Book Review

(by- Linda )

"Pretty Things" is an intricately woven thriller that keeps you guessing until the end. Blending elements of psychological fiction with a captivating plot, this is a story of deception, obsession, and the blurred lines between appearance and reality.

The story revolves around two complex and flawed female protagonists: Nina Ross and Vanessa Liebling. Nina, a skilled con artist, is determined to pull off the ultimate heist and secure a better future for herself and her ailing mother. Vanessa, a privileged social media influencer grappling with her insecurities and family issues, becomes the target of Nina's elaborate scheme.

The strength of this book lies in the compelling and multi-dimensional characters. Nina and Vanessa are flawed in their own unique ways, and the author delves deep into their backgrounds, motivations, and vulnerabilities, adding complexity to the story.
