Alice Buckle is a typical housewife. She doesn't have the most exciting life, but it's bearable. Her typical schedule is interrupted, however, when she decides to participate in a research study. She is dubbed "Wife 22" and put in contact with "Researcher 101" who is supposed to answer her questions about the research along the way. Before long, her chat with Researcher 101 begins to feel illicit and she gets more and more secretive. How long can Alice keep this up before her family catches on or she decides to take things with Researcher 101 too far?

Alice's character was okay. She was hard to connect to because she was so analytical about her children, yet failed to make an important connection about her daughter. She didn't seem to be trying with her husband anymore, and her marriage wasn't holding up well. Much of her energy went into this research study.

William, her husband, comes off as a little too brusque and forceful at times, but readers will love him by the end of WIFE 22. Readers will be introduced to multiple other characters. For the most part, the characters are well-developed and dynamic, readers may wish that Alice was more likable.

The plot itself is very unique. The title makes it sound like either a formidable divorced man or polygamy, but WIFE 22 is anything but those two things. WIFE 22 takes a look at what happens when a marriage is slowly eroding and how social media, like Facebook, can affect relationships.

WIFE 22 is hard to put down and the ending will satisfy you.
