review 1: Nightingale was the first book by Juliette Waldron that I read, and I'm glad I did, because she brings her characters to life so well.In Nightingale we caught a glimpse of Mozart, now we have a full book! This one feature's his wife and is told from her point of view. I absolutely devoured this book. Konstanze is quite a character and this book really made me want to learn more about Mozart. I found myself googling him more and more throughout the book. He was really quite the character, a rock star of his time. He was a regular ladies man and he was terrible with his money. Their relationship was full of trials and tribulations, but whose marriage isn't? But that is what brought both characters to life for the reader. You also so Mozart as a man. A man who loved his mus... moreic but who loved women just as much. And you saw how that changed his marriage.I felt sorry for Konstanze. She had all that to deal with and she had several children, nearly dying in childbirth more than once, and with most of her children dying in their childhood.This is a fantastic book about Mozart and his family.If you haven't read any of Juliet's books, this is a great one to start with.
review 2: Sometimes an author creates a setting so strong you are totally emerged within it while reading. When that happens in a way where you don't notice it happened until you step back into your life, you know you are hooked by skillful writing. Such is the case with this author. I found myself being as angry with Mozart as his wife and as anguished in some of their apartments as was the always pregnant Stanza. What a ride the reader takes while living within the pages of this book. I want more. less
