About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
From the outside, she has an enviable life: a successful career, stunning looks, a beautiful house in the suburbs, two healthy children, and most importantly, an ideal husband. After fifteen years together, she is still besotted with him. But she's never quite sure that her passion is reciprocated.
Determined to keep their relationship perfect, she meticulously prepares for every encounter they have, always taking care to make her actions seem effortless. She watches him attentively, charting every mistake and punishing him accordingly to help him improve. And she tests him - setting traps to make sure that he still loves her just as much as he did when they first met.
Until one day she realizes she may have gone too far...
With the surprise of Gone Girl, the bleakness of The Talented Mr Ripley and the sinister charm of the Netflix thriller You, My Husband is a bold and exhilarating story of passion and the dark secrets that lie beneath a seemingly healthy marriage.
Critic reviews
'One of the most daring, provocative, unnervingly intimate thrillers... Few writers besides Ruth Rendell and Patricia Highsmith can evoke domestic unease with such sangfroid; fewer still can make it such delirious fun.' A. J. Finn, #1 NYT bestselling author of The Woman in the Window
'The exceptional My Husband has everything I look for in a novel: chic, beguiling and deeply unhinged.' (Juno Dawson)

Everything worth it for the end
One of the most interesting and unique books I’ve come across in a while. Perfectly matched narration. Sometimes it drags on a little but the payoff at the end is great

Very good for what it is
I can see this is a great portrayal of obsessive love and the twist was excellent and unexpected. I did find it dragged though, I wasn't gripped, despite being interested in the ending. Glad I listened, don't think I'll reread though

Obsession
Couldn’t stop listening. Other reviews seem to spotlight the ending, but I urge you to go along for the journey because the writing and narration is brilliant. Ending is good; it’s not disappointing but not as jaw-dropping as I hoped but to me it was all worth it for the few hours of listening.

Annoying accent of narrator
Great writing but really irritating narrator. It would have been so much better with a French reader.

Gaslighter
You have to wait for the ending but it’s worth it. I love the obsession of this book with a sprinkling of juvenile behaviour.

Took me by surprise!
This was the best random find, it took me completely by surprise and I massively enjoyed the ending! It’s a great short book, it isn’t too short as there was nothing missing - loved it!

Not nice people
Genuinely intriguing at times but also frustrating - the listener has to go through what the wife goes through in maticulous detail because that’s what the book is about . Th detail of a race for power in a relationship
