So fascinating!

I loved learning about an artist I hadn’t heard of before! I also loved the idea of Ellie’s museum.

Narrator and Book Review

The narration of the book was phenomenal and it was a great book as well. Loved the story!

Paris art scene

The narration could have used more speakers. The characters were hard to desern form each other, especially towards the end.

Some Paintings Should be Seen

Enjoyed the novel and both story lines. The reader, however, reminded me Prank Call voices.

History and current day story

I love reading about little known women in history. I don’t know much about art and this book inspired me to look up Suzanne’s work.
