Happy Publication Day (January 23, 2018) to The Wife!
5 innovative, timely, and edge-of-your-seat stars to The Wife! π π π π π
The Wife grabbed me from the very first chapter. The writing was tight, and the pacing was on point. When Angelaβs husband was accused of sexual harrassment, and later sexual assault of a different woman, would she continue to stand by her husband? How far would she go to protect him? And just what is it about her past that keeps her in this marriage?
The last chapter is perfection. I was able to figure out one of the twists, but not the other; but it took me until later in the book to put my finger on it. On another twist, I followed one red herring so far in the wrong direction that I practically landed in the water with it! π
Yeah, I think Iβll end my review here. Itβs another one where I feel like my hands are tied because I donβt want to ruin any of the reading experience with this review. Friends, this is a great thriller! #thehypeisreal
With the #MeToo movement and widespread media coverage of sexual harassment and sexual assault as of late, The Wife is a timely release that would offer plenty of discussion for book clubs.
Thank you to Alafair Burke, Harper/Harper Collins, and Edelweiss for the ARC to review.
