Her Fearful Symmetry- first novel in wintervacation


    Just finished it last night. Actually I only finished four out of fifth, and fliped through the ending. When I knew what the story gonna lead me, and the end, I ran off. Just like "Robert" in the story, couldn't stand "Elspeth" and the result, so we all escaped.

    It's a story about "twins", "Ghost", and I don't know what to say, the introduction claimed "love". However, I think it is not. I rather think it is humanity, that we all afraid of death. And that frightness are strong enough for us to get every chance to avoid death.

    Is it humanlity too, that  even when we were dead, we still hope to live? Moreover, would we willing to take over a person's life just to keep living on a life, even it is someone that so closed to us? I felt disgusted of what Elspeth has done. Even she claimed Valentina couldn't sustained and back to her own body, still there is no right for her to take over Valentina's body. It is just wrong.

     " 2 out of 5 stars "

A bit depressed, since this is the first book I finished for my vacation.
