His Other Wife, Book 1

a novel

De: Umm Zakiyyah

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

This three-book edition of His Other Wife—Umm Zakiyyah’s popular online series turned novel—is a story about love and betrayal, faith and personal crisis, and withstanding deep emotional wounds.

Jacob is a successful businessman and college professor, and his wife Deanna is a renowned marriage counselor and author. Together they are their Muslim community’s power couple. Aliyah is Deanna’s recently divorced best friend who has just accepted a position at the college where Jacob works—and who is the unwilling recipient of Deanna’s constant unsolicited relationship advice, particularly that Aliyah needs to learn how to hold a marriage together and keep a man from ever thinking about marrying another woman. But their friendship takes a difficult turn when Aliyah receives a phone call from her uncle saying that Jacob is interested in marrying her as a second wife—without Deanna’s knowledge.

Boring. Sorry its not exciting at all.

I really wanted to love this book, as a fellow muslim, wanting to support my muslim sister. However, the story was dry. I zoned out several times. If that happens, I usually rewind so I dont miss anything but I didnt find that necessary here.

The virtual voice is not the best option. It doesnt know how to pronpunce certain words and thats annoying.
