Our Wives Under The Sea by Julia Armfield

emotional mysterious tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

I expected to love this. It definitely held my attention in terms of the author letting you know a little at the beginning and building some tension with more information being revealed as you go. Parts were beautifully written. What I didn’t like was that parts felt a bit repetitive, maybe embellished on for the sake of length. It also felt like many of the reveals were expected,  and didn’t go far enough. Still would recommend to someone who likes these styles of works.
