Printable Book Club Questions for My Husband’s Wife by Alice Feeney

When Eden returns to her home, and her key doesn’t work, and her husband, Harrison, claims she’s a stranger, what were your thoughts as you read it unfold?
What did you think was really happening with Eden?
We follow several character POVs, including Eden, Harrison, Birdy, and more. Why was it important for the reader to read each of their POVs? How did it help build tension, but also provide misdirection?
Was there any point you suspected Birdy wasn’t being fully forthcoming about her motivations and intentions?
Eventually, Eden is pushed off a cliff to her death. Who did you suspect pushed her at first? Did that change as the story went on?
What do you think of the dynamic between Birdy and Carter?
Harrison is the head of a company that can predict someone’s death. Why did Harrison go all in with this company?
Why did Birdy decide to find out her supposed death day? Would you have tried to as well? Why or why not?
Birdy believes she doesn’t have much time left, but we eventually learn that the company can get the dates wrong. Would Birdy have reacted differently if she thought she had more time left, or did learning her death day cause her to act out of character?
Why did Harrison and Birdy decide to get rid of Eden?
We have lots of twists in this one. Let’s first discuss the twist of Mary. Why did Mary get so close with the family and agree to go along with Birdy and Harrison’s plans?
Birdy believes that she was the one who hurt Gabriella. But Gabriella says it was actually Eden who pushed her down the stairs and then tried to frame Birdy. Do you believe Gabriella, or did you have more questions about that fateful day?
Eventually, Harrison runs away with Mary and Gabriella to another country. And it turns out Birdy’s death day was inaccurate, and she is healthy and living back in Hope Falls, with Gabriella visiting her. Let’s talk about the ending for all of them. Did it make sense to you? Or did you still have questions?
And the final twist is that Jane, Carter’s wife, is the one who pushed Eden, as she believed Eden kissed Carter (but we know it was actually Mary). What were your thoughts on this reveal? Will she go after Birdy next?
Which twist was the most surprising to you?
