Solidly a four. Interesting storyline and the ending caught me by surprise. I was definitely following along with the narrator and reached the same conclusions, only to be shocked in the end!

What a ride. After the 250ish page hump, the book picks up. Infidelity is a large plot point for this book, which is why I assume most people rate this book low. I am also not a fan of that plot line either but boy oh boy did the story get good after that. The hunting wives are just a bunch of women who seem perfect but beneath everything, they are hiding secrets and their own guilty pleasures. The ending was crazy. If only you could see my face/reactions after reading some of the plot twists.

This book was very good if you like medium to slow paced books, as it takes a while for the plot to begin and actual thicken. Towards the end of the book the plot is THICK and start moving very fast. This builds the tension and made me want to carry on reading. I don't think this book will be for everyone and there is some touchy subjects within the book (Look up triggers). However I would recommend this book to someone who like mystery books and as a one off book to read.
