This book is great! The plot is particularly attractive, and Sidney Sheldon is a master storyteller! I especially liked the story about the actress. I admired her tenacity. However, that millionaire David Kenevan is really annoying, irresponsible and selfish. Overall, this book is worth reading and I recommend it to you!
"Stranger in the Mirror" is a book worth reading! ! ! The fate of the two protagonists Toby and Jill in the novel is lamentable. Toby cherished his passion for acting and never gave up pursuing his dreams even in the face of many setbacks, such as the death of his mother and interruption of his acting career to serve in the military. His persistence is admirable, but after becoming famous, he gradually lost himself in fame and fortune. Jill is also a person who works tirelessly for her dreams. She struggled from the bottom and is eager to get rid of the ordinary life. But in the complex dyeing vat of Hollywood, she did not hesitate to pay a huge price to realize her dream, and even lost her original intention and made some regrettable choices. Their stories show the fragility and tenacity of human nature in the face of cruel social reality and the temptation of fame and fortune. In the novel, class concepts are serious and it is difficult for people at the bottom to realize their dreams. Both Toby and Jill have gifts and talents, but they have experienced hardships on the road to fame. This is not only a personal problem, but also reflects the injustice and darkness of society. Hollywood is glamorous on the surface, but in fact it is full of hidden rules and interest disputes. People do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Innocence and kindness are often difficult to survive in such an environment. This makes people deeply feel the impact of social environment on people, as well as the helplessness and difficulties people may face on the road to pursuing their dreams. There are no absolute good guys or bad guys in the book, everyone has their own helplessness and struggles. In the process of pursuing his dream, Toby hurt some people in order to succeed; Jill also committed some immoral behaviors in order to realize her ambition. But they were not born this way, but gradually changed under the pressure and temptation of life. This allows us to see the complexity of human nature. When faced with huge interests and difficulties, people may make choices that go against their true intentions. At the same time, it also allows readers to reflect on how they would make decisions in similar situations, thereby gaining a deeper understanding of human nature. The story uses two parallel main lines to tell the growth process of Toby and Jill respectively, allowing readers to clearly see the fate of the two people, and at the appropriate time, their fates are intertwined, creating a strong dramatic conflict. The plot of the novel is ups and downs, full of suspense and reversals. From the various bizarre events at the beginning, to the struggles and frustrations of the protagonists in the middle, to the final tragic ending, it always captures the reader's attention.
