She ends up having struggles with herself, because she’s never had a family, and this conflicts with the identity she is stealing. She pretends to be part of a family that she has never known. The main character, Tessa, later pretending to be Madison, is always really nervous to be taking the place of a dead girl. The details put into what the character was feeling when she was drowning made the book interesting right away.ĭescription in this book creates a feeling of nervousness. Everyone running around, screaming for someone to help, and the person drowning was the start of all the action. With someone drowning and having a lot of chaos happen at one time is the first attention grabbing technique used. In Impostor the author is great at starting out with something really catchy. If you are looking forward to reading a book full of action and vividly painted pictures, I recommend Impostor by Susanne Winnacker. The way the book is written makes you want to keep reading and never put the book down. This is the book that will let you go into the life of the characters. Impostor is full of description and detail.

Charlie!” while men in orange slickers hose down toilets in the yard. Charlie himself arrives at work only around midday in a black Cadillac Escalade. The company boasts more than $35 million in annual revenue, thanks in part to “salesgirls” who head out each day in the company’s signature Volkswagen Beetles to poach contracts from competitors who are too shy to sell with sex.
