Not for me - but you might like it
Thank you to BookishFirst and Atria Books for providing me with a copy of this book for review.
Anatomy of a Scandal takes a deep look into the marriage of a prominent politician and his wife. Originally meeting in college, the couple face a scandal together two decades later. This courtroom drama has a couple of surprises along the way and is told from several points of view.
This book was not one I enjoyed but I think a lot of other readers will like this for the reasons I did not. I am an American reader and this book takes place within the British government. This is a subject that I’m not familiar with. I felt lost at times and am sure I missed various references because of cultural differences. The government and court system are prominent in this book and I wish I had a better grasp of how they worked.
It took me a while to get through this book. There are several story lines that come together nicely but I was through the first half of the book before I started to see how the story could come together.
Trigger warning: rape
