Lesson #1: Trust no one.

Eve has a good life. She wakes up each day, kisses her husband Nate, and heads off to teach math at the local high school. All is as it should be. Except…

Last year, Caseham High was rocked by a scandal involving a student-teacher affair, with one student, Addie, at its center. But Eve knows there is far more to these ugly rumors than meets the eye.

Addie can’t be trusted. She lies. She hurts people. She destroys lives. At least, that’s what everyone says.

But nobody knows the real Addie. Nobody knows the secrets that could destroy her. And Addie will do anything to keep it quiet…

From the New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden comes a chilling story of twisted secrets and long-awaited revenge.

The Teacher by Frida McFadden Book Review

“The Teacher” by Frida McFadden is the second book I’ve read by her. Initially, I vowed not to read her novels because I felt she borrowed too much from popular authors, with some of her books drawing comparisons to titles like “Verity” and “The Last Mrs. Parrish.” Despite my reservations, I decided to give this book a try and found it to be okay.

I didn’t like the main character, Eve. Her resentment was confusing because the book didn’t explain the reasons behind it clearly. When it was explained, it wasn’t detailed enough. I also wish the story had revealed what happened with the other teacher earlier to add more depth to the plot.

If you’re looking for a “teacher-student” book suggestion, I would recommend “My Dark Vanessa” by Kate Elizabeth Russell.

You like spending time with your books more than you like spending time with me. I don’t think it was true, but if it was, could anyone blame her?
