This wasn't the most exciting book for me. I did feel really angry at one of the characters. It was a little predictable. I guess I just wasn't blown away by the ending.
This was a quick afternoon read for me, it was enjoyable in the way lifetime movies are. Entertaining but no real plot twist you didn’t see coming from a mile away!

The Mother in Law
My rating…3.5 stars ‘Not Bad, Like a Midweek ‘Hey Big Head’ Text” – This one had potential! I wasn’t glued to it, but I wasn’t rolling my eyes either. It did what it needed to do, like that one cousin who shows up to the function and eats, but at least brings soda.
Loren thought she hit the jackpot with Jack, a charming husband and a great father figure for her young daughter. But when Jack’s father passes away, inviting her new mother-in-law, Coralee, to stay seemed like the compassionate choice. Little did Loren know, she’d just opened her home to a master of psychological warfare.
While the suspense kept me hooked, some of Loren’s decisions had me raising an eyebrow (or two). It’s one of those stories where you might find yourself talking back to the book, offering unsolicited advice to fictional characters.

Overall, “The Mother-in-Law” serves up a hearty dish of domestic suspense with a side of dark humor. It’s a reminder that sometimes, family ties can double as nooses.

To me this felt sort of boring and unoriginal. I liked the ending though, that did get me lol. I wasn’t expecting THAT to be like that. I was just annoyed the whole time haha.
