The Thirteen Husbands by Greer MacAllister
The Thirteen Husbands is based on real life Aimee Crocker who was from a wealthy family and considered a Bohemian and American mystic. She was very scandalous and known for having many lovers/husbands and throwing extravagant parties. She inherited 10 million dollars (what would essentially be about $300 million dollars today) at a very young age when her father died. Her inheritance gave her the confidence to live life her way. After her first divorce a mystic told Aimee that her thirteenth husband would bury her.
I really enjoyed the author’s previous novel The Arctic Fury so I was eager to read this one. I listened to the audio and honestly I would have preferred another narrator. I probably would have enjoyed it more if I physically read it. I did enjoy learning about Crocker and her eccentricities. All in all it was a solid read.
3 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you NetGalley for providing an early audio ARC in exchange for an honest review!!
