A FINE IMITATION BY AMBER BROCK is set in alternating years of 1913 at Vassar and 1923 in New York & follows Vera a girl/& woman of beauty & pedigree. Student of art at Vassar just filling in her time until marriage to a wealthy man , in 1923 married & living at the Angelus a very coveted address on Park Ave. Vera at Vassar is just going thru the motions of college. She knows what her life of the future holds. Vera in Park Ave is also just going thru the motions, her husband is all work & no time for Vera. Then one day Vera meets Emil, an artist paid to live at the Angelus and create a mural in their swimming pool area.
Page after page I turned. Chapter after chapter as the story gets deeper you keep wanting to know what the secret of Vassar is and what Vera will do once she realizes she's in love with another man. I could not put it down until I finished. And at the end I even agreed with Vera about what she did & why she did it.
I recieved this book free from Librarything in exchange for an honest review
