This book is a bit of a ride. And honestly kinda messed up. Like there’s some stuff I found a bit twisted.
I went into this pretty blind and wasn’t expecting a book about polygamy (even though the book is called The Wives - plural - so I should have guessed). This book also took turns I didn’t expect either. I was definitely invested in this story, but I did have some suspicions, one of which I guessed correctly and one that didn’t turn out quite like I thought. Overall I was invested and it has some decent twists, but I didn’t like how this one made me feel. Like I said, pretty twisted and some parts just made me feel icky.
Trigger Warnings: miscarriage
