The Secret History by Donna Tartt


The book is separated in two parts and it felt like two different books and two different authors. I really loved the first half and didn’t like the second part at all. Our book club discussion thought maybe the author wanted it this way to show the difference between fantasy and reality.

The story is set in a private college in Vermont where an inner circle of five students are selected to study the mysteries of ancient Greek culture. Well of course somewhere along the line, reality and fantasy collide and the group commits a crime.
