A review by bellburn
The Birth of Venus by Sarah Dunant

5.0

This book was written for me. I was absolutely mad for as soon as I started reading it. It is written with beautiful candor. I wish I hadn't read other reviews because now I feel like an idiot that the plot kept me on my toes the whole time. Just when I thought I knew what was coming I was totally wrong in the best way. This might be one of my favorite books of all time. It felt so well researched, a seamless blend of history and fiction. I want to read it again already.
