I'm definitely excited to read this book, I adore historical fiction and pre raphaelite art, and the faces behind the paintings, as it were. This one is of high interest because it focuses on the women involved in the lives of the artists. #historicalfiction #art #book #reader #bookgeek #booklover #bookblogger #booknerd #kateforsyth
