“There was a great sadness on the speed at which the days were getting shorter. As if they were trying to redeem something that was irredeemable. With a sense of heartache, I thought about September, when the ferocity of summer would abate.”

This quickly became one of my favorite books of all time. It’s easygoing, lighthearted and entertaining with a solid collection of memorable quotes (I’m at the end of my tether, truth be told). The plot was subtle yet compelling, and while the ending was shocking, it still felt satisfactory. I’m looking forward to challenging my Italian and reading the author’s other works.

I really enjoyed the writing and the story-telling in this book. I know that it was well done because I’m normally not one to like books or movies etc where the main character is a lousy drunk who can’t do anything right. This book kind of made me think of Inside Llewyn Davis, which is a movie I hate. I compared the two because the main character keeps doing annoying ass things and you just want to shake them and make them do what you think they should do.
However, I really enjoyed this book. I think the writing really helped the reader to understand Leo’s anguish and depression and struggle with alcoholism. I thought Arianna could’ve been a little more three dimensional. She was just kind of mentally ill and unstable without much else going on in her character. Overall quick read and enjoyed it.
