The Venetian Game by Philip Gwynne Jones
4.0

A surprisingly likeable narrator! I really felt sorry for Nathan and how he was dragged into the Venetian criminal art world with no notice but I did love how he told the story. Through his eyes, I saw Venice clearly (and now really want to go!) from the crumbling churches to the heaving touristy bridges.

A nice gentle read- no exciting action until 3/4 in but not boring.

(Side note: feel like if I didn’t love it or hate it it should be three stars but that just feels like a mean score?)
