What I enjoyed about “The Wife’s Story” is how the author orchestrated the plot. I enjoyed how in the beginning the wife went to being so in love and in like with him, then he turns into a werewolf. I think that was an interesting but not expected put twist. You don’t think your husband is going to turn into a werewolf at any point of your time knowing him. I really enjoyed this story. The plot twist reminds me of a thriller movie, you never know what to expect. I don’t have any suggestions for the author. I enjoyed this short story. My one question is, what made you want the husband turn into a werewolf? Why not a vampire?

Office Hours: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11:30 AM – 12:30 PM. I’ll be available through Zoom and will send an invitation via email that you should keep all semester. Try to join my meeting at the start of the hour, not at the end—since I may be talking to other students or have another appointment after the hour is up. If those times don’t work with your schedule, we can schedule a different time. This means you’ll have to schedule an appointment in advance. I suggest you have multiple times in mind, since your schedule may not mesh with mine!
I agree with Nadrea on “The plot twist reminds me of a thriller movie…” because reading the story is like watching a real movie, the amount of details that came from the wife’s POV took us right into a movie theater in our head.
I also enjoyed how the author started the beginning. The events happened from much further back in the characters life then expected. The character started falling in love which made the scenes ten times worse when the story started to take an eerie turn. The suspense kept me guessing about what was going to happen next.
