“Alex drained her wineglass, then her water glass. The ocean looked calm, a black darker than the sky. A ripple of anxiety made her palms go damp. It seemed suddenly very tenuous to believe that anything would stay hidden, that she could successfully pass from one world to another.” |
| The Guest | If you couldn’t get enough of Inventing Anna, don’t miss The Guest– a novel about a woman who stays past her welcome and wiles her way into the social circles she craves, by any means necessary. The Guardian calls it “sultry and engrossing, with a note of menace, a gorgeously smart affair whose deceptive lightness conceals strange depths and an arresting originality.” | Add to reading list |
