This is the first book that I have read by this author and it won’t be the last! I was very intrigued by the description and I was hooked right from the beginning. I could not imagine my husband having two other wives and loving him so much to go along with it. I found this to be a real page turner that I just couldn’t put down. I needed to see what made this main character tick. This was dark and twisty and highly recommended. I had the pleasure of meeting her at Book Expo this year and I am looking forward to her next book. #thewives #tarrynfisher #netgalley

Wow.... this was a page turner. Seth has three wives, Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. But, this is not your typical sister wife situation. Each wife doesn’t know the other. Not the typical polygamist family but it is working for our narrator, Thursday. Then, Thursday has found out the other wives’ identities and discovers things aren’t always what they seem.

I finished this novel in one sitting! Dark, twisty and emotionally thought provoking i really enjoyed it.

This is a novel that will stay with me

Imagine that your husband has two other wives that you agreed to. You have never met them but you know all about them. You are the Thursday wife. Every Thursday you are the perfect wife, you never nag or complain, and dinner is always perfect. Your husband is sure to love you best of all!

Then one day you find a scrap of paper that tells you the name of the Monday wife. You know she is pregnant but you never knew her name until now. You agreed that you all would remain anonymous. Do you track her down, maybe even start a friendship with her. What should you do when Monday starts showing up with tell-tale bruises?

Exactly who is your husband and how far are you willing to go to protect the other wives and yourself? And who is the third wife?

Seems like a straightforward premise, but it isn’t. It is so much more than what you see on the surface. It is masterly woven together and as soon as you think you have figured it all out… bamm… it is completely different than you thought. This is a wild ride and I loved every minute!

I finished this book almost a week ago and I'm still trying to determine what I read. Tarryn Fisher has the ability to leave you confused, beaten and bruised and craving more at the end of her books. I felt like I just finished a marathon and I'm still ready for another sprint. The Wives was twisted, dark and a total mind contorting book that told a story that left me confused on who I should believe. I felt as if I was going crazy with the character. I loved this book and I'm thrilled to see Tarryn work with a publisher on this one. Excited to see what the future holds. This will be one book that I recommend as soon as it hits stores!

I am having a difficult time reviewing this title without giving away endings and plot twists. I will say that Tarryn Fisher had the premise and the set up for a great read, but this book didn't make it there. This is an admittedly personal peeve of mine, but the fact is that it helped to make me dislike the book and is part of the reason that I will not be recommending it to anyone: there were far too many instances of terms like "unborn baby," and then references to the "unborn baby" dying or being dead. I would have been less irritated by it had the thoughts been only from the woman who experienced the miscarriage, but when those words seemingly are attributed to a medical professional, I am done.

Without giving the ending away, it felt sloppy. I love suspense novels, but I kept finding myself thinking, "Please just end this already" long before I read the ending, which was just weak. I am a fan of twists and turns and "Wow, I didn't see that coming!" This ending, however, seemed more like someone wrote one book and then took another book's ending and slapped it down just to be finished.

This was my first time reading this author and if this book is indicative of her writing, I suspect it may well be my last time reading her work. With that said, I do very much appreciate being provided an ARC by NetGalley and the publisher and I wish that my review could be more positive, but this is an honest review.

Have you ever finished a book and then wanted to start it again immediately? I have read very few books that I would start over right away. This book kept me so drawn in and I was scared I would miss something. The writing of this book is incredible. This book was brilliant. Can you tell I liked it? I preordered 3 for some family members and I cannot wait for them to read it so we can discuss it. I also put it on my book club to read list so that everyone can read it. Thank you!!

Thanks NetGalley and Graydon house for a preview of this book in exchange for a review.
Seth has three wives, referred to as Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. The narrator, Thursday, doesn’t mind because he’s such a catch. She also has a career as a nurse. Then one day she finds a note with a name and date on it in one of Seth’s pockets. That sparks her curiosity and propels the plot at breakneck speed.

That’s all I can reveal because anything else would give away too much – spoiler city.

I’d not read Fisher before, but now I plan to delve into all her past titles. Something very scintillating goes on in that mind of hers. I raced through this book in two days and would highly recommend it to any thriller aficionada. It’s haunting, at times terrifying, but in the end a true thought-provoker.

Thursday is Seth's wife, but so are Monday and Tuesday. Thursday has never met the other two, and is fine with this arrangement. At least she thinks she is, until she finds a note in Seth's pocket about an appointment with Hannah, one of his other wives. Thursday becomes curious, and seeks Hannah out. She discovers that Hannah's husband leaves bruises on her, but Seth has never done that to Thursday. She wants to help Hannah, and also find Seth's third wife and know what her life with Seth is like. This novel will blow you away!

What a psychological thriller. This book had me in the edge of my seat. Did not see the end coming. Quick read, enjoyed it.

OMG thank you, thank you Netgalley for the ARC.
This book is unputabledown. It is a thriller that I could not stop reading. It kept my attention through the entire book. I was on the edge of my seat, swiping at the pages because I had to find out what will happen next.

This is my 4th book by Tarryn Fisher, Mudvein and Marrow are 2 of my favorites, but goodness The Wives just topped them both. The writing is so well thought out and the flow of events so well executed. This book was amazing. I cannot say enough good things about it.

I liked this novel right up to the ending and then felt a bit betrayed. I won't spoil it by telling you the ending, but if you read the book I'd be interested in knowing what you think about it. That said, I was intrigued and engaged right up to the last page. The premise was great, and the U turn halfway through kept me thoroughly engaged. But that last scene, just no.

I've loved every book that Tarryn Fisher has written. Her books draw you in right away. My only problem is once I start reading, I read it to quick and then I'm done! I loved this book and can't wait for her next one!

I'm pretty sure Tarryn Fisher is crazy. I'm in her PLN group, so I know she will take that as a compliment. I love her writing. She's real. I can't tell you much about this book without giving it away. It was a fast read, kept my attention from page one to the end, and trust me, you don't want to miss that ending. Another 5 Star book for me. Tarryn is for sure, my favorite author. Thank you for the ARC. AMAZING!!

The story is told from the point of view of Thursday, the second wife of Seth. His other two wives are known as Monday and Tuesday. Thursday plays the perfect wife, welcoming Seth on Thursdays with a home-cooked meal, great conversation and makes him the focus of her life.......for the one day he spends with her. She becomes curious about Monday and Tuesday and that is when her life begins to unravel. There are many twists and turns and the action never slows.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I went in blind not even read the blurb. This will be a vague review because I don’t want to spoil it. Before I begin, that ending was hands down the best work I’ve ever read from Tarryn. This was true Tarryn Fisher style. It was a thrilling ride and I couldn’t tell what was up from down. I didn’t know what was going to happen or where I was being led because in the end I know what my mind was coming up with was going to be completely wrong! So I just had to trust that the blow wouldn’t be too bad. Tarryn didn’t soften it either. I really enjoyed this one!!

Arc provided via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

This book, in typical Tarryn Fisher style, hooked me from page one and makes this dark world she paints as lyrical and sweetly vicious as her fans have come to expect her work to be. Beautifully written, heartbreaking, and raw- you won't be able to put it down even when you want to. The Wives broke my brain- in the absolute best way.

Tarryn Fisher has a knack for telling you a story that you cannot anticipate the twists and turns, and The Wives was no exception. This was a psychological thriller so immersive that I completely lost myself and consumed her words in a single day. The Wives is the kind of book that as soon as you finish, you want to go back and start all over again; it's a twisting tale that doesn't beg to not be put down, it demands it.

OH MY GOD!!! I lOVED this book. It was my first Tarryn Fisher, though she's been on my radar a while because I am a fan of Colleen Hoover. Anyway...this book had me riveted from the get go and then at the halfway point it took a turn that reminded me of Dennis Lehane...then THAT ENDING...Holy Hell, I DID NOT see that coming!!! WOW!!!
