The Venice Sketchbook Book Review

“The Venice Sketchbook ” is a good book that you can read online or download to read it later. Before starting the reading or downloading, here is the summary of the book that you can read. Caroline Grant is struggling to accept the end of her marriage when she receives an unexpected bequest. Her beloved great-aunt Lettie leaves her a sketchbook, three keys, and a final whisper…Venice. Caroline’s quest: to scatter Juliet “Lettie” Browning’s ashes in the city she loved and to unlock the mysteries stored away for more than sixty years. It’s 1938 when art teacher Juliet Browning arrives in romantic Venice. For her students, it’s a wealth of history, art, and beauty. For Juliet, it’s poignant memories and a chance to reconnect with Leonardo Da Rossi, the man she loves whose future is already determined by his noble family. However star-crossed, nothing can come between them. Until the threat of war closes in on Venice and they’re forced to fight, survive, and protect a secret that will bind them forever.

Brief Summary The Venice Sketchbook by Rhys Bowen

his said, I did enjoy The Venice Sketchbook. Lettie’s character, as revealed in her diary entries, was interesting enough to keep me invested in her story. Caroline seemed a little weak and flat, although part of the subplot is that a somewhat wimpy woman (both Caroline and Lettie) starts to find her voice and self once she is separated from the life that defined her. The romance elements were a little harder to digest. I was willing to suspend disbelief about Lettie and Leo because it seemed plausible enough, and I have known couples whose long marriages started off as “love at first sight.” The Caroline romance story seemed very contrived and felt more like a Harlequin Romance. Furthermore, what detracted from the book for me was that I could predict much of what would happen and that the ending felt abrupt. The fact that other characters’ fates are unconfirmed at the end is not a problem for me as it was for other readers, because it reflects the lack of information that many had in real life about their loved ones following the war.
