The Divorce by Nicole Strycharz
4.0
Well this book was very interesting. Am still digesting, but currently rate 3 1/2 stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2! It was pretty train-wrecky, but it somehow mostly worked!
Jenzy, our h, annoyed the absolute heck out of me. She’s a “hippie”, but not really. She’s impulsive, has an irrational phobia of bugs, loves new-age stuff, is messy and flighty. She immediately jumps into a relationship with OM, which is so problematic I can’t even begin to wrap my head around. How can you wait on your husband for 2 whole years and just start seeing someone else while your husband is trying to get you back?
The groveling that Chris does when he finally realizes the error of his ways is excellent. He really was a horrible ass! Jenzy wasn’t perfect either, however. Her flakiness would’ve sent me running for the hills. Chris’s actions are OTT callous though, especially the banquet. He held onto a lot of misplaced resentment toward Jenzy.
Should these two have stayed married? Yes I believe they were worth saving, so I’m glad the book ended the way it did. There were times I wanted to strangle them both! Jenzy eventually drops the OM like he’s nothing and never sleeps with him, so he obviously wasn’t the man for her. I feel like he was slimy going after a married woman anyway! Despite the problematic parts, this book was really entertaining and I couldn’t put it down.
