pickThis was discussed as a recent read on the episode Cozy Reads With Megan and Alyisha in MA on the podcast. I found it a delight. It was compulsively readable and a fun idea for a book.

I know it‘s not officially January #auldlangspine but the library hold expires in 7 days so starting this one a few days early before it disappears from my kindle. @MallenNC @monalyisha
pickYeah, I don‘t. Not anymore!
Clem is a brilliant Australian journalist, feminist and activist. I learn so much from her books and they are very amusing as well.
But the sad reality is that the people who should read these books and gain a new perspective of things never are the ones who do.

pickThis was a fast read - a novella really - about a woman who is a second wife, and her obsession with her husband‘s former wife. She is also step-mother to his two older children. The book rips along - the husband is a bit of a blow hard, the former wife seems faultless, the step children have a good relationship with the new wife, and yet the new wife cannot seem to control her impulses leading to a wild ending.
pickWhew, this is one ANGRY 😡 book!
It chronicles the end of an abusive marriage (not physical, verbal) from the POV of Jane, a wife and mother. It‘s told in a stream of consciousness style and I found myself breathless with fury while reading it (why did she even get together with him in the first place?!) but I couldn‘t put it down.
It‘s supposedly semi-autobiographical and I hope the ex-husband has read it.
This is a play-in book for #ToB.

4/5 🌟
This is such an odd premise, but it was fun to just go along with it and see what would happen. There are some tense moments, but overall this is an amusing look at relationships, the thing that makes us happy and the things that annoy us.
And two more while listening to The Husbands. This book is fabulous so far!
