Do you ever feel like your life got away from you somehow?

A short story by Taylor Jenkins Reid, this hit so close to home.

Aside from Fredrik Backman, TJR is one of my new favorite author. I'll read anything she writes. I'm convinced TJR's books are amazing because she sucks you into the world of her characters. She makes you believe they are real people, which says a lot about her writing style. First page of this story and I was engrossed.

Read this in an hour (it's only 88 pages and is free on KU). For some reason, I was teary eyed all throughout the time I was reading.

oh my god. i loved this. i didn't cry but i got pretty close. this was just such a bittersweet little story told in epistolary format; letters written back and forth between man and a woman whose respective spouses are having an affair with each other. they piece together literal evidence of the affair and develop a special relationship in the process. i just thought this was so well done. i could see it working as a full length novel, but also think it works just fine as a novella. TJR got me again with another banger.
