica's ear: You're a bad mother. Your baby would be better off without you. But not everything can be reasoned away by Veronica's despair. Can it? After all, the break-in at her house happened. The disturbing sketches she found in her studio are real. So is the fear for her daughter's safety--especially when Veronica comes home to a cold, silent nursery and a missing baby. As she turns from victim into primary suspect, Veronica realizes that only she can find her daughter. Authorities aren't helping. They're only watching. Veronica's concerned mother has suddenly vanished from her life. And a new friend seems to be keeping secrets from her too. Now, reality is waiting for Veronica in a dark place--because someone's mind games have only just begun.

This book was f@&?$/@ fantastic! Even if I didn‘t have a limited amount of time to read it, I would have still devoured it. So so clever and detailed. Fabulous psych thriller. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Recommends-day! So this was not what I expected and the story behind everything sort of blew me away. It did start off a bit slow, but I recommend pushing through as it‘s worth it!
I really like Emily Bleeker. 😁

This story started off slow, which is why is took so long to finish, but this psychological thriller won me over in the end. Veronica has lost her husband and now her baby has gone missing and she's taking it into her own hands to get her back. The story is at times intense and at times somber and deals with loss and motherhood. I found a few things to be unlikely, but overall it was a good read.

Doing a little bit of reading before heading out to work. I did not get nearly as much reading done as I was hoping to do over the weekend. Currently reading The Waiting Room by Emily Bleeker, which I received via Goodreads, but I believe it's available on KU as well.

Bklover I wish I was a morning person! I never was a read-before-work person. I was just lucky to get there on time. What a beautiful view you have to read by! Gorgeous ❤️ 6y
KrystleTheBookSlayer @Bklover Thanks, it's a beautiful morning! Usually I don't read much in the morning either, but I was actually fairly mentally awake and I had some strong coffee. My shift doesn't start until later in the morning, which helps too! 😊 6y

When you finally decided to get the oil change that you have been putting off and there is a line it makes you glad you never leave home without a book!
