Review: Apartment 303 - Kelli Hawkins - March 2023

This book has been one that had been sitting on my list to read for a while as the cover caught my attention after reading Riley Sager's Lock Every Door. This book is set in an apartment building as well. In Apartment 303 lives Rory Johnson who is suffering from PTSD and OCD, it is so bad that she also has slight agoraphobia. With her trauma, she believes that when people get too close to her, they die and that it's all her fault. That is until she meets two of her fellow neighbours Farrah and Simon. The pair of them get to know Rory and soon she finds herself opening up and having the desire to become part of society once again. That is until she spots her father on a surveillance video, how can that be when he is dead? Rory is convinced it's her dad and he is after her as she starts to smell triggers in her apartment like cigarette smoke etc. As the book goes along though, we notice that Rory's aunt Lucinda is determined a bit too much to have Rory stay in the comfort of her own home and not get any better. She is also quite dismissive of Rory, which makes me think there is more to the story. When bits and pieces of Rory's life start to come to light and certain memories, she regains her confidence to finally stand up for herself. However, someone close to Rory doesn't want that to happen and will even go as far as to kill her and those around Rory. Apartment 303 by Kelli Hawkins was a fast-paced book and a great psychological thriller which has made me now want to go back and read Kelli's backlist of books.
