My Lovely Wife
by Samantha Downing
Overall I enjoyed it, but it didn't wow me. I thought the plot was pretty predicable and very slow moving. The last 1/3 was way more interesting, but I still just didn't find any surprises. I don't mind a slow burn if there are big surprises along the way, but I could see everything coming (and was shocked that the MC couldn't). It was strange to see how revolved he was by the idea of kidnap and torture - he avoided even old documentaries about it. And yet was willing to stalk, and have someone else do the dirty work (when usually it was his idea). I just think his character was confusing and not at all consistent, which made it all seem false. I did like that last line - it truly gave me shivers.
