I won't lie, I downloaded this book nearly ten years ago and I just managed to read it. It wasn't the best book I have read.

Adultery is about 30-something Linda who has hit a state of ennui with her life. She has realised that this really is it and she is lost because the mundanity of the every day has set in. She then sets off on a self-destructive path looking for a dopamine kick.

Overall I thought it was a story that has been done before. Linda was unlikable and so I didn't find any sympathy for her whatsoever.

I just wasn't a fan.

Adultery by Paulo Coelho is available now.
