It took me a bit to get into this one but about 100 pages in I couldn't put it down. Midway through the perspective shifts to the wife and it's a game changer. The ending is deeply, deeply satisfying on many levels. It was similar to The Wife Between Us. I'll be picking up their next book The Last Time I Saw You.
Abandoned at 20%.
Boring and too slow. I read the overall summary including spoilers and I am glad I didn't continue reading. The book is marketed as a mystery or a psychological thriller and, unless I missed something, no part of this book sounds like a thriller.
Bored with annoying characters.
Think: Big Little Lies meets Gone Girl
I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING.
This book threw me across the room with the revelation of Daphne's scheme. The author does an excellent job of teasing, not telling and saving the twist, when a reader was deep and certain how this story would end.
Most importantly, I closed the book convicted to be more in tune to women in Daphne's position and never assume the character of a person because of the facade displayed.
