I've just finished My Husband's Wife and in my opinion it's badly written that it made me angry
I have read books by Alice Feeney before and never felt this way about her writing. It feels to me like she has completely and coincidentally changed the write she writes to a more simplistic style.
My Husband's Wife feels to me like a bunch of randomly generated plots for three different books, all joined up with incredibly basic grammar and rhythm such as "Twilight is my happy place. That thin line of time that separates night from day, and day from night. Twilight. Sunset. Nightfall." I noticed that she also took famous quotes and reworded them (the most obvious ones: "I suppose we’re all actors on the stage of our own lives, some of us are just better at it than others." lifted from Shakespeare, and "Nobody wants to be themselves anymore, everybody wants to be somebody else. Including me." from Oscar Wilde; "Sometimes you just have to accept the shitty hand life dealt you and play to win anyway." from Bukowski)
I am not a picky reader and I'm not expecting War and Peace in this genre, but this book is, in my opinion, so bad. Am I the only one in this camp?
