My thoughts in a nutshellI usually don t read short stories but TJR is my newest favorite author and I was really curious if she could write a great story on only 115 pages Yes she could No matter whether it is 100 pages or 400 she s just a marvelous writer and she can do anything I adored this little novel This is not a spoiler but it s about an affair The two involved characters start a conversation by letters and they found out that their partners sleep together The whole story takes place in the 70s It is funny the crazy things our brains make up to save us from the truth I enjoyed the discussion between the main characters We could see into the lovers relationship and also the cheated person s lifeCompared to only 115 pages on Kindle it is a well written love story The atmosphere was bittersweet I believe that if someone cheated on hisher loved one their relationship ends It would not work in the future I guess I find it pretty easy to look like nothing is happening when everything has changed I didn t expect the ending The twist was so good It lifted my enjoyment I absolutely love Taylor s works I recommend Evidence of the Affair to everyone It is a perfect short uick read if you don t have time to something long I gave it 45 stars because of the twist
