I think I'm starting to love historical fiction, which is something I never thought I would say!

I did not know that Belle de Costa Greene was a real woman in history, and that made this all the more fascinating. I was captivated by her character in The Personal Librarian, and have started to do some outside research on her as well. This was a wonderful fictionalized biography.
