A Most Anticipated Book by: Crime Reads, Buzzfeed, Popsugar, Bustle, New York Post

From "master of clever misdirection" (Kirkus Reviews) Aimee Molloy, author of the New York Times bestseller The Perfect Mother, comes an irresistible psychological thriller featuring a newly married woman whose life is turned upside down when her husband goes missing.

A handsome psychotherapist. His lonely wife. And in his home office ceiling, a vent ...

You'd listen too, wouldn't you? (You know you would.)

Newlyweds Sam Statler and Annie Potter are head over heels, and excited to say good-bye to New York City and start a life together in Sam's sleepy hometown upstate. Or, it turns out, a life where Annie spends most of her time alone while Sam, her therapist husband, works long hours in his downstairs office, tending to the egos of his (mostly female) clientele. Little does Sam know that through a vent in his ceiling, every word of his sessions can be heard from the room upstairs. The pharmacist's wife, contemplating a divorce. The well-known painter whose boyfriend doesn't satisfy her in bed. Who could resist listening? Everything is fine until the French girl in the green mini Cooper shows up, and Sam decides to go to work and not come home, throwing a wrench into Sam and Annie's happily ever after.

Showcasing Molloy's deft ability to subvert norms and culminating in the kind of stunning twist that is becoming her trademark, Goodnight Beautiful is a thrilling tale of domestic suspense that not only questions assumptions but defies expectations.

My wife bought this book, I think – and the premise sounded interesting so I picked it up. At first I thought I wouldn’t be interested, but soon enough I found Goodnight Beautiful by Aimee Molloy engaging, and an easy read as well.

The plot, while not complex, is everything in the book. At first I thought I missed a thing or too because every chapter has some sort of twist, distraction, or misdirection. It took me a few chapters to realize that I’m actually not missing anything and that being a bit confused is part of the experience. The author managed to keep me guessing, making assumptions which turned out to be wrong and kept me reading.

Ms. Molloy refers to Stephen King’s Misery , and her story is a bit similar (but not really). She gives credit where credit is do, embracing King’s story and refers to it freely.

The purposefully confusing narrative eventually comes to an end, but the schtick has gotten old way before that. It was still a good read, and the book kept me guessing for most of the narrative.

What I noticed is that Ms. Molloy managed to confuse me when it comes to the narrators of several of the chapters. For the majority of the book, an unreliable female narrates the book.

It was not a disturbing book by any means, it’s filled with suspense and mystery while has a cozy air to it. The ending seemed to be rushed and neat, however. This book which had me going for the majority of it, ended with a predictable whisper – but it was still well worth my reading time. ( )

Well that was definitely a twisty tale. Enjoyable and fast paced. ( )

3 1/2 rounded up to four, stars.
The story is well written but after the first part (there are 3 in the book) the story is rather predictable.
The first part and the first couple of chapters in part two carry the book. ( )

Page turner. Maybe be careful how much you post about yourself online. ( )

This story is told from three different perspectives - Dr. Statler, a psychologist; Annie Potter, his wife; and Dr. Statler's landlord. They are all liars, and they are all keeping secrets. There are several twists in the story, but I have to wonder how Stephen King feels about having elements from one of his book storylines incorporated into this one. Although this book held my interest, and I whizzed through it, I was bothered by the Stephen King tie-in - not very original. ( )
