Mark my words this book is going to be a huge hit for this author. This is an exceptional thriller.

I really don't want to discuss the plot because I want everyone to discover this story on their own terms. It's intricate. It's breathtaking. It's heart-pumping. It's shiver inducing. It's everything I could ever ask for in this genre. I started this book yesterday morning and tore through 75% without even realizing it. I was completely riveted to the pages.

Thank you to NetGalley and publishing company for providing me with a digital ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Wow! This book was so twisty and crazy and I loved every minute of it.

Suzi is married to Nick and they have moved to the country since Nick does not trust Suzi (which he probably has good reason not to) Now in the country, Suzi is alone until her neighbor Nora moves in and becomes her confidante.

I love books that are told from multiple perspectives. In The Other Wife, the story is told through Suzi, Nora, and Elle.

It is another book that keeps you on the edge of your seat and makes you read late into the night.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an advanced copy for my honest review.

This is such a fast-paced psychological thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the last page.

This book has so many twists and turns that you’ll want to continue reading to find out what happens next. This was my first, but not last, Clare McGowan book!

I want to thank NetGalley and the publishers of this novel for a digital ARC!

Suspense. Emotion. Humor. Twists and turns. The Other Wife has all of this and more. Suzi cheated on her husband, Nick, and not just once. Now Suzi is pregnant, no longer working and living in an isolated cottage with her husband. She spends her days thinking about the mistakes she has made, wondering what happened to her lover, and doing the bidding of her husband while he is off working. In moves Nora next door. Maybe now Suzi will have someone to talk to during the day besides the dog, and someone to walk with her.
But Nora has secrets. Suzi has secrets. Can these two be friends when they both have so much to hide? Suddenly, something brings the two of them together. Now what happens? The twists and turns in this book will keep you on your toes and the edge of you seat. I will admit that, in the beginning, I was confused. It took me a bit to catch on to the storyline. Pay attention from the beginning, and all will become clear to you.
This was a very creatively written book that will keep you on your toes and keep you engaged. Once the story reeled me in, everything else that I was reading went on the back burner, as I read feverishly to see just what would happen next. I liked the characters, or most of them anyway. I found them to be interesting and engaging, and the plot intriguing. Do not sleep on this one and don’t give up on it. It is an awesome read. Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for the opportunity to review this book.

This one was not great. None of the characters were very likeable, the story line was long and drawn out, it took a very long time to get to the "point".

Suzi did a bad thing. She’s paying for it now, pregnant, scared, and living in an isolated cottage with her jealous husband, Nick. My first book by this author, but I'll be reading more

Women and the men they have chosen, all of whom are harbouring secrets. Liked the start, but then it dragged until around the 60% mark, when it became interesting and far livelier. These women - how on earth did they tolerate everything, no backbone at all apparently! It was predictable and didn’t take long to work out but I like to work a bit harder than I had to with this book. Plus I don’t think the weather gets as bad as described in Kent with impassible roads for days on end, being described as “normal” for this part of the country. The cover was intriguing and I liked how it was written.

This had a great plot and developed characters. I loved how many turns it had. The synposis was interesting and the book did not disappoint. I would read more from this author.I loved the ending.!

Wasn't quite sure where this was going in the beginning, but once I'd caught up with the story I couldn't stop reading, Another cracking read from Claire McGowan.

I was totally hooked into the story until one-third of the book but went on to read reviews by other readers on netgalley and read a spoiler. I was totally mad as the reviewer revealed the ending without a warning, so left the book right there. Difficult to understand why anyone would do that especially when it's a suspense thriller. Anyways the way the narrative was moving, I'm sure it was a total 5 star read for me.

Great thriller- could not put it down once I started. Told from alternating view points, it keeps the reader interested and guessing.

Fantastic domestic thriller that I couldn’t put down from the beginning. This is not my first novel by the author and certainly won't be my last. It was a great well paced thriller. We get good character set up with Suzi, Nick and Nora. I always wanted more and had questions. It kept my attention and kept me reading and thinking about what would come next. 4 big stars from me. I will recommend this one to my thriller loving friends.

4 stars

Well this book was a bit of a twist. I love when these psychological thrillers have my brain working overtime to figure out exactly where the characters in the book fit into the story. It took a little bit for me on this one. (I’ll be honest, it normally does lol). But it all made sense after it fit into place. Not a huge surprise with the how and why, but I still enjoyed the book. The writing was good and the story overall was interesting. Although I wanted to flick Susie a few times. She got on my nerves a bit with her stupidity.

I would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes a good psychological thriller.

My thanks to Netgalley and Amazon Publishers Uk for a copy or “The Other Wife “ for an honest review.

What a wonderful , suspenseful, tale of secrets and lies this book is
I felt clever that I’d guessed a twist a little into the book , but what came next I definitely didn’t see coming !
I’ve enjoyed and recommended , several other books by Claire Mc Gowan in the past and will certainly be doing so with “The Other Wife”
Highly recommended.A book that stands out from the crowded shelves of other psychological thrillers

Claire McGowan's gift is in the creation of strong, believable characters and this lifts this book above the average psychological thriller. Great rural setting too with a real sense of menace

I was a little confused at the beginning of this book but am glad I persevered, because as I realised who and what the characters were I became thoroughly engrossed in the story. It seemed to be a little far fetched at times but in this day and age it might not be! I must admit that I didn’t like any of the characters but they were skilfully constructed and believable. There could have been less toing and froing to various places but this is a minor criticism. I thoroughly enjoyed the twists and turns and would recommend this book.
Thank you Claire Mc Gowan, Amazon Publishing UK and Netgalley for giving me the opportunity to give my unbiased opinion.

I requested this book on NetGalley because of the blurb.

Suzi, suffering from guilt from an extramarital affair and now pregnant, agrees to quit her job and move to the country with her husband, Nick. Isolated, she clings to her new neighbor, Nora, for support. Suzi spills all of her secrets, relieved to finally have someone to talk to about everything that’s been going on. But can she really trust Nora? What does Suzi really know about her friendly new neighbor?

This book had lots of twists, and I felt like I was only figuring it out right before the author told me the big reveals, so I was right on time. There are enough little details to figure it out but not so many that the plot is obvious. The development of Suzi’s story kept me interested and turning pages, wanting to see what would happen next.

I really enjoyed this novel and definitely recommend to fans of the psychological suspense genre!

Thank you NetGalley.
First I really liked the cover. It was dark and forbodding sort of like the story!

This story is told by three women's POV, but really each character was no difference then the next. Three women living in a quiet neighborhood with secrets.

Suzi and Nick are a messed up couple with Nick being a controlling douche who never lets Suzi out of his sight. She soon befriends her neighbor Nora. But Nora seems off as well. Then there is Elle who pretends to have the perfect life until her husband messed her up. All three women are off and its hard to tell which one is which. I found myself going back to the beginning of each chapter to remember whose POV I was reading. There were some good twists in the book, some predictable and others not so much.

Good read, that had its slow points though..

I'm always here for a good suspenseful book of lies, revenge and murder. This exactly what The Other Wife Delivered.

Thank you Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review

I enjoyed this page turning book. It was well written. Glad that I read it. Will be checking other books by this author.
