Beautiful Ugly by Alice Feeney
3.0
mysterious slow-paced


I always love a book with subject of all things book related. This one is with Grady, a best seller writer and finds his wife missing the day he became a best seller. Since then, he is lost and can't move on and write. His agent suggests for him to go to a remote island in Scotland for inspiration. 

The story is a bit slow and very atmospheric with the strangeness of the island. I had a lot of issues with the twist and the ending. It felt rush and unbelievable and left me with so many questions. 

Richard Armitage and Tuppence Middleton did a great job with the narration. 

Thank you @macmillan.audio @flatiron_books for a copy of this book.
