Blogmas 2023: Non Holiday Audiobook Review: The Missing Husband {Natasha Boydell}
This is the 2nd Natasha Boydell book I’ve listened to as an audiobook. You can read my (scathing) review of The Woman Next Door HERE (or maybe don’t….).
Goodreads Synopsis of The Missing Husband {Natasha Boydell}:
Kate and Pete have been the perfect couple ever since they were teenagers. Fifteen years later they have two young daughters, live in a beautiful London townhouse and seem like they have it all. But one day, Pete leaves for work and never comes home.
In a note Kate discovers, he confesses that he’s been unhappy for a long time and that he’s met someone else.
Distraught, Kate later learns that he has left everything, including his mobile phone, behind and sets out to learn the truth about her husband’s disappearance.
But is she prepared for what she will learn?
When nothing is as it seems, who can you trust?
Non Holiday Audiobook Review of The Missing Husband {Natasha Boydell}:
Well I liked this one much more than The Woman Next Door so I’ll give it that.
The Woman Next Door was boring…aaaaand so was The Missing Husband. In fact, 95 % of this book is NOT a psychological thriller. The twists came right at the end but until then, it was just…a story. Not twisty, not deep, just…a story. Does that make sense?
I had lots of predictions and none of them ended up being correct which I love BUT what I DON’T love is that I think my predictions would have made a better story 😉
I HATED, HATED, HATED the voices of the children. Audiobooks are weird, the narrator often has to do many different voices. I didn’t mind the voices that she gave the other adults but the voices that she used for the kids? It was like listening to the most annoying children’s’ cartoon voices over and over (think Calliou…IYKYK)
Overall this book was fine, eh. I never really cared about any of the characters, so I never really cared about what happened to any of them.
Side Note: Three main female characters all with similar sounding names. Claire, Kate, Karen. How stupid is that??? Like, there are millions and millions of names in this world…why pick similar sounding ones to confuse your readers?
Book Coffee Happy Epilogue:
Forgettable characters, forgettable storylines…moving on.
