Review: I read Reconstructing Amelia a few years back and really enjoyed Kimberly's writing style and was so excited to read A Good Marriage. This is a slow burn about marriage, power dynamics, and protecting your family. I loved the multiple POVs from the characters, dual timelines, and the courtroom transcripts added another layer. I read a lot in the domestic suspense/legal thriller genre and thought this was well paced, smart, and originial.
