The Couple by Sarah Mitchell: review

The Couple
Surprising until the very last page. The Couple has a gripping plot that will captivate mystery and romance lovers. You just don't know what's going on. There were pages I had to read twice because I couldn't believe my eyes.

The main character Claire is an immigration lawyer with a dark past whose job makes the story even more interesting. In spite of being engaged, she isn't besotted by her fiance Angus, a serious hotel owner, so they are a bit far from being the perfect couple. They buy a house from an attractive man and Claire's life changes in unexpected ways.

The book is full of twists an turns and even if it is fast-paced you should read it slowly or you may not be able to understand how complex the story is.

I would like to thank NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review.

Becoming by Michelle Obama: review.

Becoming
Politics aside, Michelle Obama is a woman I have always admired for being strong, brave and most of all for fighting for what she believed in. After reading her novel, I admire her even more. The resilience she showed in the face of adversity is praiseworthy.

What's more, she tried hard to make her "Let's Move!" campaign work, contributing to the well-being of a whole nation.

The novel is not entertaining, I don't think it is meant to be, but it is interesting and enlightening. I just wish it had had a happier ending.
