Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
From the outside, she has an enviable life: a successful career, stunning looks, a beautiful house in the suburbs, two healthy children, and most importantly, an ideal husband. After fifteen years together, she is still besotted with him. But she's never quite sure that her passion is reciprocated.
Determined to keep their relationship perfect, she meticulously prepares for every encounter they have, always taking care to make her actions seem effortless. She watches him attentively, charting every mistake and punishing him accordingly to help him improve. And she tests him - setting traps to make sure that he still loves her just as much as he did when they first met.
Until one day she realizes she may have gone too far...
With the surprise of Gone Girl, the bleakness of The Talented Mr Ripley and the sinister charm of the Netflix thriller You, My Husband is a bold and exhilarating story of passion and the dark secrets that lie beneath a seemingly healthy marriage.
Critic Reviews
'One of the most daring, provocative, unnervingly intimate thrillers... Few writers besides Ruth Rendell and Patricia Highsmith can evoke domestic unease with such sangfroid; fewer still can make it such delirious fun.' A. J. Finn, #1 NYT bestselling author of The Woman in the Window
'The exceptional My Husband has everything I look for in a novel: chic, beguiling and deeply unhinged.' (Juno Dawson)

Riveting
I loved listening to the obsessive thoughts of a woman who is so addicted to feeling "in love" with her husband that everything she does is a covert manipulation to get her fix: any kind expression of passion from him in return, and (as with any addiction) she can never get enough and seems to be driven almost insane by her need for her husband. This drives her to increasingly bizarre thoughts and behaviours with potentially catastrophic consequences that build the suspense to a perfectly unnerving ending. Masterfully written, insightful, tense, dark, oddly funny, and absolutely well worth the read (or listen).

Breathless nonsense
There was no plot, no character development and no interest. It did not even manage to convey obsession persuasively.
