Overall a decent read. I had a couple of moments where I considered DNFing the book.
The book gets right into the action which is great but the first half of the book is kind of repetitive and I still don’t know why I care about the FMC or if I do at all. She eventually meets someone else in her situation and that helps the story along for a few chapters. Then it is back to more of the same where she doesn’t really seem to grow as a person outside of being tired of her situation. Thankfully she ends on what seems like a HEA. It was an interesting choice to end from a different person’s perspective but it was nice to know how they were thinking about the whole situation.
I don’t think I’d recommend this book to someone else. I waffled between 2 and 3 stars.

Husbands is a fine book, with some insightful nuances, hilarious jokes, and notable character growth. Unfortunately, it suffers from missing the forest to appreciate the trees, leaving my fairly unsatisfied with its sudden ending.
