Another 5 Star literary thriller from Elizabeth Brundage. I love the cover and how houses have great presence in her books. Houses and art and relationships , beautiful writing, thriller and horror , characters that are nuanced … yes I‘m a fan !

Tamra It‘s so fun to have an auto buy/read author! Stacked. 2mo

plemmdog I met the author once at a writing conference—she‘s a really lovely person. 2mo

LeahBergen I really must give this author a try. 👍 2mo

Cathythoughts @LeahBergen She deals with quite heavy subjects. I love the overall experience of her books 2mo

Cathythoughts @Megabooks Me too. I hope she is busy writing ! 2mo

BkClubCare I just read about a book written as a conversation between a house and a painting 🖼 hanging in house! Your comment about liking old houses reminds me. I need to add the title to my list before I forget. 😆 2mo

LKK526 I read this quite some time ago and remember really enjoying it 2mo

Doctor's Wife | Elizabeth Brundage

he woke early , before dawn and went walking in the long grass behind the house. He liked to witness the rising sun and the wailing geese crossing the red sky. . He moved slowly through the day , observing the various details of their life in the house. The way the cream fell from the pitcher … he said her hands reminded him of birds.. the sun crawling across the table..the light attracted him as much as the darkness

I love her writing 👌

BarbaraBB Great quote. I couldn‘t resist any longer and bought a copy too 🙀 2mo

Cathythoughts @BarbaraBB Look forward to your thoughts 👍 2mo

LeahBergen Lovely. And I‘ve had “wailing geese” around here lately, too! 2mo

Cathythoughts @LeahBergen if they are migratory maybe they came from here .. I‘m not sure about their habits 🤔😁 2mo

If you like literary thrillers you MUST start reading Brundage! It‘s hard to believe this is a debut.

It has a captivating start as a doctor is beaten, drugged, and driven off the side of a road. But he is “saved” from death by a twisted woman. Then it goes back several months to show how they got to the opening chapter. (A device I love!) I found the doctor‘s wife to be the least interesting character, but there other very compelling ones! ⬇️

vivastory I have not read her, but I also love the device of opening with the crime & working backwards! This sounds fantastic. Stacked! 2mo

Megabooks @BarbaraBB for sure! I definitely think you‘d enjoy it. 2mo

Megabooks @DogMomIrene I love the cover too. I miss covers like this. The book is 2005. I just don‘t care for all the new ones. 2mo

BarbaraBB I so agree about today‘s covers! They often seem so childish! 2mo

TrishB @BarbaraBB @Megabooks I‘m enjoying it so far 👍🏻 2mo

Megabooks @Cathythoughts I‘m reading quickly and am somewhere around 250 now. Is it bad that I find Annie the least interesting character of the bunch?? I‘m wondering how it will get back to the beginning. 🤔🤔 2mo

Cathythoughts Ya , there is something I‘m not getting about Annie. I agree with you there … I‘ve had a busy busy week , so I haven‘t progressed much further, but I‘m looking forward to getting back to it. 2mo

Megabooks @Cathythoughts I hope you‘re able to get some reading time in this weekend. How is your granddaughter? I‘m sure she‘s keeping you busy! 💜💜 2mo

Cathythoughts Yes! Granddaughter is lovely and she is keeping me on my toes .. 👍🥰 2mo
