Evidence of the Affair by Taylor Jenkins read is a short story from the popular author, and my second book by Taylor this month! It is included in Kindle Unlimited for anyone who may have the service.
The Story 📚
When Carrie discovers letters sent to her husband from another woman, she needs to find out more. But instead of confronting her husband, she begins writing letters to David, the husband of the woman Carrie’s husband is having an affair with. The pair begin their own correspondence, trying to make sense of what their partners are up to, while also getting to know one another. The story unfolds entirely through letter form, and examines the effects an affair can have.
The Review 👩🏻💻
I must say, I enjoyed the letter format! As a method for telling a short story, it easily became a quick page turner. A great story told in so few words, and with a unexpected twist at the end that really made me enjoy the book even more!
This is my second TJR book, and I will happily be reading more! If you’re looking for a short read, I recommend!
