A review by lexistwick
The Husbands by Holly Gramazio

funny slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated

4.25

It was laugh-out-loud funny at parts, the author captures many hilarious and realistic human quirks in the parade of husbands through the protagonist's attic. The plot was interesting, winding, and unexpected - which made it a slow read for me, but not unpleasantly so. It's a very original storyline that raises questions and makes meaning of modern dating and also meaning-making for life in general. It also wonderfully captures many unique aspects of marriage, at least many I could relate to from 8 years married so far.
