A Fine Imitation by Amber Brock
4.0
When done right I have an enjoyable time reading books from this time period. In the case of this book, it was done right. I instantly felt like I was transported back in time. I could see the clothes, imagine the conversation, and it was like I was in Vera's shoes and was experiencing everything as she was for the first time.
It was easy to see how she fell for Emil. Her life while full of money and glam was not a happy one from the inside. Her marriage to her husband was non existent. Then there is Vera's mother, who is a controlling Nazi. Whenever Vera was with Emil, it was like watching a butterfly emerge from their cocoon. Because I was so immersed in this book, it was a quick read. The ending was a great one.
