Art is trying to help Mimi find love in the tune of an altrgorohim. I found this an easy read but wasn't truly invest I'm the characters. For me the pacing is slow and I haven't felt a connect to Mimi or Art. I feel at times this book is a bit long winded. I was excited to read the book because I liked the premise. Unfortunately, I had difficulty with this book.The Theory of Not Quite Everything 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.’⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ms. Lees has been working a career in video-games journalism, dialing into the world’s most popular video games. In her spare time she is, of course, writing books, but also playing games and reading, preferring stories that are 50/50 terrifying and emotional. Ms. Lees is partial to fantasy and crime fiction.
The lost wife' was fun to read and I want to say a big thank you to @netgalley for this review copy! Georgina Lees was born writing, or so it seems. She started as a little girl scribbling in notepads, graduating to pounding on keyboards. At university, she started fulfilling her destiny by studying creative writing and also film. If you enjoy evenly-paced, character-driven thrillers featuring characters that might not always be likeable, then you may enjoy this novel. The lost wife' has two storylines. One is set in the present and the other one is set a year before Lea and Harry's wedding. You get closer and closer to the day of the wedding and in the meantime you read more and more about Lea and Harry's relationship. It seems that Harry has something to hide. He throws himself completely into work and Lea regularly cannot get in touch with him. What is he hiding from her?This past story follows Leah as she finally prepares to marry her successful partner Harry who’s also the father of her child and from the instant he proposes things start to unravel and further escalate as they reach full momentum. Leah is largely dissatisfied with her current life but trying to convince herself she’s not and Harry who is secretive and becoming increasingly controlling.
None of the characters are particularly likeable except for Lea's mum, although I did have, by the end, a modicum of liking for Felicity. The men are, by and large, terrible. I felt so very sorry for the child, Josh. No child deserves parents like his. The brand new edge-of-your-seat thriller from the bestselling author of The Girl Upstairs You always underestimated me and I always overestimated you. Thank you @onemorechapterhc and @glees_author for my gifted copy and for including me in this read-along! It should have been have been the happiest day of their lives. They should have had a lifetime of happiness together. But at the end of the wedding, she is fleeing her husband covered in blood… Beginning with a shadowy, unsettling scene of a desperate woman and child fleeing into the night, ‘The Lost Wife’ tugs at your curiosity right from the start. Written with an impressive chilling tone, the story is enthralling as it takes you on a roller coaster of unexpected twists and turns. The author smoothly transitions between timelines, providing an intriguing juxtaposition of how the past informs the fractured present.Art is trying to help Mimi find love in the tune of an altrgorohim.

I was excited to read the book because I liked the premise. Unfortunately, I had difficulty with this book. 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.’⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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. I enjoyed the way the author wrote this book. For example, without spoilers of course, the author uses a duel timeline and moves the past closer to the present throughout the book. It never jumps around which makes it a lot easier to comprehend and follow.
