More Than You'll Ever Know by Katie Gutierrez
5.0
“The dance becomes an affair, which becomes a marriage, which becomes a murder…”
More Than You’ll Ever Know is a story about a woman caught in a double life after one husband murders the other, and Cassie, our true crime writer who must get this story out into the world.
Holy wow! This book was insanely compelling all the way through. There wasn’t a point where I wasn’t deeply invested in the lives of these terribly human characters. The families contained within these pages are flawed, but often in a relatable way. More than anything, this is a story of motherhood, family, and what it is to be a woman in search of herself (which lets be real, that’s most of being a woman in this world). You can’t help but empathize for the people hurting others and for the people hurt.
There are numerous potent lines scattered throughout that kind of made me stop and appreciate how someone else could put into words what many of us women feel. Gutierrez is going to be an author to keep your eye on from here on out. Mark my words on that.
I’m so glad that I’ve found all these terrific women writers in the past year or two.
Thanks so much to William Morrow/HarperCollins Publishing for sending me this ARC of More Than You Know. It’s absolutely one of my favorite books so far this year.
