The Daylight Marriage by Heidi Pitlor
2.0
When I saw this I had to have this book. Cuz I'm a unashamed fangirl of Stephen King.
“Hypnotically readable--I absolutely couldn’t put it down. The structure is brilliant, and I turned the pages with increasing dread. This book is terrific.” —Stephen King
Umm yeah..I didn't really like it. Lowell and Hannah have been married for years. When we first meet them they have a fight about something. I can't even remember what because it was over something that didn't stick out for me. I mean dang, couples argue. This one was bland fight central. Anyways, Hannah goes missing the next day. Lowell does the missing person report and then we go into both their memories on their marriage.
This could have been interesting. It may have been because the book was so short but these two characters would bore the hair off a dog. I just didn't connect to either of them. The kids in the story seemed like just passing thoughts.
I'm giving it 2 stars because I did finish it. I've not liked books that were popular before so it may surprise me. This one reminded me of one that I hated and now it's a flipping money making machine of a movie.
I received an arc copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
