The Daughter-in-Law by Shalini Boland
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
The hasty marriage of Seb and Caroline comes with many secrets. Will the couple be able to overcome their past?
I’m a fan of Shalini Boland, but this novel didn’t keep me in suspense as her previous novels did. And the overall plot of the novel didn’t make sense, especially Caroline’s storyline. Her reactions didn’t match her backstory, and her overall act was very confusing and over-exaggerated. All the remaining characters were good. I loved the twist with the parents, that was a great unexpected touch.
Overall, I didn’t find the novel very captivating. I guess I’m more used to the author’s books being packed with twists and turns which has me asking lots and lots of questions throughout the story but not this one.
Thank you, NetGalley for an advanced copy of this novel.
