Reviews with the most likes.
Great example of well-written historical fiction. Characters and story engaging from the beginning and finished the book with a driving desire to know more about Vermeer and his art.
The characters' emotions are authentic. I like this book because of the true friendship between a woman and a man, where is no romantic love between them
This book is not good. I only finished it because it was recommended and lent to me by my friend's mom and I wanted to give it back to her.
I loved this book.
A simple story, yet very rich.
The characters seemed real.
