On a brisk autumn day in 1686, eighteen year old Nella Oortman arrives in Amsterdam to begin a new life as the wife of illustrious merchant trader Johannes Brandt.

Set in seventeenth century Amsterdam--a city ruled by glittering wealth and oppressive religion--a masterful debut steeped in atmosphere and shimmering with mystery, in the tradition of Emma Donoghue, Sarah Waters, and Sarah Dunant.

"There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed . . ."

On a brisk autumn day in 1686, eighteen-year-old Nella Oortman arrives in Amsterdam to begin a new life as the wife of illustrious merchant trader Johannes Brandt. But her new home, while splendorous, is not welcoming. Johannes is kind yet distant, always locked in his study or at his warehouse office--leaving Nella alone with his sister, the sharp-tongued and forbidding Marin.

But Nella's world changes when Johannes presents her with an extraordinary wedding gift: a cabinet-sized replica of their home. To furnish her gift, Nella engages the services of a miniaturist--an elusive and enigmatic artist whose tiny creations mirror their real-life counterparts in eerie and unexpected ways . . .

Johannes' gift helps Nella to pierce the closed world of the Brandt household. But as she uncovers its unusual secrets, she begins to understand--and fear--the escalating dangers that await them all. In this repressively pious society where gold is worshipped second only to God, to be different is a threat to the moral fabric of society, and not even a man as rich as Johannes is safe. Only one person seems to see the fate that awaits them. Is the miniaturist the key to their salvation . . . or the architect of their destruction?

Enchanting, beautiful, and exquisitely suspenseful, The Miniaturist is a magnificent story of love and obsession, betrayal and retribution, appearance and truth.

The Best Disposable Dinner Plates I’ve Ever Used!
Size: 500 Count (Pack of 1), Color: Brown
The Best Disposable Dinner Plates I’ve Ever Used! We’ve been so happy with the other JOLLY CHEF products that we decided to try this larger pack of dinner plates too, and honestly, these are the best disposable dinner plates I’ve ever used. They’re sturdy, hold up well with heavier meals, and don’t get flimsy or soggy like many disposable plates do. I also appreciate that they’re made from sugarcane fiber instead of foam or plastic-coated paper products. They’ve been especially great for RV trips, family gatherings, and busy days when saving water and skipping a sink full of dishes is a huge plus. The large bulk pack is convenient to keep on hand, and I like that they’re eco-friendly and compostable while still feeling durable enough for real meals. Very happy with this purchase. I hope that this review helps you decide. I know it’s what I would’ve liked to hear when picking out compostable disposable plates.

Great paper plates
Size: 300 Count (Pack of 1), Color: Brown
I am very happy with the purchase of these plates as a healthier alternative to the coated paper plates you can buy in store. I was worried that they would get flimsy with wet foods but in my experience they hold their form and do the job intended and are durable. The size is great and allows a lot of food. I feel like thw price is fair and the quality is good. They are not decorated like the plates that are in store but I don't care about it being pretty. No harmful plastic or coating. Will definitely be a reoccurring purchase for our household.
