The Perfect Couple

"So many layers, so many characters, so many angles. The author takes us on a journey through several families colliding in Nantucket for a wedding, revealing twist after twist until the very last page. I will read more of this author."

"The book was an easy beach read. I enjoyed it until the ending which was truly a bust for me. "

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"Great read! Every chapter was a new twist in the story 😱"

"I was looking for a summer mystery romance book and The Perfect Couple hit every target. The mystery plot was laid out well. I was suspicious of every character because everyone had secrets and flaws. I loved how the romance plots were written. We get to read Karen and Bruce’s love story, Celeste and Otis’, and Celeste and Shooter’s morally ambiguous love story as well. "

"This is a long one but worth it! Love the murder mystery style and the details from all the characters. "

"So many twists that I didn't know how it would end until the bitter end. Definitely an author that I will be reading more from now! My first book of hers!"

"Read this book because the TV adaptation is coming to Netflix in September. I read it quickly, was very interested the entire time, but didn’t love the ending. I am unsure if this is because I don’t read a lot of mysteries or because it just wasn’t a good ending! Regardless, highly recommend."

"Just finished Remarkable Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt. It’s a fun read written from an extremely unique perspective…by an Octopus. "
