"Empathy is at the very core of our humanity. Life is pain without it." Chilling and suspenseful.

Amazing novel! I was seriously holding back tears reading on the subway. It was so moving. #SRC2016 book review will be up on the blog this evening. Thebookbasics.wordpress.com

A fantastic (emotional) read, so glad my book club went to see the movie. The book is always better, but the movie did a good job of portraying the highlights.

Loved this book the first time I read it, but am so excited to reread and share it with my book club in time for the movie premiere!

An intriguing look at a perfumer's world, filled with family drama, secrets, and love triangles.

Insanely captivating and disturbing. The twists and actions in the plot were so horrendous you are disgusted but can't put the book down. Do not read while home alone at night...

Heartbreakingly beautiful. Despite a slow start waiting for the characters to fall in love, by the time they did I was hooked and couldn't put the book down. Especially interesting perspective from Italian immigrants during WWII that isn't often told.
