Losing the Light [Idioma Inglés] - Softcover

"There are so many coming-of-age novels in the world about the young, innocent girl making her way in the world. And yet, "Losing the Light" is really something special. Andrea Dunlop has a keen sense of what a modern woman on the cusp of her twenties might truly desire, fear, and be tempted by. Her characters are unapologetic and troublesome, yet intensely likable. On top of that, she sets the book in a French town and feeds you wine and men the whole way through. Oh, and there s a murder mystery. Seduced yet? You should be. This is a lovely debut." --Katie Crouch "New York Times bestselling author of Girls in Trucks and Abroad ""
