The Guy, the Girl, the Artist and His Ex
I have two copies of this novel; one I won and the other I received to review. This fabulous piece of art (see what I did there?) is told from four different POVs; Guy (the guy), Rafi (the girl), Luke (the artist) and Penny (his ex). It shows the way their lives interrelate after the infamous Weeping Woman portrait is stolen off the walls of the Melbourne Art Gallery. It was such an honest and real story that I absolutely adored. The characters were immensely developed and you couldn't helping feeling as if you knew them in real life. I was a tad frustrated with the ending, but all up, I found this book to be a wonderful Australian read!
