A book, a glass of Chardonnay, popcorn. Delightful end to a crazy work week.
#CharacterCharm #Spy I think I‘m kind of a #seriesfail I thought when I saw this on my nightstand of shame, when did I read the Silva before this one ? January of 2023! 😱😕😄Sophie photo bomb #catsofLitsy
bailedWell written and researched, this spy thriller moves from Rome to Jerusalem to Paris & beyond. I quite liked Gabriel Allon although he seems a little too perfect (but maybe that‘s the point). I liked the intricate details of art & the spy world. But at times it felt bogged down in descriptions of process that I didn‘t need. Precise & comprehensive, it‘s richer than many spy thrillers. Kind of like an art history textbook in fictional form.
Gotta get through this one so I can prep for book club next week. It's okay, but not amazing, and I really would rather be reading my other book, which IS amazing. So I'm rewarding myself with chocolate for doing the reading i should be doing instead of the reading i want to be doing. Toblerone season is here!
