After She Wrote Him by Sulari Gentill

4.0

~This ARC has been gently provided in exchange for an honest review~

I chose to read this book, because the premise seemed quite interesting and original, and it didn’t disappoint me.
I’m sure that we all feel like we are able to know, see, and listen so clearly the characters in the book we are reading that it seems like they were real. If we can be so involved in the story we are reading, imagine then, what a writer must feel about their characters. That’s exactly what is depicted in this book.

Edward McGinnity is a “serious writer”, as Madeleine points out, he writes“the kind of worthy, incomprehensible stuff that wins awards”. One day, the inspiration comes to him and Madeleine d’Leon is born. The first thing he knows about her is that she is a writer too, a mystery/crime writer.

Madeleine d’Leon is in a meeting when Edward starts taking shape in her mind. There’s been a murder and he is the main suspect. In order to defend himself, he starts investigating who the murderer is.

Who has created whom? Who is the real author and who is the character? After she wrote him is a page-turner story with an original plot.
