If you can’t stop watching Doctor Foster and The Affair, you won’t be able to put down this chilling new four-part series.
Michael and Ellie are that couple.
The ones who have it all.
Success, charm, trust…but no relationship is perfect and the events of the past cast a shadow over their charmed life together.
When lecturer Michael starts to mentor a new student, Ellie fears that history is repeating itself. As paranoia takes its ugly hold, it’s clear some things just can’t be forgotten…or forgiven.
The End.
Those two words hold so much weight … especially after a book like that.
I guessed a couple of twists and how it might play out but it was still shocking to uncover, I mean how can one person be so blind? And still despite the twists, and your feelings waning on one character, one you start to feel sorry for…well your original thoughts were correct. What a douche!
Still a lot of sex and repetition but it was still thrilling and I blasted it in one sitting, despite being tired and having the start of a migraine. I needed the end, I needed the conclusion and I needed to see how it would pan out for Ellie.
It was intense. I was flicking the pages over quickly, the spa scene was mental as I couldn’t believe the confrontation but I couldn’t believe it was the truth. Ellie has been written as an unreliable narrator and to an extent, she is. However, there is something darker going on and I feel so much for her, a little pawn in a game she had no idea was going on.
I loved reading these books as a serialisation because it cuts at the perfect part and it’s like a reading chunk to keep you on tenterhooks. Wanting more. It knows how to hook you in and keep you there.
I can’t believe it took me so long to read this series and I am so pleased I have now. A sandwich short of a picnic story! Loved it!
Until the next time xxx
