The Girl From Colombia by Julián Rodríguez
3.75
This book starts with an 8 year old girl attempting to murder her adoptive father. But why she feels that way is still a secret, keeping you hooked and eager to find out more. This first chapter itself made me finish the book in one sitting. ( it has less than 200 pages )
The narrative traces Isabel's journey from Colombia to New York in the 1880s, where she is taken by a wealthy foreigner. As the main story unfolds, we see Isabel as an adult living a solitary existence. However, things take a dramatic turn when the real son of her ruthless adoptive father falls in love with her, despite being engaged to her best friend.
The entire story was twisted yet filled with mystery, angst, and forbidden love. It moved at a brisk pace and had dual timeline narration.
