review 1: I enjoyed this book. I liked how Vincent Van Gogh was portrayed as a sympathetic person instead of a lunatic. I would have liked to have read more about Vincent as opposed to Rachel, the prostitute, who Vincent loves (remember the ear incident), but the story is historical fiction and Rachel's perspective. I do suggest that you have your ipad/kindle fire nearby while reading. In the back of the book Bundrick has listed the paintings that are mentioned in each chapter and it really added to my reading experience to view these masterpieces..
review 2: I couldn't even finish this book, it was that bad. This is not what I was expecting, truthfully. I judged this book by it's cover & thought it might paint a deeper picture of one of my favorite artists. It did not.T... morehis book comes off as some sort of dream a romance-ridden woman would come up with, like it was written in a journal (i.e. I had a dream about Van Gogh and I was a prostitute and...), it all seemed very contrived and Rachel, the main characters, reactions to things were a little dramatic. But again, this was a romance book so is that surprising? Hardly.It didn't capture me within the first hundred pages and I was not about to suffer through 200 more just to say with finality, 'this book sucks.'It seemed all too predictable and painted this weird picture like Vincent was not as disturbed as he actually was in real life. less
