Julia was married with a so-called
perfect life, but she often felt bored and restless. Perhaps she
could take ballroom dance lessons, which was really an excuse to get
out of “a deep hold of depression brought on by the knowledge she
could not get pregnant.”
Julia just seemed to think that
everyone’s life was better than hers. Ordinarily she wouldn’t
mind that her husband’s work often took him away on business trips
(that was just the way it was) until doubt settles in and she begins
to wonder what he actually does when he’s away. That compiled with
the odd behavior she’s been noticing lately. At it would seem that
someone’s been watching her.
Story had an easy narrative. The whole
thing is written in a diary format as Julia relays Derek’s odd and
distant tendencies. She spends most of her time trying to figure
what’s wrong with him. I thought this was interesting, but it
seemed slow and uneventful.
An okay read.
My rating: 3 stars
