Story
Gary Bruce is a slacker of epic loserness. Can’t keep a job. His friends are as bad as he is. No girlfriend. No direction. Gary Bruce is also a werewolf. Desperate for any kind of success, Gary decides to out himself on YouTube. The moment this ordinary guy goes full-on fur, fangs, and claws, the world can’t get enough of him. He’s the biggest thing on social media, he’s on every talk show, book and movie deals fall in his lap, and for the first time in his life he gets invited to all the best parties. But celebrity is a special kind of voracious monster.

Story
When you listen to this audiobook, you will make many assumptions. You will assume you are listening to a story about a jealous ex-wife. You will assume she is obsessed with her replacement - a beautiful, younger woman who is about to marry the man they both love. You will assume you know the anatomy of this tangled love triangle. Assume nothing. Twisted and deliciously chilling, The Wife Between Us exposes the secret complexities of an enviable marriage - and the dangerous truths we ignore in the name of love.

You’ve never met the other wives. None of you know each other, and because of this unconventional arrangement, you can see your husband only one day a week. But you love him so much you don’t care. Or at least that’s what you’ve told yourself. But one day, while you’re doing laundry, you find a scrap of paper in his pocket—an appointment reminder for a woman named Hannah, and you just know it’s another of the wives.

Clare and Henry have known each other since Clare was six and Henry was 36. They were married when Clare was 23 and Henry was 31. Impossible but true, because Henry is one of the first people diagnosed with Chrono-Displacement Disorder: periodically his genetic clock resets and he finds himself misplaced in time, pulled to moments of emotional gravity from his life, past and future. His disappearances are spontaneous, his experiences unpredictable, alternately harrowing and amusing.

Marianne has a life others dream of. A beautiful townhouse on the best street in the neighbourhood. Three bright children who are her pride and joy. Sometimes her past still hurts: losing her mother early, growing up in foster care. But her husband, Simon, is always there. A successful surgeon, he’s the envy of every woman they’ve ever met. Flowers, gifts, trips to France: nothing is too good for his family. Then Simon says another woman’s name. The way he lingers on it, Caroline, gives Marianne a shudder of suspicion, but she knows it’s nothing - she can’t entertain this flash of paranoia.

Is it possible to write a sidesplitting novel about the breakup of the perfect marriage? If the writer is Nora Ephron, the answer is a resounding yes. For in this inspired confection of adultery, revenge, group therapy, and pot roast, the creator of Sleepless in Seattle reminds us that comedy depends on anguish as surely as a proper gravy depends on flour and butter.

Depressing AF
Not sure how anyone enjoyed this. I personally could go the rest of my life without having to hear a couple bicker back and forth for an hour. Also not at all funny. I felt like I must have listened to something completely different that a lot of these reviews.

Surprisingly insightful and funny in all the right places
This book may appeal more to someone with more than a few years of marriage behind them, but the premise - of Bounty doing market research with a recently deceased married couple who switched brand loyalty just before they died - creates unexpected opportunities to get to the heart of the challenges of marriage and knowing your spouse. An hour well-spent.

What a great short story, the storyline was perfect. It definitely was an "original" one! I love the married couple & how the questions they are being asked help them realize so very much about their marriage.
I absolutely recommend this, it's a really great, ironic shirt story.

Witty and original story of Bounty paper towels
This is a quirky story of a recently deceased couple being interviewed by a market research analyst on behalf of Bounty paper towels. They look back over their lives and contemplate what went wrong whilst answering questions about brand loyalty and their attitude towards cost, absorbency, sheet size (apparently smaller sheets are a false economy) and strength. This is highly original and it genuinely made me laugh out loud. I still prefer Fiesta though. I don't know, somehow it has a nicer feel than other brands.

This short story takes an interesting approach to uncovering the issues in a marriage with a survey into the couples paper towel use. It’s very well written and definitely enjoyable.
