Darker
Still was delightfully strange and charming. Natalie Stewart, the book's unique
protagonist, was smart, quick-witted, brave, and unique to her age. Natalie is
a middle classed girl, mute, and enchanted by a new picture that is on loan to museum
of which her father is curator. The painting is of the young, gorgeous Lord
Denbury who disappeared shortly after the painting was finished. Lord Denbury,
however is not really gone; he is locked into his portrait. Natalie finds that
she can be drawn into the portrait and that with Lord Denbury, she can speak.
He needs her help, though because time is running out and he will soon be
trapped in the painting forever. The secondary characters are all wonderfully
drawn and unique. This book is charming, mysterious and a wonderful read. Leanna
Renee Hieber, you have a new fan!
