Pretending to Be Erica - Michelle Painchaud Seventeen-year-old Violet’s entire life has revolved around one thing: becoming Erica Silverman, an heiress kidnapped at age five and never seen again.
Violet’s father, the best con man in Las Vegas, has a plan, chilling in its very specific precision. Violet shares a blood type with Erica; soon, thanks to surgery and blackmail, she has the same face, body, and DNA. She knows every detail of the Silvermans’ lives, as well as the PTSD she will have to fake around them. And then, when the time is right, she “reappears”—Erica Silverman, brought home by some kind of miracle.
But she is also Violet, and she has a job: Stay long enough to steal the Silverman Painting, an Old Master legendary in the Vegas crime world. Walking a razor’s edge, calculating every decision, not sure sometimes who she is or what she is doing it for, Violet is an unforgettable heroine, and Pretending to be Erica is a killer debut.

Mina tankar
Det känns lite som om bokvärlden håller andan inför höstens utgivning nu. Själv har jag redan en lååång lista på böcker som kommer ut i höst och som jag vill hinna läsa, men det är fortfarande ett litet tag kvar till dess. Den här veckan fångade Pretending to be Erica mitt intresse. Sägs vara lite i stil med We Were Liars och den tyckte jag ju väldigt mycket om.
