HomeWrecked: When a Woman's Fed Up

Rate this book
Bitter. That was how I felt when I found out my husband of seven years had been lying to me. Not just lying, but out here creating life with another bitch half my age. Making whole damn kids while I was at home injecting hormones and crying into pregnancy tests that never turned pink. That shit didn’t just break me. It rewired me. I wouldn’t never be the same.
One crash out, a fucked-up apartment, a stab wound that wasn’t even mine, and a weekend in jail later, the change was solid. I came out a new woman. Not the soft kind, because that bitch died inside me somewhere. More like the kind that don’t take shit no more. Especially not from my soon-to-be ex-husband, Zamir.
At 38, I realized time was no longer something I could afford to waste on heartbreak disguised as love and potential. It was time to let go, stop playing shit safe and reclaim every piece of me that he tried to bury under all his lies and betrayal.
But sometimes you can move on too fast. Especially when you’re unhealed and still chasing a dream while watching your internal clock.
I wanted something new. I prayed to the Universe for it. I even cried over it. Then right on time, I met him.
And baby, the Universe must’ve had the darkest sense of humor because what I found wasn’t just new.
That shit felt dangerous, addictive, and unholy.
With a past even darker than mine...

Drama Filled

This story is told from multiple perspectives, providing readers with insight into the messy lives of various characters. I enjoyed the story. However, I discovered the book categorized under mystery, thriller, and suspense, because that’s what I was in the mood for, yet those elements weren’t present in the book. It reads like urban fiction; therefore, I recommend it to anyone who enjoys urban fiction with chaotic characters.

A slow burn this book is not. HomeWrecked is savage from the jump. Infidelity, murder, social media chaos, tricking, stripping, fighting, and so many secrets. I thought I was diving into a story about a marriage gone wrong with a little drama on the side, but babyyyy, it feels like every character has caught a body or got some serious skeletons in their closet. It’s told from multiple points of view, and let me say, Zamir’s childish ass works my nerves, his side piece Tanielle is a whole clown, Egypt was always deeper than he looked, Shamar too old for the games, and Danesha? UGH! Move better, baby. I need part 2 ASAP!

Ok concept

Warning: ⚠️ Do not read this unless you like shaky storytelling, surface level trauma for dramatic effect, and bad grammar. Read at your own risk

I needed a messy read for my book club and saw the title of this read and went why not? The concept in and of itself is definitely messy but the execution left me meh. The formatting of the book comes across as a wattpad structure than a novel meant for published paying consumers. The story unfolded with more attention to the plot points and drama than flushing out characters and writing strong scenes supported by fluid writing elements. There is also grammar errors that interrupted the syntax and flow of the story. We had serious situations like alcoholism, murder, and abductions shrugged out and arranged then rearranged for dramatic impact versus relying on good ole fashioned strong writing and story telling. I couldn't tell the FMC's characterization because it was a little all over the map. Egypt was presented as book bae but what we got was just surface level.

2.5 stars. A grown ass 38 year old woman arguing on FB with her husband’s younger mistress. It’s stupid. Dumb. Immature.

The plot twists were stupid, too

When a Woman's Fed Up

I found this book on FB. I was watching a TikTok done by another reader. Sis did not lie when she said read this book. Warning: a cliffhanger will meet you at the end of this exhilarating read. So let’s talk about the players we have. Denesha, married to Zamir for about 7 years, finds out her lowdown, dirty husband not only cheated but made a baby. And get this, the baby is 4 years old. So what are her options? I’ll take crash out on that ninja for 3000, Alex.

Next, we got Zamir, the lowdown husband. The man is every bit a gaslighter. I mean, the audacity he exuded was absolutely ridiculous. Like, how you think you’re going to convince your wife to raise your side child? Oh, and that little secret he has with Jabril, the BF of Denesha, ’cuz Shamar is diabolical.

OK, let’s talk about player number three Taneille, aka the hoe that is Zamir’s baby mom. There were some aspects where I could empathize with her character, ’cause clearly she’s been through a lot. But other times, I be like, little girl, go sit yourself down, the grown folks are talking.

Last but definitely not least, we have what I like to say is the “Upgrade”, Egypt aka Zane. He may come off calm, but baby, that calm is coming for you.

I really enjoyed getting the different POVs from each player. I called that cliffhanger drop midway into reading, however, reading it was still impactful. Can’t wait for part 2.

So like my good sis said on TikTok—READ THIS BOOK.

This book was entertaining, but I just KNOW there have to be other people living in this universe. Everybody is sleeping with everybody, related to everybody, secretly connected to everybody, and somehow NOBODY knows what anyone is doing until they accidentally run into each other every 15 pages. Pick a struggle.

Zamir...sir. You're a faithless husband, a serial cheater, childish, and drunk more often than you're sober. Every time he poured that dark liquor I started wondering if he was about to catch a body. I don't know if he was a serial killer, but the vibes were definitely "Law & Order: SVU guest star."

And Tanielle (Ivory)...baby. About 85% of this mess is YOUR fault. The way she was spiraling had me wanting to call somebody's insurance. Sis needed stronger medication, a weekend with padded walls, and somebody to take temporary custody of both her AND Za'Haad because at this point they BOTH needed adult supervision. Hire a nanny. Hire a therapist. Hire the FBI. SOMEBODY.

Poor Danesha. This was marketed as her story, yet somehow she spent the entire book trapped in everybody else's foolishness. I wanted so much more for her. She folded every single time it mattered. Ma'am...why are you arguing on the internet with your soon-to-be ex-husband's side piece?? Stand up.

Then we meet her mama, who's nobody to play with, and now I'm even more confused about why Danesha was written like she'd lose an argument with a paper bag.

Egypt might actually be the mayor of Messyville because HOW are you connected to literally everyone while supposedly keeping a low profile? Sir, pick one. I wanted more of his backstory because he was intriguing, but instead I got breadcrumbs, vibes, and innuendo. Then the book reveals he's Zamir's long-lost father...

*deep sigh.*

I physically rolled my eyes. I don't even know why that reveal irritated me as much as it did, but I was officially tired. It was giving Tyler Perry...minus the terrible wigs and random church scene where everybody starts crying.

And can we PLEASE discuss Jabril trying to trade Danesha to settle his debt?? EXCUSE ME?? Sir, that's not how debt consolidation works.

This is technically an age-gap romance, but thankfully the book didn't spend 300 pages reminding us. It was just there, minding its business, which I appreciated.

The multiple POVs made the story feel a little chaotic because everybody had a crisis, everybody had a secret, everybody had a revelation, and somehow they all belonged in the same group chat. But despite all my complaints, I was thoroughly entertained. I'm invested enough to pick up book two because surely all this chaos has to come together eventually...right?

...Right??

Why do I gotta feeling Danesha isn't going to end up with Egypt? I mean, do we even wanna end up with him knowing he's the father of her estranged husband? Uuh, YUCK! Egypt is not book bae, though. it's something about him that was never sitting right with me since he walked onto the scene. His mysterious persona screamed red flag to me, but Danesha was in so much distress that she didn't notice. and ended up"falling in love " with the man. Where they do that at? Anyways, can't wait until part 2.

This book made me want to scroll through this author's entire catalog. HOMEWRECKED, had me on a rollercoaster of emotion. There was a particular chapter that had my mind spiraling from all the action, fear, chaos... And then it came with the Bonnie and Clyde ride. I was thinking, “What?!” I’d never had a story evoke these many emotions out of me within one chapter. It was like a literary climax! This entire book had my undivided attention. Every single chapter was engaging, messy, heart-pounding, eye-popping or brow-furrowing. Excellent! I’m ready for PART 2!

This book was very juicy and kept me hanging on for more. Homewrecked takes on multiple meanings in this book. I think it could be a new urban cult classic. I can’t wait for part 2.

The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because of a technicality - the book could have been edited better. There were some errors where you can tell it was edited, but the part that was being corrected was still present. I hope the next book flows better.
