It was a good book. It was very entertaining.

It is an amazing book and leaves you in a cliffhanger, you have to read the 2nd book to see if a person DIES or not!!

4.5– a delightful tale as usual from Sloan. great for book lovers. didn’t like the man of it all as much but it was pretty self aware.

Her famous painting has thorns around her neck. She died young and her house now has all her pictures for people to see, and she painted when she had a pain in her back.

I really liked this book because it was about Pompeii and I had fun learning about the volcano.

I liked it.

It's a great lazy day summer read...perfect for hot, slow days.

Fascinating book about art, forgery, and painting. The narrator has morals and portrays the ethical questions sympathetically.
