Good Husbands: A Novel
by Cate Ray
What Am I Missing (3/1/2022)
It took me awhile to get into this book. The format of each character having her own chapter should have helped, but I found their voices too similar at first to keep them straight. But the writing was good enough that it kept my attention and about halfway through it really picked up. I began to have a real sense of dread as I read on, wondering what was going to happen next. I'm sorry to say I'm still wondering because I did not get the ending at all.
