The Housemaid's Wedding: A Short Story

The Housemaid’s Wedding was a great, short read and I’m glad it exists as a companion to the series. It was nice to return to these characters without committing to a full book, and the story itself was engaging and easy to get through. While this novella can be read after book three and still make sense, I really think it works best only between book two and book three. The timeline, character dynamics, and emotional beats fit much more naturally there. Reading it later does not ruin anything, but it does lessen the impact since you already know where things end up. Overall, it’s a solid addition to the series and worth reading. Just be mindful of the order if you want the best experience.

While reading this book, I was thinking to myself what kind of twist can the author possibly put in so few pages as McFadden likes to take time building up the suspense for the final showdown! But I was very wrong! Not only the twist was pretty good but there was an intense scare factor throughout the story! I am happy I did not skip this novella!

This short and sweet story was interesting to say the least. It was fun diving back into this world and sort of getting a glimpse into the gap between Housemaid’s Secret and The Housemaid’s Watching. I’m being so real with you, and I’m a big fan of this series. If you were fine with ending your reading at the Housemaid’s secret and didn’t want to continue on. I’d say that that would be a fine stopping point. Even though I did really like The Housemaid’s Watching. I don’t really think this one is necessary. Unless you absolutely love Millie’s story and want to get every single moment with Millie and Enzo. This book is certainly for the hardcore fans of this series. I’m glad I read it and got to check off yet another book from McFadden! Getting closer and closer to finishing off her backlog. 🖤

I love the Housemaids series and this little short story was great ! Loved it !

Was a fast read, good addition to the Housemaid series

This was too drawn out and not a surprising plot at all. Some of the things that happened were too straightforward. It seemed like it was going to end in a surprise, but did not.

Like the last two Housemaid books this wedding short story does fill the gap between the 2nd book and the 3rd book. I had start reading book 3 then realized I must have missed something?? Yes, this book fills the gap and is quite the quick read. Now I can go back to book 3 that started out as quickly as the first two did. I am not a reader but found these first 3 books at Costco lying in an area off the beaten path. I never see books at Costco any longer so I snatched them up. I’m glad I did! Found the Wedding book on Amazon. Hope this review helps. Back to book 3 I go! ☺️

Great short story but left me wanting more to Millie's story.
