I have read many books and The Impressionist is one of the best I have ever read.
I enjoyed it from the first page until the end.

I loved the stories within the story. It was a easy read but very thought provoking. I highly recommend this book.
What a wonderful book. I read this book last year and re-read it this week, it was such a uplifting and touching story. I would like to invite Jim Ed to dinner. We have not become, as a people, everything that God has intends us to be, but we have come so far from where we were.
