I picked this up at Costco because I liked the cover. I had a hard time getting into the book at first, but once I got about 50 pages in, I had a hard time putting it down. The level of historical detail regarding the impressionists and the ballet was fascinating. The characters (once we got rid of mother!) were compelling. By the time I was mid-way through, I found myself making time on a car trip (yes, I pulled over at a rest stop) to jump back into the book. Loved it. Will watch for future offerings by this author!
