I enjoyed that it moved quickly and I wanted to know what happened between the 3 ladies involved. It took a couple chapters to see the full plot line, but it was great to have chapters flip-flop to see all perspectives. I really enjoyed that I felt like the character development was strong in that I had a good idea of all points of views. Each chapter was clearly stated as who the narrator was, so easy to keep track. I have never read anything by this author before but enjoyed the book and show more would highly recommend. show less
A bunch of unlikeable people participate in a series of weirdly detached sex scenes.

I found one 'supporting character', Amanda, to relate to and kept reading to see precisely how everyone would be fucked over.

To be fair, I was never less than entertained.
"People who loved each other had to forgive each other all the time... but when did an act become unforgivable?"

Jessica, Lark and Holly are intelligent, savvy and attractive women but that's not all they have in common - they're all also unknowingly involved with the same man. Jonathan Mitchell Wright III may have them all thinking she's his one and only but he can only keep the women a secret from each other for so long....

If you're looking for a fast-paced, juicy domestic drama, The Three show more Mrs. Wrights is it. The women in the book are all relatable and you can see why they might overlook some seemingly obvious clues something was amiss because they thought they had found Mr. Right in Mr. Wright. The way Jon/Jack/Trip manages to juggle three women in his life was highly entertaining and I liked how Linda Graff used "quotes" from his TED Talk to kick off each chapter. But what I I really loved was the way he eventually got his comeuppance!

This is a fun read that may not go super deep (I really wanted to know WHY Jon/Jack/Tripp was doing what he did) but it will keep you turning the pages to find out what happens next. The story reminded me of something I'd be addicted to in a true crime podcast and I could totally see it being made into a movie.

Thanks to NetGalley, Lake Union Publishing and the author for an advanced copy to review.

This reads like a thinly veiled Princess Diana rip-off, with William (the first-born/the heir) & Harry (the one who marries an American celebrity) smushed into one character. It apparently wants to be both romance and mystery—it falls more heavily to mystery, I suppose. It was OK, but didn't wow me. I would have preferred something more original.
