From the stunning cover, to the absolutely gorgeous artwork within, this memoir is one that will certainly leave an impression on readers. Memoirs being my preferred genre, I was very excited and intrigued to get a look at the beginning chapters of this book. I was pleasantly surprised to see such exquisite artwork, portraits, and even the family lineage outlined. I love any memoir that gifts a reader with insight such as this one does. And then comes the magical writing....wow, how impressive. Adding this one to my TBR list right this minute.
