Day 208: A Good Marraige

Chatting Books Online Day 208.  I decided to read today's recommended book because a local book club read it recently and I heard good things from them, and I had read some of the author's previous work like Reconstructing Amelia and liked her writing style so today's recommended book is A Good Marriage by Kimberly McCreight.

In this intense thriller everyone, and I mean everyone, has secrets in their past they are not being completely open about.  Amanda has just moved to a new town with her somewhat cold and distant mega-rich husband but she makes new friends right away.  Lizzie has a great job, and a man she loves but we start to see the cracks.  When someone ends up in a pool of blood at the bottom of the stairs everything begins to unravel. 

I love when a mystery is truly that, meaning I have not figured out who-done-it until the end.  Well I have to say with this one I thought I knew on about page 230, then on around page 300 everything I thought I knew fell apart and so many more possibilities opened up.  then in the last 50 pages we took so many twists and turns when we got to the last few pages and the culprit was finally revealed it was someone I had never even suspected! 

Suspenseful  thriller filed with domestic suspense, this one will keep the pages turning for sure.
