This book.
I have to start by saying I love the way the writer writes, and for being a first novel, it was really good and really worth it. This novels talks about the life of a dying author, Vida Winter, told by a biographer, Margaret Lea, who has her own story as well. Vida Winter lied about her life every time she was asked about it, but as a last decision, she wrote to Margaret to be the author of her biography. Secrets are told and the sad life of Vida Winter and who she really was is discovered. The book centers of that, while also telling the feelings and reactions the story causes on Margaret. We also meet new people, like Aurelius, who will bring more to this story as we slowly get to the end, where the truth is revealed with a wonderful spin off.
This book is charming, one of those you just can't stop reading. Recommended to everyone who likes a nice story, with a little mystery and secrets all over the place.
