The Ever After

 I read The Ever After which is a family drama novel written by Sarah Pekkanen. Josie and Frank have been married for 16 years. They have two young girls and naturally life is busy in the suburbs of Chicago. One morning Josie asks to borrow Frank's phone while he stops to get coffee. As she uses his phone to call a pharmacy, she sees an email pop up that indicates frank is having an affair. Josie is furious. Frank is remorseful. The book explores the marital crisis and the fall out when her trust in him is broken. I thought Josie's character was authentic and real. This novel almost read like a self-help book on how to deal with infidelity.
