📚 Wowowow, THE ECHO WIFE is horrifying and glorious and thorny and beautiful and gross and multilayered.
📚 I love that Gailey writes prickly, even mean women as protagonists, and never apologizes for them.
📚 The book manages to be both action-packed and meditative.
📚 There is so much more going on in this book than your typical domestic thriller. Everything from who counts as people to the right to control your body to should you be held accountable for something your clone did. I think this is Gailey's best book yet.
📚 Some readers are going to reject the ending, but it really worked for me - come talk to me about it once you've read it!
