Ivy the Muse


Ivy: a novel by Julie Hearn
reviewed by Emma

Ivy is a very good and interesting book about a girl named Ivy with beautiful, red hair who became addicted to laudanum. One day, she is found by an aspiring young painter who is determined to make a mark on the world. He makes her his muse and she eventually is broken of her addiction to laudanum.

I love this book, but I don't think that the male gender would. At all. So, this is a book for women who want a story that draws you in and makes you hang on every word that is said, but I would say that girls under 9 wouldn't understand anything. So, if you want an awesome story that you will love (if you are a girl 9+) then read Ivy.
