After reading the first chapter of Truth and Beauty by Ann Patchett’s. What I immediately enjoyed about her work was the way that she wrote. There is a specific way in how she writes and that right away caught my attention. The storyline of Truth and Beauty was also really captivating right from the start. It made me interested in wanting to find out more and read more about the story. I also liked the way the author dove in and gave us all those details to better understand the character and what is happening in the story. A question that I have is what inspired her to write that story? Was it based on real life or was it made up?
