Beautiful Ugly is about a writer whose wife mysteriously goes missing and he is determined to find out what has happened to her. Since her disappearance his writing has taken a major dive and he is sent to a remote island where his publisher thinks the quiet will be beneficial for his writing. As soon as he steps on the boat he starts seeing his wife everywhere and is convinced he is going crazy because no one else sees the person he is describing.
A good book but not a huge fan of the ending. Although it wasn’t rushed it felt a little half baked and isn’t the type of ending I would want to rediscover on a second read. Would recommend it but only to a specific type of reader.

Definitely suspenseful but felt like the story line was partly borrowed from another book and all the build up to an end I mostly predicted.

I was torn between giving this book a 3 or a 4, but ultimately, I’m going with 4 stars.
While I didn’t enjoy the ending — especially the last 15% — the story’s strong sense of mystery and the eerie creepiness of the villagers kept me hooked. It truly made me want to know more about what was happening, and that feeling carried me through the book. Despite the disappointing ending, the atmosphere and tension were compelling enough to deserve 4 stars.
