The Butterfly Trap - Clea Simon

 The Butterfly Trap - Clea Simon

Pub. Date:  March 4, 2025

She read

Anya is a struggling artist; Greg a doctor working in research. When they meet, he falls hard for what he sees as her butterfly like beauty. He leaves his job to become a surgical resident so that he can support Anya and her pursuit of artistic success. Despite his friend Pete’s attempt to poison Greg’s view of Anya, they marry. But like many relationships, there are secrets and their relationship slowly dissolves. The first half of the book is from Greg’s POV, the second from Anya’s. 

This was well written and the he said she said POVs an interesting approach. Wouldn’t we all like to know what our partner is really thinking, doing? However, I found all the characters truly unlikable. Despite that, it was an engrossing read although I found the ending and denouement a bit rushed. 

Thanks to #NetGalley and @severnhouseimprint for the DRC.
