The Chalk Artist by Allegra Goodman

3.0

I just don't know about this one. At times I was compelled to keep reading and not put it down. At times, I was so frustrated I thought about not finishing it. There is really potential for a series in this book based on each of the characters. There is so much going on and so many threads it was both intriguing and maddening. At any point in reading this I could have given it two stars and then fifty pages later given it five. I guess it was a good book in that it has me perplexed and still thinking about it. Truly unlike anything else I have read. It is labeled a Romance. Yes, but it could also be fantasy, general fiction, and slightly mystery. Strange.
