Arsen: A Broken Love Story by Mia Asher

2.0

I read this for our book club. Though I did not enjoy it, I was curious enough to finish it. Sadly most of the writing was just not engaging for me, and the first 70% felt really dragging. I did not see the point of the flashbacks (except maybe for the erotica). All the characters are either hateful or too good to be true. Some actions and decisions were also inconsistent to the characters’ personalities. I could have appreciated the honest portrayal of a grieving woman who just can’t have a baby, but the novel was not able to give it enough gravitas, except for using it as plot tool to justify all the cheating. I’m so sorry to everyone who claims to have loved this, it’s just not for me.
