Fantastic book! Big praise to the author because I did not see that coming! Fantastic plot and well written. Could not put it down.’⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The story unfolds through the alternating timelines of the present and respective months leading up to the present day. It follows Lea who has lived happily with Harry, the father of her four year old son Josh, for the past five years. Until someone plants the idea of marriage in her head. And Lea wants to know why Harry doesn't want to get married. Or is it that he just doesn't want to marry her? Until the night he surprises her by proposing. And then things slowly start to unravel as well as escalate. The Lost Wife is a slightly better than an okay read, but definitely doesn't live up to this author's first book. This is the second book I’ve read by this author and I did like this one slightly more. It’s a suspenseful psychological thriller told in a dual timeline, so the past one year previously working up until the present day and then in real-time. The Theory of (Not Quite) Everything by Kara Gnodde is a tender, intelligent and uplifting novel about love in all its forms, and how life is more than just a numbers game . . .

THE AUTHOR: Georgina studied creative writing and film at university and has since pursued a career in video-games journalism, covering some of the most popular games in the world. Her psychological thrillers are inspired by her surroundings, from the congested London streets to the raw English countryside. She can be found playing games, writing stories, and reading anything from fantasy to crime fiction. When Emily goes missing Suzie may be the one person who knows her the best. After all, she has heard everything through the thin walls and floors. Everything. Suzie may be the only one to be able to save her.Lea loves Harry...or at least she's convinced she does. Just as she has convinced herself she is happy when it is clear she is not. Nothing in her life has turned out the way she thought and she finds herself a mother too young and tied down at twenty six. She is largely dissatisfied and has no idea what to do about it. I hardly think marrying Harry is the solution but she seems to think it is. But Harry isn't who she thinks he is...and he has become increasingly secretive and controlling. The present is set during Lea and Harry's wedding day and is about a woman on the run. I can't say too much about this, but you feel that certain things are not right. I found the atmosphere mysterious and the tension was slowly built up. The alternation between the past and the present was nice, but I found the plot a bit disappointing, despite a number of plot twists.

Fantastic book! Big praise to the author because I did not see that coming! Fantastic plot and well written. Could not put it down.' Thank you @onemorechapterhc and @glees_author for my gifted copy and for including me in this read-along! The novel begins with a love story: Harry and Lea are getting married, but things are not as perfect as they appear. Harry is constantly at work and seems to be concealing something, but what? Lea wonders what her life might be like if she had made a different decision. This is my first time reading a book by Georgina Lees and all I can say is WOW! From cover to cover, I was hooked.’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐What a twisty story! I genuinely had no idea how this was going to end! A dark domestic thriller, where nobody is who they seem. Easily Ms. Lees' best one yet.' The lost wife' was fun to read and I want to say a big thank you to @netgalley for this review copy! This is my first time reading a book by Georgina Lees and all I can say is WOW! From cover to cover, I was hooked.’⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I would like to thank GeorginaLees, #Netgalley and #OneMoreChapter for an ARC of #TheLostWife in exchange for an honest review. Fantastic book! Big praise to the author because I did not see that coming! Fantastic plot and well written. Could not put it down.’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ms. Lees’s following thriller, After the Party, is an equally suspenseful, edgy book full of obsessions and secrets. Forever three years Lizzie has been in love with Dean. They are colleagues but he’s never given her a second look.So I absolutely loved Georgina Lees' writing in After the Party, but I felt she was trying too hard to make it a thriller and I, an insignificant reader, recommended she focus more on a character-driven story. Now, do I think Lees actually read my review and said Girlwiththepinkskimask, you right!!!?? No. But regardless, this book is definitely more character driven and less like its trying to fit the mold.
