The Other Wife by Jackie Thomas-Kennedy

4.0

A beautifully-written, well-observed and painfully relatable debut.

The absence of certain details about Zuzu and Agnes’ early relationship and why they got married and had a kid contributes to the overarching sense of “how did I end up here?”

If you enjoyed Free Food for Millionaires by Min Jin Lee, this is probably your jam. It’s character-driven but plot-light and our FMC is flawed and frustrating but still somehow likeable.

I wish the ending was a little more satisfying but I really enjoyed this and will be keeping an eye out for more from JTK!

Thank you to NetGalley and Viking for the eARC.
