My Husband by Maud Ventura

3.75

dark reflective tense slow-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: No

Loveable characters: No

Diverse cast of characters: No

An obsessive, tense, limerence fuelled female manipulator novel. Docking 1.25 stars though because I did not think the “twist” at the end was necessary and would honestly have preferred it without it.
