The Last Mrs. Parrish by Liv Constantine
5.0

Initially reading this story, I thought to myself... I wonder how this is going to play out. Apart from my favorite thriller writer Dee Davis, not often do thriller books keeps me on edge and nervous to read or listen to.

The more I read about the characters and their development I was hooked.

In the beginning of the book the character of Jackson was written in a way that made me think... there is more to this guy. Before the narrative switch to Daphne, I wanted to believe that Jackson was a man that loved his wife deeply. Only to find out that manipulation is his main turn on.

I found myself angry enough to not want to finish the book because I hate the way men in power abuse their position with their significant others. I had to remind myself multiple times that this is a book, this is a book. I kept that mantra in my head but it didn’t diminish my anger towards Jackson.

I repeatedly thought to myself “what sparkles isn’t good and Amber will get what is owed to her.” I was joyous that Jackson was being unfaithful because that meant that Daphne had a way out.

I was just worried about HOW exactly she would get out... hopefully not in a mental institution.

Read the book to find out more! You will not regret it!
