Let's Discuss!

So....what does everyone think?  To be honest, I finished it long enough ago that I don't remember too much.  I remember liking it, and therefore reading it pretty quickly.  But I don't remember many details (something that regularly happens to me and books), and can't remember anything in particular that I was dying to discuss.  (Except, of course, the prologue.  And I already commented on that.)

How about you two?

Okay, so I am in the same boat on the reading it too long ago to have something on the tip of my tongue to discuss. When I responded to Natalie's prologue comment, I had just finished. But I enjoyed it, and I'd like to discuss it so I am going to refresh my memory today. By tomorrow morning, I will repost with something more substantive to say. In the meantime, I will take up Kathy's gauntlet - there are clearly births involved throughout the book that are central to either one of the characters or the plot as a whole. But Venus? Is that just to reference the centrality of art to the story? Did the author mean more than that - is there symbolism intended? Okay, I haven't helped myself since I now need to refresh my memory of both Venus and the painting itself. Sigh.
