A review by shirleytupperfreeman
Invitation to a Bonfire by Adrienne Celt

Things aren’t always what they seem. This clever novel purports to be a collection of diary entries, letters and newspaper accounts released to a private school in 1984 about a tragedy and murder in 1931. Author Celt messes with the reader’s mind as much as characters Zoya, Lev and Vera mess with each other’s minds. As a youngster, Zoya observed that her father’s mantra of choosing to be good over being happy didn’t work out so well so perhaps she will make a different choice? To be published in June 2018.
