I rarely read historical fiction books but every now and then my attention is captured by a beautiful cover and an interesting blurb. And that’s exactly what happened with The three lives of Alix St Pierre
This beautiful written book is about a woman who will risk her live in the espionage world, will become a successful fashion person and also will let go of her painful past and give a chance to real love.
It’s emotional, suspenseful in parts and entertaining all along.

I have words for this and NOT the kind ones. I don’t get the ending, yes it’s meant to be free to your imagination but still I needed closure. I found Leo so creepy, her husband was just a doormat and her lover … hm
Also , why the need for so many sex scenes? I mean, I get it but it’s OTT imo.

What a wild ride.A book that brings a lot of emotions while reading.
The characters are so skilfully designed that one second you hate them and the next you feel sorry for them and again you don’t know what to say or who to believe in the end.
They take turns in telling their part of the story and so many secrets and hidden thoughts surface just to change the curse of the story again.
It’s a lot to take in in my opinion. A story about loss, memories, grief , trauma and anxiety, so many on and off decisions made. Will they sell the house or not? Why is Louise keeping so much not to sell it and then all of the sudden she wants . And the cards are reversed again. I must admit that I found it annoying at that point because I just wanted them to make up their mind. But I also understand how much we get so attached to memories and things that others find unnecessary.
It’s a great story that many readers will enjoy.
