The Review 📚 Rock Paper Scissors
✨ The Title/Cover Draw:
- While I have enjoyed the 2 previous Alice Feeney books, I am still searching for one to take me by surprise. I did see this was an option from @bookofthemonth so I had to pick it up.
💜 What I liked:
- There are twists galore in this book. I thought I was on the right path and I really wasn’t! Yay for surprises. There is a lot of misdirection and the journey and revelations are a huge payoff in this book. It is also a super fast read.
😱 What I didn’t like:
- There were a few minor plot holes that I was confused by. Overall, though, it was a solid good time!
🚦 My face at the end: 🙀
💭 5 Reasons to Read:
- 1. A mysterious chapel
- 2. A dog named Bob
- 3. Author with disability
- 4. Mistrust in marriage
- 5. That twisty ending
🕧 Mini-Summary:
- Adam and Amelia think they have one a free weekend away at a converted chapel in the woods. But slowly it comes to light that nothing is by chance, or free.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
📘 Summary 📚 Rock Paper Scissors
Think you know the person you married? Think again…
Things have been wrong with Mr and Mrs Wright for a long time. When Adam and Amelia win a weekend away to Scotland, it might be just what their marriage needs. Self-confessed workaholic and screenwriter Adam Wright has lived with face blindness his whole life. He can’t recognize friends or family, or even his own wife.
Every anniversary the couple exchange traditional gifts – paper, cotton, pottery, tin – and each year Adam’s wife writes him a letter that she never lets him read. Until now. They both know this weekend will make or break their marriage, but they didn’t randomly win this trip. One of them is lying, and someone doesn’t want them to live happily ever after.
Ten years of marriage. Ten years of secrets. And an anniversary they will never forget.
Rock Paper Scissors is the latest exciting domestic thriller from the queen of the killer twist, New York Times bestselling author Alice Feeney.
