Till Death Do Us Part

Summary: The author of The Girls Are All So Nice Here returns with a thriller set in the vineyards of Napa Valley that asks: what happens when the husband you thought died years ago shows up alive?

Ten years ago, June’s beloved husband drowned on their honeymoon, his body never found. Now, a decade later, June is finally ready to move on. She owns a natural wine bar in Brooklyn and is engaged to a patient, supportive man named Kyle. She’s excited to finally begin a new chapter in her life and start a family.

But out of the blue, she sees him—Josh, her first husband. Is this just a hallucination from the guilt June carries about finally moving on, or is it possible that her husband never died in the first place?

June tries to forget about this vision, chalking it up to grief and nerves, but soon enough, she stumbles across a website for a winery in Napa, and the owner in the photo is identical to her dead husband. With her upcoming wedding looming and a fiancé who’s already worried she hasn’t quite left her past behind, June secretly flies to Napa for answers. But she’s not prepared for all the secrets she’s about to unlock because everything she thought she knew about her first love is a lie.

Traveling With T’s Thoughts:

After mostly enjoying The Girls Are All So Nice Here, I decided to preorder Till Death Do Us Part.

Well, I must say that I was pretty disappointed and ho-hum about this book.

I like wine, but damn… I could not hear about wine for like a decade and be ok.

What I liked:

The cover was really pretty!

I did like the narrators!

The ending. I thought June’s story ended on a positive note.

What I didn’t like:

The twist. I have to say it really didn’t make sense, it was meant to shock for shock’s sake and I was not a fan. There was also a character or 2 who made very selfish choices that just didn’t work for me either.

Bottom line: I finished the book, but it was a struggle at times. Might check out her next book via library instead of wasting a precious audiobook credit.
