My review:
The Wife Between Us by Greer Hendricks
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The Wife Between Us by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen is a mystery/thriller read that already has readers talking months before it’s scheduled release. Picking up this book I was a bit hesitant because who hasn’t read over and over again that this will be the next Gone Girl or Girl on the Train only to be a bit of a disappointed? Well The Wife Between Us didn’t promise to be the next anything but guess what, I think I finally found the one that surpassed the promises regardless.
The book starts readers off by introducing them to Vanessa, the wife that was. Vanessa is struggling to recover after her marriage and losing all that she once had all the while worrying and wondering what her husband is now doing. Then we meet Nellie, the wife that will be. Who do we root for? Who do we hate? As we dive into these characters feelings will form and thoughts on how the story will go will pop into your head but whatever you think you know, think again. With so many twists it will make your head spin this book is sure to keep readers on their toes.
Each part of this story is told in sections during the book and with each section I was scratching my head and wondering if I had read things right. These authors certainly found a way to confuse and confound readers and make them love every minute of it. We as readers all hear the phrases unputdownable and a definite page turner all the time but how often do those actually come true? Well, I’d highly suggest if you are looking for that next jaw dropping read you really should pick up a copy of The Wife Between Us.
I received an advance copy from the publisher via NetGalley.

I’m reading this now! I’ll have to come back and read your review! -Ashley 🙂
I’m starting this soon…so excited to read it!
Fantastic review Carrie! “Unputdownable” indeed!😊
Oh I hope you like it Ashley! I made sure there wasn’t anything to spoil this one in my review after seeing some complaints of people figuring out twists from comments and reviews. 🙂
It’s definitely a good one Tina! 🙂
Thanks Kim! I gave up trying to guess what was going to happen in this one and just went along for the ride after a while. Loved that the twists just keep coming up until the final pages. 🙂
Have you seen that scene in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, where Harry is spit out by Tom Riddle’s diary? I felt exactly like that! LOL!😁
I was thinking more along the lines of my head spinning around and around like the Exorcist or something. LOL
😁
Fantastic Review Carrie!😎 I have this one to review eventually as well!😉 I’m so glad you enjoyed it! I’m really looking forward to reading it after reading yours and Kim’s review!!!😉
Thanks Dani!! It’s definitely a good one so if you get a slump just sneak this one in for one you know you’ll get excited over. 😉
This a great idea Carrie!!!!! Woot!!! Is it like a whodunit?
Well…. a relationship whodunit, not murder. 🙂
Hmmm…. This does sound pretty good! I might have to indulge because I’m down in the dumps.😉
It will grab you and not let go until done. 🙂
So what’s your opinion Disturbed or The Wife Between Us? Disturbed publication date has passed so should go with that but I want something that really grabs me. So been waiting on your opinion. Sorry if bothering you girl.
Really I don’t think you can go wrong with either book, both surprised me and were great stories but really different from one another.
Thanks so much for that advice Carrie! I was waiting for your input! Lol!😂 I already asked Kim and she said both should help my slump. So hearing your feedback I am going to behave and do the one that has a past due publication! Thanks so much for your feedback Carrie!😉😊
You’re welcome!
