First off, Elin Hilderbrand was recommended to me by a friend. Although The Perfect Couple was not the first book I've read of hers, I have yet to be disappointed.
The book is set in Nantucket, where a wealthy family's youngest son is set to be married. Throughout the time frame of the book, we see the secrets each of the characters have come to light either to make or break relationships. Elin did a fantastic job at not only bringing the reader into this exciting world of the rich but also providing background knowledge as to how each of the secrets unfolded before everything came crumbling down. Everyone is a suspect.
Started off really liking where this novel was going and then all of this sudden I got so bored. I enjoyed the side plots of all the characters and the lure of never really knowing who’s guilty. However, the book was 100 pages longer than it needed to be. And for the whole investigation to be turned over overnight and deemed an “accident”????? meh. Unrealistic and just a huge let down for all that there was to read. Idk it felt like there was soooooo much happening in so many side plots and nothing really wrapped itself up? It was good, not great. I’m still going to watch the Netflix movie of it.
