Rage before beauty....."Perfect Ten" is Jacqueline Ward's debut thriller about a woman's obsessive search for revenge and the effects of her social media retaliations against her cheating husband after a bitter and intense divorce.
I was just in the mood for some lighter reading having read some recent dark thrillers and as I started reading I thought 'this book is perfect' just like the title suggests -engrossing, intriguing and totally realistic - hell hath no fury like a woman scorned and all that! However. It got very soon, very repetitive to a point I was struggling to continue. I did persevere and to be honest nothing was gained by my dedication, I lost a few hours of decent reading time, going over the same storyline time and time again.
The plot did have potential and I was very keen to read at the start, I just found it lacked depth and repeated itself too often.
To be fair, this isn't my normal genre, it's so much more women's fiction than a thriller in my opinion and although it will be liked by many reader, it just wasn't for me. Jacqueline Ward's writing style is excellent and very easy to follow, she's known for her stories about strong women and their loves and lives and I can see her writing many further novels along these lines and I do wish her well with her first 'thriller'.
