Triggers for everything. What an infuriating read.

Content warning the whole plot - and my rage

Review of 'Perfect Couple' on 'Goodreads'

Mostly an entertaining read, but as a mystery thriller it was somewhat unsatisfying. By the time the author got to the big reveal, the the reader had probably already figured it out, and the chapters the author seems to have inserted thinking they would heighten the suspense just came across as annoying.

The end was equally disappointing. A postlude tangent that equates an early abortion to the activity of a serial killer was particularly unwelcome, as was the suggestion that seven months after an unresolved near death experience the main character sees life as "back to normal". This is particularly galling when the whole book is predicated on the idea of subconscious impacts of traumatic experiences.
