I don't think the errors should prevent anyone, especially those who love a good suspense thriller, from enjoying this book.

Books with themes around Da Vinci are usually interesting, but the feel of romance and mystery makes this book more intriguing.

I am not sure if I would enjoy that much the painting mystery, but the romances connected through time sounds interesting. The slight supernatural touch is definitely plus for me. I am also interested about life in historical Italy. Thanks for the review.

This sounds like a really interesting blend of genres, as others have pointed out. I'm intrigued by the paranormal elements/characters and wonder how it would blend. Typically I don't seek out thriller novels, but the crossover with other genres makes me wonder if this might be a surprising favorite. Thanks for your review!

I have been in a huge thriller mood lately and this book sounds absolutely perfect for me! I thoroughly enjoy books which are based in older times, usually the 1890's, but the 1400's sounds just as interesting. The paranormal aspect only adds to the intrigue as I am a big paranormal fan. Your perfectly written review was a great introduction to this book and I cannot wait to give it a try!

Nice review.
Looks like a book I would really enjoy.
I have always loved reading anything related to Da Vinci and I’m sure this won’t disappoint also.

While this book sounds like an epic tale, the presence of heavy romance is a downer for me, though time travel and adventure are definitely a plus on its behalf.

I am not into painting exhibition so this plot isn't for me. Da Vinci was a famous artist and The Da Vinci Code was great too, so readers who find the theme intriguing may read it. Thank you for a great review!

The book description sounds promising. Although, I have seen a lot of comments about how the romance just strikes by the middle-end of the book. I like the artistic scenario, since I love art and especially fiction and non-fiction related to Da Vinci! I hope it's going to be a great reading! :techie-studyingbrown:

Thank you for your well-written review.
The Girl Who Knew da Vinci by Belle Ami has attracted my attention for a long time but I haven't gotten a chance to read it. I like the blend of mystery, history and romance. I find the different time periods much to my liking.

The catch has done enough to capture my attention. I enjoyed reading this review and since you say it's a romance story, I can certainly imagine who the couple might be, looking close to the individuals searching for the painting. This book would really be worth reading. Good review.

The Girl Who Knew Da Vinci is a thriller novel with a heavy dose of romance. The book makes flawless transitions from the 1400s era to the present day, and even flashbacks from Gerhard and his lover, Sophia in the World War II. Thanks for the review.
