About this listen
The author of the best-selling novel The Party - lauded as “tense and riveting” by New York Times best-selling author Megan Miranda - returns with a chilling new domestic drama about two women whose deep friendship is threatened by dark, long-buried secrets.
Frances Metcalfe is struggling to stay afloat.
A stay-at-home mom whose troubled son is her full-time job, she thought that the day he got accepted into the elite Forrester Academy would be the day she started living her life. Overweight, insecure, and lonely, she is desperate to fit into Forrester’s world. But after a disturbing incident at the school leads the other children and their families to ostracize the Metcalfes, she feels more alone than ever before.
Until she meets Kate Randolph.
Kate is everything Frances is not: beautiful, wealthy, powerful, and confident. And for some reason, she’s not interested in being friends with any of the other Forrester moms - only Frances. As the two bond over their disdain of the Forrester snobs and the fierce love they have for their sons, a startling secret threatens to tear them apart...because one of these women is not who she seems. Her real name is Amber Kunik. And she’s a murderer.
In her masterful follow-up to The Party, Robyn Harding spins a web of lies, deceit, and betrayal, asking the question: Can people ever change? And even if they can, is it possible to forgive the past?

Story
Thomas and Viv Adler are the envy of their neighbors: attractive, successful, with well-mannered children and a beautifully restored home. Until one morning, when they wake up to find their porch has been pelted with eggs. It’s a prank, Thomas insists; the work of a few out-of-control kids. But when a smoke bomb is tossed on their front lawn, and their car’s tires are punctured, the family begins to worry. Surveillance cameras show nothing but grainy images of shadowy figures in hoodies.

Low Morrison is not your average teen. You could blame her hippie parents or her looming height or her dreary, isolated hometown on an island in the Pacific Northwest. But whatever the reason, Low just doesn’t fit in - and neither does Freya, a once-famous social media influencer who now owns the pottery studio in town. After signing up for a class, Low quickly falls under Freya’s spell. And Freya, buoyed by Low’s adoration, is compelled to share her darkest secrets and deepest desires. Finally, both feel a sense of belonging...that is, until Jamie walks through the studio door.

Of course, I’m not going to murder her in the night. I need my laptop back first. That’s the whole point of making friends with Emily Harper, author of the hugely successful novel Diary of an Octopus. So I could get into her apartment and take back what’s mine. Emily doesn’t know who I really am. She thinks I’m her biggest fan, her new best friend who happens to need a place to stay for a few days. She doesn’t realize the laptop she found—and took—from a busy airport almost two years ago was mine. I don’t care about the laptop, just what's on it: my diary.

UrbanMyth: It was lauded as an alternative to the performative, show-your-best-self platforms—an anonymous discussion board grouped by zip code. The residents of Manhattan’s exclusive Upper East Side disclosed it all, things they would never share with their friends or their spouses: secret bank accounts, steamy affairs, tidbits of juicy gossip. So when a “hacktivist” group breaks into the forum and exposes the real identity of each poster, the repercussions echo down Park Avenue with a force that none could have anticipated.

Slow, anti-climactic ending
The story was slow to build. The middle was good, got my interest and I wanted to see what was going to happen. However, found the ending boring.
Performance voices were childish.

Her Pretty Face focuses on the issues of children and the problems these children face when their mothers carry secrets.
Multiple points of view: Frances. Daisy. DJ
Frances is married to Jason. They have an eleven year old son named Marcus. Marcus is has behavioral issues. Frances clings to self doubt as a stay-at-home mother. Frances voice in the story reveals an unstable woman. She’s looking for a friend who doesn’t judge her for Marcus’s behavioral issues.
Daisy is Kate and Robert’s fourteen year old daughter. Daisy and Kate have a strained relationship. Kate behaves indifferent towards her while her father is distant. She’s the product of a cold useless home. Daisy’s voice in the story reveals a young reckless young teenager. She purposely pushes people away. However, she’s looking for someone to care about her.
DJ’s sister was murdered. His voice in the story is to bring awareness regarding the case of his sister who was murdered and raped by Shane Nelson.
This is my second read by Robyn Harding. Her writing voice is informative and intriguing. My first read was My Perfect Family. RH kept me guessing the entire time. With three narratives I wasn’t sure what she was cooking up. With each chapter the reader delves deeper into the lives of these three characters.
Narrators:
Rebekkah Ross
Cassandra Campbell
Kirby Hayborne
I’m not familiar with any of these three narrators. I can deduce that Kirby was the voice of DJ. The other two women I’m not sure which was performing for Frances or Daisy.
This was an unabridged audiobook. I listened using the audible app at 2X the speed.

Get this one.
This is my second book by this author. I love how the twists keep coming after you think you have it figured out. She’s definitely worth the listen.

Well Written
Well crafted mystery that kept me guessing but didn’t pander to the typical formula of a big showdown with just one loser. Amazing narration. Was missing some unknown element for me but I do recommend it.
I’m at the point though that Cassandra Campbell’s amazing voice is on too many audiobooks. Hard to get into a new character when it’s always her.

Compelling
4 STARS
Robyn Harding’s unputdownable books keep me turning the pages, eager to find out what happen next. HER PRETTY FACE grabbed me from page one, a newspaper article about the disappearance of a fifteen-year-old girl. One of the murderers, Amber Kunik, may have gotten off by blaming her abusive boyfriend. Flash forward twenty some years and Amber is now living as either malcontent Frances or her only friend, gorgeous housewife Kate. Both women have secret pasts. Both may be killers. Or neither may be.
Naming a genre for HER PRETTY FACE is difficult, because it’s not an edge-of-your-seat thriller, but a slow burn mystery where the answers are less the payoff for story than the over all story.
Told from the third person points of view of Frances, Daisy (Kate’s teenage daughter) and DJ (the murder victim’s younger brother) the timeline shifts from past to present as the answers become clearer.
Frances was complex, messy, needy and unlikable and at times unsympathetic. She was often her own worst obstacle, and her son’s. I couldn’t figure out what her husband saw in her. By the end of the book my thoughts about her changed dramatically. Young Daisy was so reckless, I wasn’t certain she would survive. My biggest sympathies were saved for DJ, a secondary victim of his sister’s murder and parents’ emotional collapse. Kate was an enigma, I was certain very different than the parts of her she showed the world.
HER PRETTY FACE will hold your interest and keep you thinking after the end.

Decent
Wasn’t the best or worst audio book. It had a decent storyline. Could’ve been better in my opinion.

"Her Pretty Face" was Pretty Good.....
But the author's first book was much better!
The book was fast-paced but I felt that some of the storylines were just not that believable and that is the reason why I did not give this book 5 stars.
The narration of the book was superb and that really helped.
