At moments absolutely heartbreaking. Cried a lot towards the end. Loved the way Lucrezia’s point of view is written. The way she sees the world is beautiful.

Interesting portrayal of Lucrezia de Medici with an interesting twist.

This was such a wonderful book! I enjoyed the characters, the plot and the way the author wove the story in with known history. The twist at the end was one I didn’t see coming and I always enjoy that in a book!

3.5. I liked the concept. Too many descriptions of scenery for me. Also not sure how believable some of the characters were to me.
