Monday's Lie

I read this quickly because I was so sure that the plot would pick up on the next page. Ok, maybe the next page... it did not. Well, the book picked up in the last 20 pages but only after I slogged through giant paragraphs of description of her mother and the games they'd play, their childhood, reminiscings of that one terrible night. I found myself skimming early on- bad sign. The premise of this story held so much promise -but how can I suspend disbelief about a woman raised by a spy who doesn't know what her husband is planning?!? Give me a break. For such a “brilliant” main character she sure was blind or naive or both. Ugh. Do not recommend.

Really liked this, good read but didn't feel like a thriller to me - didn't stop me enjoying the writing and the overall story though!
