The Smile is a beautiful and heart-breaking story of the mysterious Mona Lisa that takes place during the Renaissance. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a book to curl up and read on a rainy day.
13 year old, Elisabetta is getting ready for a party, where she'll meet someone and become bethrothed to. Everything sounds perfect, she's happy and so are her loving parents. When they ride out to buy decorations, her mother's horse falters and cracks her neck in two.
With her beloved mother gone, things change. Her father remarries without thinking twice. And Elisabetta feels like her life will never be the same again. Soon, she falls in love with Giuliano de Medici. But politics draws them apart - for far too long. When he finally returns, things have changed.
Donna Jo Napoli has written a beautiful story that everyone should read. It reminds us to be satisfied and grateful with what life gives us, and that we can find peace and happiness in all our sorrow - only if we allow it.
