The Golden Cage by Camilla Läckberg
3.0

The Golden Cage is an enthralling story of revenge. Faye, the protagonist, is determined to get back at her husband who is controlling, cruel, and unfaithful. It is a story that will resonate with a lot of women (especially those who have been scorned by a man). The plot moved quickly, but I had a hard time believing and agreeing with everything. There were definitely points of the story that were unrealistic and I am not sure how much male readers will enjoy this one, as there is a lot of "man-bashing" present. Overall, this title was a fun read, but there were some aspects of the plot that I didn't enjoy. With that being said, this would be the perfect book to pick up after a nasty breakup as it really showcases the anger, hurt, and angst that comes with an intimate betrayal.
