Prologue: Alicia Berenson's Diary - July 14th
Here we learn about Alicia's love for her husband, Gabriel. She talks about enjoying watching him cook, how he is "elegant, balletic, organized". So opposite of Alicia herself. She also shares how she is struggling, how she feels that she is wading through mud, how Gabriel gave her this journal to help her get her feelings out. And how she plans to use it as a place to write "positive, happy, normal thoughts."
And then the first chapter begins with, "Alicia Berenson was thirty-three years old when she killed her husband."
Boom - and we are off into this psychological thriller.
This book is so very much about human nature with some therapy tossed in, a whole lot of mystery, and plot twists and turns that will surprise you. Pick this book up if the inner workings of the human mind interests you.
I accessed this book through my SORA account which is linked to Nashua Public Library.
