This is a captivating re-imagining of the story of Lucrezia de Medici's life. It is beautifully written and the emotions surrounding the horrifying reality of Lucrezia's marriage are vividly palpable. A brilliant read

maggie o’farrell you slayed

This was a very somber, atmospheric novel. It moved along ploddingly slow, but I can’t decide whether that made me like the book less, or if it added to the moodiness….Undecided on my opinion of this one.

History rocks!!!!! Men are stupid!!!

Good history lesson. I liked how the author built the characters we may not know so much about.

Well read.
