Ah yes, the sequel to The Perfect Marriage - otherwise known as "How to make sure I never trust anyone again: part 2."
Let's get one thing straight: The Perfect Divorce is still a solid thriller. The drama? Still juicy. The characters? Still deeply chaotic. But did it hit quite as hard as the first one? Not for me. Think of it like reheating leftover pizza: still good, still satisfying, but missing that fresh-out-of-the-oven-energy.
The story picks up with some familiar faces, more secrets and yes - even more dram. I appreaciated the continuation of closoure (because hello, I needed ANSWERS), but parts felt slightly predictabile this time around. The twist didn't quite punch me in the fave like book one did, but it did give me thaat subtle gasp-and-stare-into-the-void moment. You know the one.
Final thoughts: 3.5/5 Bookmarks. Worth reading if you enjoyed The Perfect Marriage, you'll still have fun here. The secrets and the "wait, WHAT?!" moments - they're all present and accounted for. Just maybe don't expect it to completely wreck your weekend plans like the first one did.
