graceburke 's review for:

The Other Woman by Sandie Jones
4.0

I held my breath every single page of this one, waiting for the ball to drop. I could not put it down and was surprised by how much I liked the narrator. It was unsettling in the way Where the Crawdads Sing is, but I was weary of every character from the get go. I was more interested in Emily’s two best friends and mom- they were the most interesting characters in the book. Also, some parts of the ending surprised me but the main reveal I saw coming about 50 pages in. (Sidenote- I’m very into how every single one of Reese’s mystery book choices solidify my dislike and distrust of men)
