This was our latest book club pick. I did not like this book and only finished it because it was for book club. I actually didn’t have it finished in time for book club, but was assured at book club that it was very good and that the story would pick up. It did pick up-around page 200. I think I didn’t like it because the storyline would be interesting for a while and then nothing would happen for the next 75 pages and it went on and on like that and because it is supposed to be historical, but there is NO WAY that some of the things that happened in this book can be accurate. There just isn’t enough known about da Vinci himself, let alone his mother. If you read the reviews on Amazon, people either loved it or were skeptical like me.
