Cover for the audiobook of girl with a pearl earring by Tracy Chevalier
Currently listening to this audiobook. Love it and going to take a punt and predict it could well be a big hit for the author.

⭐⭐Na het lezen blijft er maar weinig hangen. Wat heb ik nu eigenlijk gelezen? Het verhaal kabbelt en hobbelt en boeit maar net aan genoeg om door te lezen. Ook voor de historische achtergrond hoef je het niet te lezen. Dan kun je beter een aflevering van Downton Abbey kijken.
Mijn leeservaring: […]

The book looks behind Vermeer's famous painting “Girl with the Pearl Earring” I don't think it will be interesting for anyone but the art afficionado, since it stays very much at the surface and doesn't dive deep.

Just finished this: The Glassmaker by Tracy Chevalier - really enjoyed it, so much that it inspired me to book a trip to Italy this year. The characters and story line were engrossing and believable.

La Mona Lisa vs. La Joven de la Perla.
¿Con cuál te quedas?
Me quedo con "La Joven de la perla", de #Vermeer, y con la novela de #TracyChevalier.
(También me gusta mucho la copia de #MonaLisa del Museo del Prado) 😜
