Rock Paper Scissors: The phenomenal new thriller and instant New York Times bestseller from the author of Sometimes I Lie

Product Information

The book is told from alternating POVs, Adam’s and Amelia’s. It is from these that we know their marriage is in trouble. But wait, there’s more! A third character (fourth if you count Bob) is introduced about a quarter the way in, Robin, residing near the chapel. She is up to something. It seems that there is certainly madness there, but is there a method to match? Finally, there are wifely letters written on the annual wedding anniversary, but never given to Adam. These let us follow the history of his marriage through his wife’s eyes. They are introduced by a “word of the year” that sets the tone for the chapters to come. They also note the category of gift that is considered traditional for each year. (A partial list is in EXTRA STUFF) In each of these entries the gift, at least the sort of gift, is significant in the ensuing narrative. The third match I strike briefly illuminates part of the wall, and I notice all the scratch marks on the surface. It looks like someone, or something, once tried to claw their way out of here. Are all the characters unreliable? Rose thinks so, and describes how Robin uses the chapel to set up a weird little game for Adam and Amelia, something that Adam realizes.

(subscription required) That said, the stuff that doesn’t entirely add up or things that are a little wonky are fairly minor and as a whole the book works. I think how much you’ll like this book will probably be dependent upon how much those little details bother you. I enjoyed it enough that I found it pretty easy to look past it and enjoy it for what it is. Read it or Skip it?

Comments

Was the point of October’s character to confuse us about who R. O’Brien was? What was the point of her death in the book, if nothing more ever came of it? To the outside world, Emily Bronte appears taciturn and unexceptional, but beneath the surface her mind is in a creative ferment. A violent phenomenon is about to burst forth that will fuse her imaginary world with the landscape of her beloved Yorkshire and change the literary world forever. Fifteen Wild Decembers is the dazzling second novel from a writer who has been compared to Shirley Hazzard and Graham Greene, and whose first novel was described as 'utterly stunning', 'mesmerizing' and hailed as 'a masterpiece.'

Seventh anniversary letter (copper): October has been found dead by suicide. Adam and his wife take a trip to New York.This is absolutely definitely completely the one of the best works make me adore and be jealous of extremely creative mind of an author! YOU SHOULDN’T MISS this book! I’m marking my words! I use the second to try and get my bearings, but I still can’t see the steps, and I’m struggling to get enough air into my lungs. After a string of thrillers that were just okay, I was excited to dive into Alice Feeney's latest. Her previous book, His & Hers, was one of my favorites from last year. I'm happy to say that the "meh" streak has been broken and Feeney has delivered a clever, gripping novel. The Times". 6 March 1924: 8. {{ cite journal}}: Cite journal requires |journal= ( help): Letter to the editor, from Miss F.C.Pringle I love a solidly narrated audiobook, especially if it’s a thriller which I think is a genre that lends itself well to audiobooks. So, this was an easy choice for what to review next.

Does anyone think it’s an obvious mistake by the author as to why Robin can’t get the ring off Amelia’s finger at the end even though Amelia was always twisting the ring as a nervous tic and Adam even said it never fit her? All of the illustrations at the start of each chapter in this novel were bespoke. Have you ever seen drawings in a psychological thriller before? Did you like them? Did you have a favorite?

Told between alternating perspectives, as well as through annual anniversary letters, the truth of their frightening holiday in the Highlands, as well as the true state of their marriage, comes to light.

Now, Adam, Amelia and their Labrador Bob, are on their way to Scotland, for a weekend away to SAVE their marriage, despite a blinding snowstorm. This complicated gothic thriller of dueling spouses and homicidal writers is cleverly plotted and neatly tied up. And WHAT is the point of the name whispering if it never gets explained, was it to hint that Robin’s mother is a ghost haunting the chapel?

You should probably disregard my review here. I am like the only person I know who did not enjoy this, and the only plausible explanation I have is that somehow I read a different book altogether. So my thoughts are of the book I did read, which may or may not be the same one everyone else did. Sixth anniversary letter (iron): October has opened doors for Adam, who is adapting another Henry Winter book for the screen. Adam and his wife spend their anniversary at October’s French villa.
