The Woman on the Ledge: A Novel by Ruth Mancini
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
WHAT A RIDE!
I loved this book so so much!
Unreliable narrators are always my favourites and honestly this narrator got on my nerves. It’s clear she has something to hide but what? Why is she hiding? What is she hiding? Is she guilty or not? I could not read fast enough. I hated that her story kept changing and I did not trust him but I have never connected to a character like this.
At several times while reading, I screamed out loud in frustation.
“The Woman on the Ledge” tells the story of Tate, a temp employee who may or may not have pushed someone off a ledge. Tate claims the lady was suicidal. Tate claims she didn’t know her. Tate claims to have been inside the building. Tate claims to have been nowhere near the building. Whatever the truth is, it’s clear that Tate has some part in this whole thing and something to hide.
This book came together piece by piece and I loved it! I devoured this book in one sitting and no matter how much I didn’t trust Tate, I was still sad when this book ended.
