I still can't believe THE WEDNESDAY GROUP is Sylvia True's debut novel. I was hooked from the very beginning and once I started I couldn't stop. The characters are so well developed and totally believable. Five women join a group for partners of sex addicts and the secrets they share are truly heartbreaking. Each one of them have never shared these shameful and painful truths with anyone. If you are worried that this novel is only about sex, it isn't. It's more about betrayal and the major life crisis that each of these women is going through.
Bridget, Hannah, Lizzy, Flavia, and Gail share a secret. From porn, chat rooms, young girls, to male prostitutes. How will they survive the shame and betrayal, accept, or begin to start over, to hopefully recover? Will they be able to forgive their partners and heal? Just like any other addiction, there are signs. Do they ignore them, deny them or face them head on? Should they stay or should they go? Each of the women in the group use different tactics with a wide range of heartfelt raw emotions. THE WEDNESDAY GROUP will have you emotionally invested in the five women and will have you flipping the pages long into the night.
How would you feel if you learned that your spouse was cheating on you? Not only that, but to know that they also can't stop. My heart was breaking for these women and the feelings they were dealing with. The feelings and situations not only effect them but also their families, jobs, and friends. THE WEDNESDAY GROUP will leave you wondering how you would deal with sex addiction if it was in your life. I can't imagine the shame and self doubt that would come into play.
Trust me when I say, THE WEDNESDAY GROUP is going to get under your skin and you aren't going to be able to put it down! I am so impressed with Sylvia True's writing that I can't wait to see what she writes next. I still can't believe THE WEDNESDAY GROUP is a debut novel. Will these five women survive all the lies and self doubt? You will find yourself cheering for them and the next minute, yelling at them! One of the best novels I've read this year and Sylvia True is going to be an author readers will seek out when looking for a riveting and well written story!
