The Perfect Marriage

1. General Impressions 

Gather initial thoughts and broad opinions about the book.

• Were you surprised by the revelation in the final chapters that Sarah killed Kelly/Jenna and framed Adam for the murder? What clues were there that Sarah knew about the affair before the murder?
• How does the novel compare to other Jeneva Rose novels you have read, such as One of Us Is Dead? Was this mystery more or less surprising? If this was your first time reading Rose, what other books or writers would you compare this novel to?

2. Personal Reflection and Connection

Encourage readers to connect the book’s themes and characters with their personal experiences.

• Did you find Sarah or Adam to be a more compelling and sympathetic narrator? Why? 
• How did you feel about Bob and Sarah getting married and having a child? What do you think caused them to form a romantic relationship?
• Do you believe that Kelly/Jenna was abused by both her husbands? Why or why not? How does the book change if she is lying? Assuming she is lying, how do you feel about the way the book handles the subject of domestic violence?
• Both Sarah and Bob are willing to kill for vengeance. Can you relate to their feelings of anger? Is seeking vengeance ever justified? Why or why not?
• Would you defend your partner if they were accused of committing a terrible crime? To what extent does loyalty matter in such situations?
