Welcome to my stop on the blog tour for The After Wife!

Review:

This book has such a fascinating premise, imagine being able to leave behind an eerily human like robot after your death. It sounds so crazy and far fetched but also sort of possible at the same time. It was such a fresh, unique storyline and way more emotional than I would’ve guessed.

This is told via alternate perspectives giving you a birds eye look at how one family is coping with the loss of one of their own. Hunter did an outstanding job of capturing a family in the throes of grief and it was a very emotive read. The cast of characters are memorable and genuine and this was just an overall highly enjoyable read.

The After Wife in three words: Evocative, Moving and Beautiful.

Overall rating: 4.5/5

Thanks to the publisher for my review copy.
