THE WIVES
Author: Tarryn Fisher
Reading Level: New Adult
Genre: Psychological Thriller
Released: December 30, 2019
Review Source: Netgalley

New York Times bestselling author Tarryn Fisher delivers a pulse-pounding, fast-paced suspense novel that will leave you breathless. A thriller you won’t be able to put down!

Thursday’s husband, Seth, has two other wives. She’s never met them, and she doesn’t know anything about them. She agreed to this unusual arrangement because she’s so crazy about him.

But one day, she finds something. Something that tells a very different—and horrifying—story about the man she married.

What follows is one of the most twisted, shocking thrillers you’ll ever read.

You’ll have to grab a copy to find out why.

The Wives, where do I even begin with this one?  Soooo, I finished reading this book a week ago and I haven't stopped saying "WTF" since.  Leave it to Tarryn Fisher to have my mind all kinds of messed up, in the best way possible.

I have to be vague here but at first I didn't like Thursday.  She was annoying to me and I just wanted to SCREAM at her to wake UP!!  I saw a past version of myself a little bit in Thursday and it definitely stirred several different emotions.  As time went on, my appreciation for Thursday grew.  Her persistence in getting to the bottom of things made me happy.  I was rooting for her.  Then, Tarryn Fisher pulled the rug from under my feet.

I loved this book, I loved every freaking second of it.  I loved the thrill, the annoyance, the DISCOMFORT because let me tell you there was some hella discomfort, and I loved the ending.  W T F.

I am rating this book 5 stars because it is so freaking good.  I finished it in 3 days because I had to take a couple of breaks from the overwhelming need to smack some of the characters.  This book was a crazy, effed up, amazing story written by one of my favorites so I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU GO GET THIS IT.

TRAILER

Excerpt

Dear Yara,

The bands in London, November 12th. Want to catch up?

David

So casual. So nonchalant. You’d think we were only acquaintances, that we’d once sipped a

couple of beers together instead of tattooing love on our skin and reciting marriage vows. I read

the e-mail again and analyze the shit out of it. How can I not? I count out the words: thirteen.

The punctuation: four. His name, my name. A flippant, casual turn of phrase: catch up. In the

end, there’s only so much psychoanalyzing you can do to a thirteen-word e-mail. I move on with

my life, feeling rather pathetic. But not before I e-mail him back. And okay, sure, I don’t move on

with my life. What does that even entail? Forgetting? Forgiving? Being happy? Besides, I know

what he wants to talk about. I know why he’s coming.

Hi David,

Yeah, sounds good. Let me know when and where.

Yara

My e-mail is a word shorter.

I’m that petty.

BAD MOMMY

Author: Tarryn Fisher
Release Date: TBD

Almost every day is a very bad day when you’re twenty-seven, your tits are starting to sag, there are lines creeping in around your eyes, and you realize that no one would like you if they actually knew who you really were. Fig Coxbury is fed up with her life: her cheating ex-husband, the excess fat around her waist, and most of all, her loneliness.

When Fig chances upon Jolene Avery, the embodiment of everything she’s ever wanted to be, Fig befriends her out of curiosity.

Fig soon begins to emulate all aspects of Jolene's life, because when you find someone who knows exactly who they are, you can't help but want to be just like them.

Or in Fig's case... become them.

Never Never
Authors: Colleen Hoover & Tarryn Fisher
Reading Level: Young Adult
Genres: Mystery | Romance | Suspense
Released: January 8th 2015
Review Source: Purchased

#1 New York Times bestselling author of Hopeless joins forces with the New York Times bestselling author of Mud Vein. Together, they have created a gripping, romantic tale unlike any other. "How odd to be made of flesh, balanced on bone, and filled with a soul you've never met." Charlize Wynwood and Silas Nash have been best friends since they could walk. They've been in love since the age of fourteen. But as of this morning...they are complete strangers. Their first kiss, their first fight, the moment they fell in love...every memory has vanished. "I don't care what our real first kiss was," he says. "That's the one I want to remember." Charlize and Silas must work together to uncover the truth about what happened to them and why. But the more they learn about the couple they used to be...the more they question why they were ever together to begin with. "I want to remember what it feels like to love someone like that. And not just anyone. I want to know what it feels like to love Charlie."

Never Never has been sitting on my shelf since I went to Las Vegas earlier this year to a signing.  I wasn't panning on reading it since it was personalized by Hoover & Fisher but something about the cover when I walked by it called out to me, it felt like the right kinda of book to read days before Halloween. And I was right! 

Never Never is not a large book by any means in volume but it speaks out to you like if it was. What is contained within the 156 pages is pretty good. And of course since the book is short, you are left with a cliffhanger, that has you ready for the next book in the series. The author duo really came up with a neat concept and you aren't given much so your guessing left and right wondering why they loose their memory and on the same day, same time. What I really loved was how Charlize and Silas have to learn to fall in love with one another again. It really is a great fast-paced quick read. Be ready to dive in to Never Never: Part two (Volume 2).

Never Never: Part 2
Never Never #2
Author: Colleen Hoover and Tarryn Fisher
Reading Level: Young Adult
Genre: Romance | Mystery
Released: May 17th 2015

Silas races against time as more truths unravel, while others twist tighter together. “Where are you, Charlie?” Never Never: Part Two is the continuation of the Never Never series.

Alright, so we’re back with our second installment of Never Never, and of course we’re slowly uncovering more information, slowly unveiling the past they can’t remember, and it’s always teasing us. So I’m definitely not going to talk much about the plot because everything we uncover is something you need uncover yourself, you need to help find Charlie right along with Silas.

The element of this book with the characters losing their memories every 48 hours is so perfect for publishing this in a novella series. You tend to forget small details over time, so going back to a story you haven’t picked up in a awhile to tend to forget small things, but you get to recover them slowly with Silas as he’s going over notes, retracing the small steps. I’ve come up with a billion different theories of how this is going to end and I’m absolutely nervous with the outcome since Tarryn Fisher’s hands are in the mixing pot.

“If it takes believing in dragons to find Charlie, then I’ll be the first to wield a sword in the face of its fire.”

Let’s be real, if you’re a fan of either Colleen or Tarryn you need to read Never Never, like now. A three part novella series that ignites that love/hate relationship you have with cliffhangers. Colleen and Tarryn have completely different writing styles but when they’re brought together they create something different, mysterious, and completely exhilarating. One thing is for sure I can’t wait till part 3 comes out and I can read all the parts together. Tell me your theories!
