The Silent Wife

Probably closer to 3.5 but I like to round up. A psychological thriller [only somewhat accurately] compared to Gone Girl (as is evvvvery new psychological thriller, especially those centered around toxic marriages and/or "flawed" main characters). I didn't lovvvve the book but I didn't hate it, either. I disliked almost every single character and I feel like that is a sign of pretty talented (though annoying ha!) writing. It's sad that the author passed away, making this her first, and last (unless someone finishes the one she was working on when she died), work.

I just read a review that suggested this would have been better as a long short story, and I think that is true, this wasn't very long to begin with, and tweezing out some of the unnecessary detail and repetition of said detail would have made it more effective, particularly since there no twists or turns to the story to speak of until the end. It grabbed me at first, but got a little draggy after awhile.......I was resisting the urge to skim in the last third.MoreLess

Is that the end? I guess it does kinda tie everything together. Dean's in prison she gets the stuff. I guess I was expecting more.
