Stone’s writing is beautiful, but the subject matter is bleak. I found it hard to connect with Van Gogh at times. The book is more depressing than enjoyable

I appreciate the historical detail, but the novel felt long and drawn out. I wish there was more action. The pacing felt extremely slow.

Lust for Life is an intense and immersive experience. I felt like I was right there with Vincent. Not always pleasant, but always captivating. I have mixed feelings, but enjoyed it overall.

A powerful, albeit depressing, look into Van Gogh’s struggles. Stone truly captures the artist’s passion, but be prepared for emotional turmoil. The ending was quite sad.

While the prose is beautiful, the constant misery became tiresome. I understand it was Van Gogh’s life, but it felt relentless. Could have been more balanced.

It was alright, but the writing style wasn’t for me. I didn’t feel connected to the characters. Story was good, but was not compelling.

Stone did a great job bringing Van Gogh to life. But the focus on his mental instability was overwhelming. Still, a worthwhile read.

It was good, but a little too depressing for my taste. I prefer a lighter story. If you like dark stories, this is for you.
