- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A beautiful collection of quotes and illustrations from fictional female characters in various books. In Well Read Women, Samantha Hahn uses her beautifully elegant watercolor style to bring to life characters such as Emma by Jane Austin or Cosette from Les Miserables by Victor Hugo to name a few. This is only a collection of portraits and quotes and not a novel. A great coffee table book to flip through for the art and inspiration.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Simply stunning! The more I look the more I want to look. Highly recommend.
