Not a good ending,but different for everyone i suppose.
Read to ch 5. If it doesnt get better, drop it. Life is too short to read sh*tty stories.
No. I struggled all way through.
I just read another chapter and I think it’s time to ditch it. The writing is very weird. I can’t get into it. And I rarely give up on a book.
The only book I absolutely hated last year. It was so poorly written and the story had so many plot holes and was not well organized or thought out.
I gave up on it.
Loved it
Me too
I’m starting it tonight I hope I’ll love it to ?
The wife is just annoying and the husband isn’t any better but I liked it
The hype made me finish it, not horrible but not up to the hype!
No
The writing does not get better
No
I liked it
Its an ok read . Not brillant
. I have a to get back to pile ( for when i have nothing better to read, not quite giving up ?)
It was so so…. writing was poor…I agree 100 %. It was a fast read during lunches at work…
Ehhh. You keep waiting and waiting and nothing. I didn’t dislike it but it wasn’t her best.
Nope! Finished it but really didn’t enjoy it at all ? sad as I had high hopes for it!
I liked it
I liked it ?
Nope. The terrible writing killed it for me.
No
Yes
No. I didn’t think it was good.
No
So much repetitive writing. Story ok, writing thin.
I like to find out how the story comes out so I forgive a lot if I want to know what happens. I wasn’t sorry I finished it but I also wouldn’t start another book by that author.
No
Not at all. The worst book I’ve read all year. In years, I should say.
???? what she said! 2 stars at best…
I think I gave it 1 on Goodreads. I was so annoyed (borderline angry) when I finished this book. Just awful.
No. Awful book
I liked it
It was just OK for me.
It’s not great, but it is interesting and a quick read.
Yes. I liked it
I loved it
I tried reading it but I couldn’t get into it, will give it another go though
It was just alright for me. But it’s a quick read, so I would finish it/
It was okay! Twist at the end! Not great literature, but easy to read.
Eh
Average
No I hated it and predicted the end!Badly written!
F
I liked it
I loved it!
It was just meh
I had to skip whole chapters!
It was ok, not great but not super bad either.
I gave up quarter of the way thru book. Just couldn’t get into it.
No
‘Tis awful.
i quite liked it actually
Don’t bother
I thought it fun although the grammar was off sometimes. It was an easy read. I enjoyed the twists and turns although some were predictable. Good twist at the end.
It’s so crap
I liked it
Okish!
Its soooooo repetitive
I liked it… a real page turner towards the end!
No
I agree. This book really isn’t very good.
I felt the same way and struggle thru the whole book because it’s written in 3 person. I enjoyed the storyline but I could not get pass the it being written in the 3rd person
Thanks for all the opinions. I ditched it after 2 chapters. I’m now reading The Immortalists by Chloe Benjamin. Hopefully it’s better! ??
Lol i couldn’t get past the first page of the immortalists.. too weird
@Kelly the first page was super weird and it’s still a little too much a few chapters in but all reviews say to stick with it so I’m doing my best.
Darn … Mostly negative seemingly, and I just bought it
The story might be ok but I couldn’t stomach the writing. It was very poorly written.
This is why I buy used book or use the library. Been burned too many times lol
I just could not get into it.
I liked it
I liked it!
No, but maybe read the last chapter.
Thought the whole premise of this book was stupid.
I just started it….?
I made it 2 chapters.
I did not love it
I haven’t read or tried to read it but I have a policy. If I have to “struggle” to read a book, it’s time to move on to another book.
Yes
I did not like this book. It was one when you read the last few pages you are just mad you wasted your time. ?
@Nancy you need to read Behind Closed Doors!! 100% better than The Couple Next Door.. It was a little slow moving but I believe worth finishing …
Same author?
Not the same author. I agree with Tonya Bailey, though. Behind Closed Doors is much better, although it is a bit dark (not graphic, though).
So so
Very average
I hope so I have It on my tbr pile on my kindle lol x
I quit after 2 chapters. ????
Oh damn ?
Completely agree! Gave up on it pretty quick
Oh hell I have this in my hoard of kindle tbr books!
