[Ntombifuthi Londi]

What a shock! The plot appears to be rather intriguing. This is a book that I will undoubtedly read. Wives scheming against their husbands may sound nasty, but I'm captivated. Congratulations on winning #BOTD!

Murders based on true stories! Sounds interesting and thrilling. Thank you for the great review

[Kemmy11]

This is an interesting book i’ll love to read. Excessive love for money can make people do bad things to the point of plotting murder. I’ll add this book to my reading list. Thank you for the review

"The Wicked Wives" by Gus Pelagatti. A very interesting historical fiction story that talks about the wicked wives that killed their husband. Not only that, but having an affair with Giorgio the tailor. The mother inlaw, being wise suspected it could be a murder case and not Pneumonia. Congrats on BOTD.

The way the author was inspired to write up a fiction based on discussions he eavesdropped on is overwhelming. Review sounds amazing and definitely a book I would like to get into!

[Celiamunze]

Thank you for the fantastic review! The title of this book alone already draws the reader to the happenings in the book, it's all about husband's awful and dreadful encounter with their wives. I am thinking this book will attract more men because they will be curious to know what the wicked wives did.

Philadelphia housewives each scheme with a local tailor, Giorgio DiSipio, to assassinate their spouses for the insurance money. One of the housewives' mother-in-law even suspects foul play. Will their secrets be revealed? Congratulations on BOTD!

I enjoy true crime stories and this book has really piqued my interest. The blurb of the book made me curious, but your review really pushed me into wanting to read this book. I like the variety of "characters" the author gives so this sounds like this book will be an engaging read. Thank you!

[Temilolu2]

I don't know which baffled me the most
To think wives murdered their husbands for their debts or that it's a true-life story.
This book would be a good read

[Stephanie Elizabeth]

This review totally reeled me in. It sounds like an interesting piece of history to read about. Philandering wives and murders for insurance money sound like a real page-turner. Thanks for the detailed review.

[Adaeze Joan]

I agree with you, the author could have done better with the book's title. However, this would be an exciting book to read, though am not a fan of fiction novels. Thanks for the review.

Everything that is based on true stories is, in my opinion, very interesting. This book seems exciting and intriguing. THe author managed to weave so many characters into one smooth plot describing the murders of husbands and sharing the women's stories, probably trying to explain why they did such a thing. It will be interesting to read the story. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

[Anne Ngendo]

Intriguing, captivating and down right wicked. To think that the book is based on true stories is chilling to say the least. The author brings out the witty, craftiness, and desperation in the lives of these women that leads them to act so wickedly towards their husbands. A chilling thriller but quite an interesting read.

Murdering your husband because of insurance money is really heartbroken because any woman that loves money than her home is so dangerous and can do anything to achieve it.. I love the story anyways cos the author did a great work…

[Abi McCoy]

It sounds like the author did a good job at combining the stories of multiple protagonists in a way that was smooth and entertaining. These murders based on true events should make for a thrilling read. Thank you for your review!
