so-soRead for book club. Sped-read by me yesterday 😬. Liked by most in my club. A reasonably page-turning story of Murano glass makers in Venice, commencing in the 1400s. A time-warping device takes the reader through time to the present day.
Today‘s #libraryhaul. Getting ready for my spring vacation starting next week, April 7.
Here is a lovely book on the subject of antique Glass

bailedI‘ve enjoyed other Vreeland novels I‘ve read in the past. They‘re a bit slow-moving but she does a good job with historical fiction. But I just found that this one was dragging along TOO slowly and I really didn‘t like the character of Clara and found myself not looking forward to resuming the story. So, I bailed.
I didn‘t realize Vreeland had passed away in 2017.

For a moment I regretted using The Glass Books of the Dream Eaters for the Dream prompt at the beginning of the month, but then I remembered this pseudo-scifi chunkster.
