Daughter of Venice

Jeni Enjaian

I really enjoyed this book.The narrative is fluid yet historically solid. The protagonist was relatable and spoke with an appropriate age-level voice. I loved how Napoli wove history throughout the narrative without it becoming overwhelming or didactic. I loved the resolution too; the narrative was complete but not quite.
I definitely recommend this book.
