I read this graphic novel at the start of the year. It's a great biography on Monet's life and career, done in the impressionist style and mimicking some of his most famous works. A beautiful rendering of a passionate life 🪷

Black Water Lilies | Michel Bussi

so-so

'The novel ends with one of the most reverberating shocks in modern crime fiction.'
Well I guess the problem is with me then. The twist at the end really is neat, but I didn't enjoy the whole of the book. Instead of being intrigued and interested I was mostly annoyed and frustrated. I didn't like the detective and I wasn't much impressed with the writing (maybe the translation wasn't the best either). ⬇️

starlight97 I think I might've bailed if not for respect for the person who recommended it to me. 12mo

starlight97 What I liked about the book is that it taught me new things about a topic I didn't know much about (this time about Claude Monet and his legacy) and it did that well. 12mo

The Monet exhibit was wonderful!

Bookwormjillk Was it the one where they project it all around the room? 1y

Susanita @Bookwormjillk Yes! It‘s at the same place that had the Van Gogh exhibit earlier. 1y

Bookwormjillk @Susanita I saw that in Asheville and loved it. Such a different experience. 1y

So, there I was, enjoying this charming and intriguing murder mystery set in Monet's hometown of Giverny and being invested in all the interesting characters, when ...BOOM! Along comes a twist so subtle yet so seismic that it blows my socks off. I genuinely did not see it coming & I thoroughly enjoyed it! What a cracking read this one was! And the ending even touched my cold, cynical heart 💙
