"The House of Stairs" . Barbara Vine

      The sixth book that I read was "The House of Stairs" by Barbara Vine. Publisher is Addison Wesley Longman Limited and Penguin Books Ltd. The book's reading level is four (intermediate). The book has 53 pages and 1700 words.
      This book is mostly about woman called Elizabeth. She's a writer. She meets a woman named Bell and they fell in love. She tells her a story from the book "The Wings of a Dove", where a woman is in love with a man, but they don't have any money. The girl suggests her lover to marry one ill and rich woman. When that woman dies, the two lovers get all of her money and merry. And that gives Bell a great idea...
      I wouldn't recommend this book very much to others to read, because it was quite shocking book. But if someone has interest, then he/she should definitely read it, because the story was interesting, though it was a bit difficult to read.
