Brilliance and Fire: A Biography of Diamonds by Rachelle Bergstein

5.0

This book outlasted the job I was reading it for.

Great read. Easy to read, but not because it’s unintelligent. The author has done her research and tells a fair and balanced story. Her subtitle, “a biography of diamonds” is accurate because that’s the style of the book — biographical. I’m thankful that this one was easy to pay attention to while I read the last half on a noisy family vaca.
