As many have said, Adam is the most unlikable character possible, but every character is unlikable. The ending is predictable. There were just enough threads throughout to make you guess a bit and doubt the ending will be as predictable as it ends up being. I wasn’t expecting to like this book. I was definitely hoping to and I’m glad I picked it up. I found this novel to be a clever, fun ride, even if it was exasperating at times. Particularly the male lead. But more on that later. Our story starts with a couple of character establishing scenes before jumping into the crux of the novel: the murder of the mistress. And it’s an effective set up done quite succinctly. We have a couple who appear to be very happy if not, in love but if the tagline of the book doesn’t clue you in nothing will. We have a man cheating on his wife for a variety of reasons, the primary being a gender inverted trope of a high powered, successful female attorney who admittedly neglects her marriage. Throw in a writer, struggling with not only his career but a legendary amount of indecisiveness and you have the perfect recipe for a relationship dying from the inside out. The mistress is simply a spark to the already brewing powder keg. And boy does it implode. As it’s the literary husband who is implicated in the mistress’s murder as her body is found cold in the couple’s weekend home where he does most of his writing. Boy does he need a good attorney. Good thing his wife is the best in the business. But don’t think even his wife could save him from all of the stupid decisions this character makes in the novel. I don’t know if this was intentional on the authors part or if it was another way to move the story along or add some action. All it accomplished was frustrating me to no end. Despite the ineptitude of this particular character, the story still managed to engage me. Add the spectacular twist at the end of the story and this book is one I would greatly recommend to others.

The writing was really good, the story was very interesting, but the CHARACTERS WERE AWFUL!!! There were characters that made me literally shake with rage when they would "speak". But I guess that's another thing you can add to the amazing writing. It takes quite a bit to evoke that visceral of a reaction from me, but this one got it. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
