The Pretend Wife by Bridget Asher

2.0

This book was kind of entertaining, but I agree with other reviewers who asked, "What about the main character could you fall in love with?" She was kind of lost, and didn't have many defining characteristics, if any. Also, the author seemed to be a believer in the sort of nebulous, squishy "working through issues" view of things. I have lost a parent, and I still wanted to yell at the main character, "Ok, you lost your mom over 20 years ago! Do you have to mention it on every single page?" I found most characters unlikeable, except for Elliot and his family. I probably would not try another book by this author.
