Accidents of Marriage

Book #59 Read in 2014
Accidents of Marriage by Randy Susan Meyers

I enjoyed the author's book The Comfort of Lies and the book was just as good.  In this novel, Maddy and Ben have a marriage that is struggling due to Ben's anger issues.  Those reach a high point when his angry driving plays a role in causing a car accident, which leaves Maddy in a coma with a traumatic brain injury.  Maddy eventually comes out of the coma but her road to recovery--of her words and emotions, of her marriage, of her life--is one that is not easy.

I enjoyed Meyer's writing.  She told this story in alternating viewpoints of Maddy, Ben and their oldest daughter Emma.  This fleshed out these three important characters more to readers and made them even more engaging.  Meyer is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors.

I received a copy of this book from BookBrowse, in exchange for a honest review.
