Beauty and The bitch is an Indonesian chick lit written by Christina Tirta. This book has a complex story in it. It seems that all the character in the book by someway or another has a complex connected life to each other.
The two main character are Nadine, a girl who has classical beauty but so naive and old-fashioned. And the other one is Isabelle, beautiful and exotic girl but too aggressive and has a big enthusiasm. Both of them were best friends since elementary school but have to separate because Isabelle moved to
Nadine now is a wife of successful entrepreneur, she now life wealthy, but she feels lonely and can't feel happy although she living in her dream as a child. Nadine constantly feeling insecure in her married live, she afraid that her husband will be cheating on her.
Isabelle still very beautiful and sophisticated, she has a boutique of her own just as she dream as a child. But her world has falling down since her mom died and her father got in jail because his friend betray him, and the most hurting part in Isabelle life, she saw her mother live and died miserably because her father has an affair with other woman and has a child in her age from the other woman. Isabelle has a child but she is not married because she doesn't believe in married.
Unexpectedly their meeting changes their fate forever. Secrets that have been kept for years reveal in front of their eyes. Their relationship will not be the same after the secret reveals. As I said before it seems that somehow the connection between Isabelle and Nadine bring so many complex connections to the people around their life. Then in the final part, all the connection will bring to a great secret revealing.
Interesting to read, but frankly the story end can be predictable before the final chapter. But still if you have time and enjoy reading chick lit story as I do, you should read "beauty and the bitch" and put it in your collection.
