Reviews

Not since Gone Girl have I been so gripped by a narrative voice. This is a tale of blackest comedy, spiralling obsession and ultimate horror. By turns laugh-out-loud funny and appalling, Marisa Kashino asks how far you would go to secure your dream house, then goes several steps further than you would ever dare. Compulsive and unputdownable. Highly recommended. * Alex Michaelides, #1 bestselling author of The Silent Patient *
What an absolutely insane, sometimes obscene and ludicrously entertaining and original novel. I felt every emotion available while reading Best Offer Wins: horrified, scared, excited, obsessed, humoured, delighted, concerned and of course, entirely gripped. You know its a great book when youre rooting for someone who should not be supported for their rights or their wrongs. Marisa Kashino is a genius and I cannot wait to inevitably read this book all over again. * Ore Agbaje-Williams, author of The Three of Us *
Best Offer Wins is a page-turning blend of cringey and compulsive that had my jaw dropping on nearly every other page. Kashino cloaks her examination of gender, class, and race expectations in a twisty domestic thriller that had me guessing until the final pages. * Lottie Hazell, author of Piglet *
Darkly satirical and wildly entertaining, Best Offer Wins is a riveting thriller from the first page to the last. Who knew that buying a house could be so fun and twisted * Amy Tintera, New York Times bestselling author of Listen for the Lie *
Best Offer Wins takes the thrill of the house hunt and ratchets it up to diabolical levels. Dark, hilarious, and totally gripping, with a jaw-dropping twist that closes the deal. * Ryan Serhant, CEO and star real estate broker, author of Sell It Like Serhant, producer and star of Netflixs Owning Manhattan *
