A review by cheryl1213
Husband and Wife by Leah Stewart

4.0

Husband and Wife is a novel by Leah Stewart. The story begins with the main character, Sarah, learning that her husband's recent novel was partly based on personal experience...experience cheating on her. The story follows how this revelation effects Sarah as it leads her to contemplate the adult she has become and other paths her younger self could have taken. The plot itself didn't wow me, but I really loved Stewart's prose. The writing carried me through the book and fleshed out well-developed characters so I enjoyed the journey even though I wasn't overly drawn by the basic plot.

I'd have picked 3.5 stars if I could...4.5 for writing, 2.5 for plot.

(This review is based on an early copy of the book sent to me by HarperCollins).
