Today I’m participating in Sam’s WWW Wednesdays. Here’s how it works:
The Three Ws are:
What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next, and/or what are you eagerly awaiting?

EAGERLY ANTICIPATING:
The Wife (e-book), by Alafair Burke (Release Date: 1/23/18)
Synopsis: When Angela met Jason Powell while catering a dinner party in East Hampton, she assumed their romance would be a short-lived fling, like so many relationships between locals and summer visitors. To her surprise, Jason, a brilliant economics professor at NYU, had other plans, and they married the following summer. For Angela, the marriage turned out to be a chance to reboot her life. She and her son were finally able to move out of her mother’s home to Manhattan, where no one knew about her tragic past.
Six years later, thanks to a bestselling book and a growing media career, Jason has become a cultural lightning rod, placing Angela near the spotlight she worked so carefully to avoid. When a college intern makes an accusation against Jason, and another woman, Kerry Lynch, comes forward with an even more troubling allegation, their perfect life begins to unravel. Jason insists he is innocent, and Angela believes him. But when Kerry disappears, Angela is forced to take a closer look at the man she married. And when she is asked to defend Jason in court, she realizes that her loyalty to her husband could unearth old secrets.
This much-anticipated follow-up to Burke’s Edgar-nominated The Ex asks how far a wife will go to protect the man she loves: Will she stand by his side, even if he drags her down with him?

So…that was my week (Wednesday to Wednesday). What did yours look like?

Unraveling Oliver sounds a really interesting read. I always admire an author who can create a character who’s unlikeable but nevertheless compelling to read about. But I do wonder how they live with them inside their head all the time they’re working on the book!

Ha…good question about living with the baddies in their heads. I did enjoy the book and learning about the character, though, and felt compassion for him, even as I wanted to punish him. LOL
Thanks for stopping by, Cathy, and enjoy your reading.

Just read your review of the Giffin book. She writes chick lit that’s a cut above, doesn’t she? I’ll have to look into One and Only. Thanks for letting me know about it.
