Review: Glittering, brilliant - A labyrinth of yearning, primed with passion and unrequited love; evoked not only for the finely draw characters, but for the author herself! Yes, this was quite the best book I've ever read. How is it possible for an author to write a character so well drawn that the reader, instantly, falls head over heels in love? I'll leave it to you to work out which protagonist I mean. From the start: April, surging into the apartment, filled with the relics and flavors of the past, to the unremittingly exquisite revelation of "Mart", towards the gritty awkwardness of personal relationships, until the revelation that, perhaps, there is more to perfection than the incarnation of its ideal...a thought to savor in the darkest hour, but not one to allow you to cave on humanitarian responsibility...this book never lets you down. A story beautifully told, with all the smarts of a modern fairytale, and all the facts to realize why we hold fairytales so dear. Please don't miss this novel, even if it's the only one you read this year.
Review: Highly enjoyable read! - I really enjoyed reading this book. Being an avid antiques lover certainly added to my enjoyment and the story is truly fascinating -- very unusual, a little hard to believe, but quite the story. I can't imagine opening an apartment door to all those treasures! I liked the character development, though I wished for more for some of the characters. I feel like it all came together a little too quickly in the end. And I didn't like the way it ended. The ending did not go with the story to me. It just suddenly ended and I feel like many things were left hanging and not pulled together. Maybe it was on purpose and there is a sequel in the works. If that is the case, I will give it 5 stars!

I really enjoyed reading this book. Being an avid antiques lover certainly added to my enjoyment and the story is truly fascinating -- very unusual, a little hard to believe, but quite the story.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Facinating Story
*by B***N on January 18, 2016*

Synopsis April Vogt, a Sotheby’s Furniture specialist is struggling to cope with her husband’s confession about his onetime infidelity and is trying to figure out how it will affect their marriage. When her boss sends her to Paris to catalogue an apartment that has been locked up for seventy years and is full of antiques, she does not care about the dust and cobwebs she finds. Instead she sees it as an opportunity to escape, to get away from her life in New York. Once in France she discovers there is more to the apartment than treasures and valuable antiques. She gets intrigued by the Boldini painting of Marthe de Florian, the latter being the original owner of the apartment. When Marthe de Florian’s diaries are found April finds herself fascinated with this enigmatic woman and has a sudden urge to discover her story. As April digs deeper into Marthe’s life, she is compelled to take a closer look at issues in her own. Review The plot is made up out of two timelines. One is set in the past which tells the story of Marthe de Florian through April’s reading of the diaries. The other set in the present and follows April’s life.The plot telling the colourful story of Marthe is the strong part of the book and is fascinating. The characters are interesting and well described. You can understand what motivates them and they show real emotions such as anger, despair, love, vulnerability and jealousy. The part of the story telling April’s life is not as captivating. In fact it was hard to understand what really motivated her. You see that April is fascinated by Marthe’s apartment and her diaries but you don’t really feel it; at least not in the beginning. As the story develops the characters grow and start to become more complex and you realise they are more damaged by events in their past than at first thought. Towards the end it’s easier to relate to the characters, April in particular. They become a little less arrogant and self interested than they were in the beginning. The book has a strong ending. The two storylines are nicely concluded together. Overall this is an interesting read. Anybody looking for a good historical fiction, with strong characters and a bit of intrigue or a one nicely set in Paris, will enjoy this book. I give it 3.8 stars.
