LET’S GET EXCITED ABOUT THIS BOOK!

Think you know the person you married? Think again…

Things have been wrong with Mr. and Mrs. Wright for a long time. Adam has lived with face blindness his whole life. He can’t recognize friends or family, or even his own wife. And Amelia is sick of feeling unseen. When Adam and Amelia win a weekend away to Scotland, it might be just what their marriage needs. They both know this weekend will make or break their relationship, but they didn’t randomly win this trip. One of them is lying, and someone doesn’t want them to live happily ever after.

Ten years of marriage. Ten years of secrets. And an anniversary they will never forget.

LET’S TALK ABOUT THIS BOOK!

I don’t read psychological thrillers very often. It’s just not my genre of choice. It seemed like “Rock Paper Scissors” by Alice Feeney was everywhere last year, so I finally caved and gave it a shot. I’m so glad I did! This was an easy, take-your-mind-off-of-everything book. My sister recently brought this one on our family vacation and declared it to be the perfect “beach read!”

Obviously, with these psychological thriller type novels, the less said about them before you start the better. So let me just say this – READ THIS BOOK! And when you finish it, you’ll want to start right over and read it again – now that you know the “twist.” I sure did! (If you know – you know!)

Since I can’t really talk anymore about the book, “Rock Paper Scissors“…let me instead remind you of this funny Rock, Paper, Scissors clip from the TV show, Friends. It’s still one of my favorite television scenes ever. (Incidentally, my son DOES NOT find it funny when I pull out fire or water balloon when we play Rock, Paper, Scissors together!)

Also, since I can’t talk about Alice Feeney’s “Rock Paper Scissors” further… let me instead introduce you to an entertaining kids book on this subject. Drew Daywalt’s fun take on the Rock, Paper, Scissors game is guaranteed to keep the kiddos in your life laughing!

Now, enough said. Go cozy up in your old-lady gray sweater (you must have one in your closet somewhere) and read “Rock Paper Scissors” tonight!
