BEAUTIFUL UGLY

Do you enjoy roller coaster rides with a side of beautiful writing? You've come to the right place. BEAUTIFUL UGLY follows Author Grady Green as he navigates the intense grief he is feeling from his wife's death. It's been a year and Grady's life has gone from bad to worse. He can’t sleep, and he can’t write, so he travels to a tiny Scottish island to try to get his life back on track. Then he sees the impossible – a woman who looks exactly like his missing wife, plus so many other strange occurrences that no one else sees. Is he losing his mind?Β 

Wives think their husbands will change but they don’t.
Husbands think their wives won’t change but they do.

I just loved this book. It blew my mind. On the island, nothing is what it seems to be. Odd and bizarre things happen on this island. There are so many crazy characters on the island too they all seem unlikable. Β 
This is told in past and present timelines from Grady and his wife, Abby's POV. The detail just added to the mystery of the surroundings. This is just another example of how crazy out there but incredibly good Alice Feeney's novels tend to be.Β
