My Name Is Red by Orhan Pamuk

5.0

---

This was an excellent book. I'm in love with Pamuk's style, with the beauty and eloquence in which he narrates the story. The story itself is at once intriguing and transporting. It's a window into the Ottoman world and their perspective of art, with a murder mystery in the background. It's not an easy read. In fact, I finished three other books while I read this. But it is definitely worth your time and attention.
