WBC Book blog: The Silent Wife (NS)

I saw this book on 60secondreviews.com, its a review site that gives 60 second video reviews.  I had heard a bit of buzz about this book and put it on hold at my library.  I then saw the review (the reviewer gave it 4 stars out of 5) so I decided to give it a chance even through Goodreads had less than favorable things to say about it.  I agree with the reviewer, the tone of the book is very cold and the characters aren't very likeable.  It is the kind of book that you bring to the beach and read in an afternoon.  Not the most amazing book but good enough to keep you reading and wanting to know how everything resolves itself.

  • My mom recommended this book to me and then it went on sale at audible so I bought it. I'm looking forward to listening to it when I finally get the chance.

  • Its a little like Gone Girl but a little different.  I would definitely give it a chance.

  • I was told that the synopsis of the book basically tells you the whole story and it isn't worth it.

  • I read the back of the book where someone compared it to Gone Girl as well. I didn't really think the comparison really worked that well. The book was decent though.
    Whether or not you find your own way, you're bound to find some way. If you happen to find my way, please return it, as it was lost years ago. I imagine by now it's quite rusty.”
